Ep. 1113 – Using Empathy to Transform Pain Into Public Good with Liz Moyer Benferhat (@WeHealforAll)

“Emotions aren't here just to overwhelm us. They're actually here to guide us.” – Liz Moyer Benferhat

Today’s featured fellow bestselling bookcaster is a wife, mom, empath, changemaker, teacher, facilitator, and sustainable development practitioner, Liz Moyer Benferhat. Liz and I had a fun on a bun chat about her book, “When the World Hurts: Why the World’s Pain Makes Sense—and What You Can Do About It”, the importance of emotional intelligence in polarized times, and more!!

Key Things You’ll Learn:

How feeling the world's pain led Liz from traditional nonprofit work to a more spiritual, healing-centered approach

Her approach to her transition from a stable job to entrepreneurship

Her personal strategy for connecting with family members who have different political views

Three major lessons she learned from starting, growing, and running her podcast
