‘I have found the insight and tools that Emma has to share so incredibly useful as I navigate both my personal and professional spheres. Following the programme I am able to better recognise my own needs amongst the needs of others, and strategies as to how I can meet these meaningfully and sustainably. Emma is such a warm facilitator and brings her extensive professional and lived experience to the role. I would highly recommend that those experiencing the challenges that a strong empathetic leaning can offer invest in this programme and explore how they can truly take ownership of this incredible strength. You will leave empowered.’ Meg (Social Worker)

The Burden to Gift workshop was so beneficial in gaining more understanding of my empathy strength. I learnt new strategies for managing empathy and using it as a gift rather than being weighed down by it. I had the chance to share my experience of empathy and I felt heard and valued. It was great to be in a group with others and hearing the different experiences people have had. I loved the workshop, it felt like I was able to take some time to focus on myself and learn more about me. I loved the way Emma facilitates the workshop and I felt it worked really well over zoom!

I completed the workshop via zoom, where it was lovely to meet four other amazing people (including Emma) that have empathy in their top five strengths.  The workshop was great for me, as I definitely have felt that my empathy has been a huge drain on my daily life but with the conversations and exercises in the workshop that mentality was definitely turned around.   If you’ve struggled to balance out your empathy, then this workshop and now online course is for you…  I’m sure that you will find at least one great takeaway that will make a difference to your day. ~ Vanessa

‘I am a big fan of Emma’s empathy course, I have been recommending it to literally everyone! Coming from a health professional background and being in full time ministry, people are a key priority. Knowing how to look after myself and utilise my empathy is going to help me love people more!

The course layout was super helpful, going through the modules and then reflecting on them with others, helped to see that empathy is a gift, and there are some key tools to help use it to its fullest, eg boundaries! 

I am excited to see the fruit in my ministry and career after learning some key tools on how to utilise my empathy and put boundaries in place, so I can love people even more! – Grace
