#EP 92: The Emotional Compass; Cultivating Deep Connections Through Empathy w/ Shermin Kruse- Stoic Empathy Specialist

06 Aug 2024

Description

In this week’s compelling episode, we welcome Shermin Kruse, a stoic empathy specialist dedicated to helping individuals and companies evolve through thought-provoking dialogue. Growing up in Iran during a time of conflict, Shermin found refuge in her home, where her parents encouraged a love for reading and the pursuit of knowledge. This nurturing environment taught her that the true nature of a society's people is not defined by its political turmoil but by the character and values of the people. After immigrating to America, Shermin's experiences with the realities of being an immigrant shaped her understanding of human nature and and the intricacies of social power structures, reinforcing her principles of integrity and resilience. She now channels these life lessons into her work, teaching the concept of stoic empathy—the ability to maintain emotional control while connecting deeply with others. This episode delves into how Shermin translates her rich tapestry of experiences into actionable teachings. We'll explore how stoic empathy can be effectively practiced in various scenarios, from personal relationships to professional environments- as we discover the profound impact that understanding and mastering this skill can have on enhancing communication, fostering compassion and building stronger, more empathetic communities.
