Truly appreciated these letters and this article about the differences with sympathy, empathy, and compassion. This can help a friend who's grieving or going through a difficult time. Very often, people don't know to say or to know that they don't have to say or fix anything, just hold space.
Brené Brown's video is fabulous. "I know what it's like and you're not alone."
"I don't know what to say but I'm glad you told me."
I really needed to listen to this today. Thank you for the deep girl that all of these writers have undergone to understand true compassion, and empathy.
Thank you, Victoria, You understand the load of caregiving. I have little time to create as I want, and a new name is coming for my Substack. I need to just do it. THX for your kind words. hugs back to you.
Hey Cathy, also good to hear more about your early family life. I am sorry for that, and it is this kind of exclusion that teaches us to find extended family. I am glad to know a small part of who you are.

Really priceless😊
Victoria has created a wonderful place of healing. It’s quite unique. I’m so happy this resonated with you!
I think you'll be touched by Janine's letter, and also her publication, Cathy. xo
This just happened to be exactly what I needed today. Thank you!!
I'm glad, Hannah. Some days, a blanket of empathy restores the soul. xo
Most days! 💗
Remarkable project that is highly relevant and needed for the times we are living in. Thanks for taking on this and sharing.
Thanks, Paulette! Exactly! Thank you for sharing — enabling the network of empathy and compassion to spread further!
The project continues next week with a slightly different angle.
Thank you, Paulette. The letters Victoria shares are incredibly inspiring. I’m so happy you enjoyed the post!
