About this listen
What happens when life collides with work in ways you can’t ignore?
In this heartfelt episode, Donna, Lisa, and Dr. Russ open up about the uncomfortable, but essential, role of empathy in the workplace. From navigating personal grief while leading a team, to the power of a simple check-in call, to celebrating others’ wins without envy, they reveal how small choices of compassion can ripple across lives and organizations.
If you’ve ever wondered how much to share at work, or how to respond when a colleague is hurting (or thriving), this episode offers honest stories and practical wisdom that will change the way you see empathy at work—and remind you that sometimes the smallest gestures matter most.
