Reviews

Thanks, Glenn and Ben for this VERY INTERESTING conversation.
Having been aware of my God-Given Gift of Empathy from a fairly young age , and learning more about it over the years (via experience) I really appreciate your perspectives on this Gift.
I would personally disagree with your statement that “feeling other people’s feelings isn’t useful”, (which I don’t believe was your intended meaning) because I believe that being able to “feel” what someone else might be feeling is the CORNERSTONE of “Empathy”.
I’ve heard Empathy described as, “YOUR PAIN IN MY HEART”, which aptly describes what I experience.
But I also WHOLE-HEARTEDLY agree that “Taking on those Emotions without Coupling that ability with Logic and Wisdom” (NOT ALLOWING the EMOTIONS to Cloud the true purpose of the Gift) negates the Practical Abilities that come along with the gift.

LOVE your Talks and all the WISDOM they contain❣️🙏🏻💕
