## Resource

Join us on Tuesdays : HERE What does it actually mean to empathize with someone? And how is that different from compassion? In this Reading Room discussion on Brené Brown's Atlas of the Heart , we explore empathy, compassion, boundaries, and the Enneagram. Together, we wrestle with why some of us instinctively fix, others merge, and others withdraw—and how each type can grow in learning to truly be present with another person's suffering. #Enneagram #BreneBrown #Empathy #Compassion #ReadingRoom
