The Power of Empathy in Building Deeper Connections

Empathy is not about being nice, but about gaining deeper understanding through objective perspective-taking. It is important to step out of our own biases and see the world from different perspectives. Empathy doesn't require agreement or sympathy, but rather allows us to feel with others. Empathy can be a learned skill and practiced like a muscle, leading to increased natural empathy over time.
