When you care deeply about people, it’s natural to think empathy is the goal. To understand, to feel, to be present with others in their pain. But empathy alone can wear you down, especially when you’re holding space for conversations about race, identity or belonging.

In this episode, I’m sharing how compassion shifts how we hold space. It’s what moves us from just merely understanding to moving in the direction of deeper sustainable care.

I share:

🎙 Why empathy sometimes keeps us stuck in the feeling rather than the doing
🎙 How compassion offers protection and perspective when the work feels heavy
🎙 Different ways compassion is modelled in Scripture, as love that moves
🎙 And how this lens can help you build an inclusive business that nourishes both you and the people you serve.

If you’ve been wondering how to keep showing up without losing heart, this conversation will help you find a rhythm that’s grounded, gentle and full of purpose.
