Description

We can sometimes experience apathy as a coping mechanism, or as a lasting impact of stressful situations we've been through. We've also seen firsthand the impact of empathy - how small acts of kindness pave the way for a transformative journey for ourselves and our community! 

This episode dives into understanding what apathy is, how to cultivate empathy, and how to balance both to stay informed and engaged without leading to burnout or overstimulation.

Tune into this episode with licensed professional Vanessa De Jesus Guzman to understand apathy and empathy, and how certain emotions can guide our mindset and actions.
