Bonus Episode: Empathy vs. Emotional Over-Functioning

Welcome to a bonus episode of Personal Growth Sucks! I finished up Season 4 on the last episode and I’m not quite ready to launch Season 5, so in the meantime I’ll be sharing some bonus episodes on one-off topics.

Today I’m talking about the difference between emotional intelligence, empathy, and emotional over-functioning. I’ll share the key components of empathy, how empathy is different from emotional over-functioning, and six tips for staying out of the trap of emotional over-functioning.
