Day 2 focuses on the importance of empathy in communication. Through Brené Brown's animated video on empathy, participants will explore how truly understanding others' emotions can improve relationships, resolve conflicts, and foster connection. The lesson emphasizes that empathy goes beyond offering sympathy—it involves actively listening, acknowledging others' feelings, and responding with care. Participants will reflect on their own experiences with empathy and consider how to integrate it into their personal and professional interactions.
