Episode 023: How do I have empathy for those who disagree with me?
Published 4 years, 2 months ago
Description
It's not easy to hold your ground in the face of disagreement - rather than react and cause the other side to dig their heels in. How do you respond in a way that increases the likelihood of fruitful discussion? Empathy is the best way in my opinion. Remember empathy is not the same as agreement - it's simply a way to understand where your interlocutor is coming from so that you have the best information to then respond in a reflective manner rather than a reactive one.
