You are an incredibly empathetic person, um, and I feel it so

Whatever you're doing is working well.

So I think it's great.

Um, you know, i the idea of empath, I've always sort of been on the fence of using that phrase, but as I get older

And realize that I really do sort of take on other people's feelings.

I'm realizing it it it is a thing, right?

Being an empath really is kind of a

um, an interesting thing.

And I think it can actually sometimes get in the way.

And I think that's what we see sometimes with differently wired kids who are really

feeling other people's feelings and they can't sort them out from their own feelings.

And that's I think that's one of the downsides of affective empathy, which is also I think sometimes called emotional empathy, instead of be able to sort of like feeling along with somebody else like their their emotions are most contagious.

And sometimes I know that I have to find a quiet space to back away.

because when, you know, at work or something and everybody's sort of overwhelmed by, you know, a change at work or something we had to to do, that's a big project.

I can feel all of their emotions and I have to s walk away and separate out what I'm actually feeling myself.

And I think like it can help you get along with other people, but it can get in the way sometimes too.

Because I think you can't always think rationally and and think through how you can talk to people or leave space for them when you're feeling their feelings.

But I think that there's sort of this blend that people that I that I think what you're talking about is that blend of being able to l to hold space for people.

Know that they're feeling something, but

Take their perspective.
