Empathy Is Not Weakness | Will Guidara
Empathy is not the opposite of Stoic strength. It’s part of what keeps that strength from becoming coldness. In today’s episode, Ryan talks with Will Guidara [https://www.instagram.com/wguidara/?hl=en], author of Unreasonable Hospitality [https://www.thepaintedporch.com/products/unreasonable-hospitality-the-remarkable-power-of-giving-people-more-than-they-expect-signed-by-author?_pos=1&_sid=23b8de636&_ss=r], about why empathy is one of the most powerful skills a leader can build. They discuss why hospitality is really about making people feel seen, the Stoic idea of slowing down to speed up, the importance of not wasting adversity, and why we should never let someone else’s bad behavior pull us away from the person we want to be.
