The Empath
"I’ve learned that people will forget what you said... but they will never forget how you made them feel. – Maya Angelou"

The Empath is a deep feeler with an open heart. Their emotional sensitivity and social intuition make them attuned to others in a way few can match. They connect easily, care deeply, and give generously. But this emotional radar is a double-edged sword,they absorb others’ stress, overthink what they said yesterday, and burn themselves out trying to be everything for everyone. Still, when healthy, Empaths are the soul of any team or movement.
