The Other Side of Empathy with Adam Quiney

The Prosperous Empath® Podcast

On this episode of The Prosperous Empath® Podcast, I’m sitting down with Adam Quiney, an Executive Leadership Coach for leaders and high performers. Adam left a successful career in law because he didn’t want to shut his empathy down, and in our conversation we’re exploring an interesting topic that I haven’t touched on the podcast before: the “other side” of empathy. Adam and I talk about the ways in which our empathy can get twisted by fear and discomfort as well as the survival strategies we can create for ourselves as empaths and HSPs. Tune in to deepen your understanding of your empathic nature and build up your emotional vocabulary.

Topics:

• How Adam went from a career in law to becoming an Executive Coach for leaders and the role empathy played in his story
• What we can learn from the “other side” of empathy & the liability of having a wide open heart
• Understanding behavior patterns and survival mechanisms we develop as empaths (and what to do about them)
