🪞 What if empathy wasn’t just a soft skill—but a superpower?
In this thought-provoking episode of The Forties Formula podcast, hosts Jasmin Dhillon and Amanda Lim sit down with MIMI NICKLIN—empathy advocate, bestselling author of Softening the Edge, and global voice for conscious leadership.
Together, they unpack the emotional weight women carry in midlife, and how reclaiming empathy—for ourselves and others—might be the key to everything from better parenting to powerful leadership.
In this episode, we explore:
Whether you’re burned out from over-giving, stuck in comparison cycles, or quietly questioning your purpose… this one’s for you.
