About this listen
Leaders who've experienced loss often believe their empathy makes them more effective. When a team member shares personal struggles, that deep understanding feels like the perfect tool to help. But sometimes the very quality that makes you approachable becomes the thing that breaks trust with your team.
In this episode, I explore the dark side of empathy through a personal story that changed how I lead. I thought my own experience with loss made me the ideal person to support a team member, but instead, our interaction revealed how crossing from supportive leader to emotional caretaker can damage the relationships we're trying to strengthen.
