When empathy grows into compassion, it becomes more helpful for both you and the person for whom you demonstrate it. Empathy feels good to give, but you may feel someone’s pain so deeply that you’re not even able to act. Compassion allows you to practice metacognition and rise above the pain so you can treat the need. In this episode, Tim and Andrew give practical steps on how you can move from empathy to compassion and discuss why we must choose to grow compassion for the next generation.
