“Empathy isn’t weakness—it’s leadership.”
It takes strength to absorb emotion without reflecting it back.
[Lesson 6.2] Empathy isn’t about absorbing someone else’s pain—it’s about understanding it without losing your grounding. True leaders don’t mirror chaos; they calm it. When you can absorb emotion, process it with clarity, and respond with compassion, you demonstrate control and courage. Empathy transforms conflict into connection and tension into trust. That’s not weakness—it’s the quiet strength that defines great leadership.
