When someone is upset with you or you suspect they might be annoyed about something you’ve done - do you instantly feel guilty?

When you see someone experiencing negative emotion - do you feel like it’s your job to try and fix it? And feel super uncomfortable until you know they’re okay again?

If so - this episode is for YOU.

I’m talking all about the difference between empathy and taking responsibility for other people’s emotions.

And how to let go of responsibility, while still being a compassionate friend, partner, or family member.
