Why are you interested in taking the Empathy Circle Facilitator Training?
Because I want to train others in practicing empathy within their groups, families, friends, organizations. I would like to start by organizing empathy circles with fellow therapists and try to introduce this practice within the multinational organization I'm currently working at - I believe bringing more empathy at the workplace will help the teams feel more understood and motivated.
Because I want to train my empathy muscle even more by organizing Empathy Circles in various groups of people as i believe it is one of the best ways to spark the fire of change
Because I want to spread the concept of Active Listening and to organize Empathy Circles with people outside the therapeutic community, in order to help creating an empathetic community.
I would like to help my local facilitator, train to be a better listener and talker in my personal relationships, and apply this in my work with mental health.
In order to improve myself to be able to give back to my comunity
I think it can only help me in my daily life and in my work. I also would really like to make other people's lives better and more whole and I think this could help me to do that.
I really enjoyed the training session that I took part in and thought it would be valuable to continue to hone my skills with empathy circle training.
I'm interested in learning how to really actively listen to others and hear more about others backgrounds to see where they're coming from.
To help my students that I tutor feel heard and respected. To help them connect with an adult who will take their emotions seriously.
At first, I was there for Pandemic Professors. However, as time goes by, I'm starting to understand that I really need this skill. So, I would love to take part in the Empathy Circle Facilitation Training course.
I'd like to bring NVC, empathy and empathy circles to local communities here, especially to XR. I don't have any experience or official titles related to therapy of any kind, so I'm looking for opportunities to organize events/workshops/circles, to learn how do facilitate them and to gain confidence in my ability to do so. Empathy and emotional support are often considered as professional business and there's no room and chance left for communities to learn how to provide their own empathy needs. I'd like very much to change that, and have a sustainable supply of empathy and support that grows together with the community.
I am an educator and mediator, I have some experience in circle facilitation and want to learn and explore empathy circles more

I would like to continue experiencing the being empathized with, and create a space where others can experience it as well. I sense that if people show up consistency in an empathy circle it can foster greater connectedness and restore our sense of living in a friendly humanity.
Personal skills in family, community and business circles

I LIKE....What did you like about todays Introduction Café?
I liked the structure of the course, how we first discussed what's expected from us and we got to practice. Also, how personal it got for all the speakers in the 2nd and 3rd part of sharing and the way i really felt i was heard and understood, even though i hadn't met any of the participants before. The sense of belonging and closeness I experience in this type of groups never ceases to amaze me
I loved how we could talk about non-native English speakers and how comfortable i felt even though it is not the easiest thing for me to do to reflect what someone is saying in a different language than Romanian. Also, the fact that there have been so many participants, it really offers me hope for a change in the world.
I liked the ideas Bill shared regarding best ways/practices to attract people to empathy circles (10 minutes listening card) and the key takeaways one should leave with after participating: understanding the value of empathy after experiencing it and finding out if they have the skills by actively listening.
The open access and diversity of people; the simplicity of the rules and the concept, getting to put into practice immediately; the lack of criticism/quantitative feedback ("you're not good at this, you did this wrong")
I liked it was so enlightening and refreshing and that I was heard respectfully.
It was a good training exercise in active listening and not trying to make what someone was saying to me mean something different as I was trying to translate it.
I really enjoyed that I was able to gain some insight about how empathy circles can help me as a better communication skill in my everyday life. I felt like I was able to connect with the process personally in that way.
I really liked that it was such a safe place for everyone to speak and listen.
The connection and bonding
I love how the system is built. I definitely felt more comfortable in a smaller circle, baby steps. Everyone was so welcoming and supportive, I think that this is a very healthy place to be and grow.
The clear introduction of the circle's process, the calm energy, the pleasure of giving and receiving empathy and connecting with people, even total strangers, it's so powerful
great experience to practice and connect with new people
I liked being able to really pay attention to what people were saying and be heard. The enthusiasm, the topics we got to talk about, all those new things I get to dig into more.
The inclusion and safety in the small room. I began to feel I am a part of a very close group of friends in no time
There was a group member with network issues. How this presented an opportunity to stretch our ears to hear her was a learning
I liked getting into groups and I liked people’s energy.
I liked getting into groups and I liked people’s energy.
I liked meeting new people and connecting with them.
The fact that I got the opportunity to slow down and truly listen
This is my second cafe - I felt more relaxed and that there was a great feeling of connection among everyone.
I like that I felt so much more relaxed towards the end of the training.
I like the function of an empathy group and how it is practiced
I liked meeting like minded people and feeling constructive.
Like minded people consciously creating a lovely environment
Connecting with new people
beautiful
I felt it was very thorough. I appreciated the introductions so we could "meet" everyone, I felt the video that described the process was both clear and succinct, and then getting to practice for an hour was great.
The explanations were very clear. I appreciate the opportunity to practice with facilitators who knew the practice well
I really liked the positive atmosphere in the call and the work of the facilitator during the practice.
Graham and how he facilitates
I liked the space provided to practice empathy circles and the lovely conversation my group had.
I like being listened to.
I appreciated the opportunity to connect with people across the world. It also felt really special to be able to connect with people on such a deep level, given how isolated the world feels during quarantine.
I met with people from completely different backgrounds. Not just different locations, but different ages, genders, and learning styles.
Sharing what was alive
It was a place everyone could feel comfortable.
willingness of folks to share; the practical effect of the structure in creating space for deep listening.
They did a really good job explaining what it is and the different cohorts and what they were about..
it was well explained and the format of the dialogue was easy enough to understand.
Everyone was willing to come as they were
The process
It was warm, inspiring, simple, yet deep and fulfilling.
I very much appreciated the atmosphere of generosity of the call. People were quite generous in that they were open, honest, and willing to share. One of the reasons I joined the call was that I wanted to learn about becoming a better listener and I was grateful that my fellow participants shared so much and actually gave me something to listen to. I liked that some were honest about their anxieties, sleepiness, and doubts.
I felt a sense of familiarity because three of us had participated in an empathy group last week, so I felt a bit more comfortable and less of a "stranger". I also like how we each spoke about personal and meaningful experiences and thoughts. It was very enriching, and offered an experience of "we are all in this together", and we can relate to one another's experiences in some way.
Simplicity
I like the structure of the Café and the circle which helps me feeling secure and having my need for safety met. In the circle we had a deep connection around vulnerably things in people's life which make me feel humble and thankful, because I'm longing for deep connection - and it also leaves me with hope and trust for humanity and the world.
I appreciated the introduction to the process, everything was clear and worked like a charm. The environment was friendly and welcoming, the host and the participants as well.
I loved how we practiced being present in what each of us had to say instead of trying to talk over each other and get in our own thoughts.
I liked that we did a empathy circle.
I worked as a facilitator (trainee). Valuable experience. Broke the ice.
Clear. The implications of what is described needs to be experienced. Some people were surprised.
I didn't like the introduction cafe nearly as much as the breakout rooms.
diversity and organization

The group I was a part of. Training my listening skills

Meeting new people, being given an opportunity, friendliness, patience, and understanding.
I liked the empathy circle
empathy circle
The practice was so helpful, I learned so much from both listening and sharing.
its such a rich experience, and gives me a sense of hope and healing
The topic was why is it important for XR to embrace Empathy Circles, and in our group we spoke about empathy being the missing link for everyone, whether professionally, in relationships, and especially XR because we need to be in the right place to do actions rather than face them with trepidation and fear and only in post action do the truthful active listening.
That it was a safe space for us to share and also be heard.
I liked doing the practice for an extended period. Edwin and Bill really modeled the speaking and listening really well, sharing deep passion for the work. It was really engaging and inspiring. I liked hearing Edwin's ambitious vision.
I liked how we had to practice not asking questions or following up, rather just listening. It was a challenge for sure
I liked how it felt to be participating in the circle, I haven’t done anything like this for a long time and it was very affirming and positive.
I liked how it felt to be participating in the circle, I haven’t done anything like this for a long time and it was very affirming and positive.
Really good to experience a different group. I was unsure about the dynamic in the group tonight and I felt a bit overwhelmed by one or two people. Perhaps it was just a very different experience to the other circles I've been in.
friendly people
There was a enough time for 4 rounds, and the reflections were deeper with each round.

I liked meeting people from around the world and having an open and deep conversation that I wouldn't have normally had.

the honesty and insight of those who participated in my group
I enjoyed the very genuine human warmth that I felt towards my fellow participants.
I liked hearing about how building empathy could improve career and personal growth.
I liked speaking to a diverse cohort and just being able to random things and feel heard
The structure of the circle was very welcoming;
I liked being able to express freely, being heard, letting other participants know that the I'm genuinely interested in what's alive in them, and sharing with other what's alive in me.
The facilitator in our breakout room, Cat, was a great example of empathetic listener
I liked the demo on how the circle worked
The small group process, the way the conversations flowed - i thought it might feel stilted but it didn't, the presence everyone brought.
got to the point and then the circle!
Listening exercise
Knowing about others and learning more about the process
it was really beneficial chance to facilitate
I enjoyed the process and results experienced in today's intro. On a feelings level - not my strength - it brought trust, comfort, connection, healing and self-care to my world in those two hours.
Hearing from others

I liked that everyone got a chance to speak.

I like how we were taught to actively listen and reflect on others' thoughts.
The chance to experience and practice
I loved that we went straight into practice, how there were people from different backgrounds and with different experiences with empathy circles. I loved how honest everyone was despite us being complete strangers.
Everyone had to participate
The capacity of people to listen and follow the process and work so hard to make it work.
simple, straightforward, no fuss down to business (once the first half hour had gone), experience of connection was very sweet indeed. Thank you.
The trust , openness and the connection that unfolded.
I like that the practice is quite simple and people were willing to say they were nervous
It was special that it was so small
First and foremost, I so much appreciate that they exist, that there are people who put so much effort in and get that up!
meeting and listening to all the people in the zoom room
Direct experience. Getting the experience of people giving really thorough reflection.
I loved that people from all around the globe were present. I felt a sense of connection. And our little group with Priyanka felt instantly really connected.
The aha moments, multiple

the coalescing of my group's participants, feeling the physical barriers between us dissipate
the willingness to listen by others
I liked the structure, as everyone in the circle got a chance to speak and reflect on what being said. Everyone spoke about what was on their mind.
It was wonderful! I loved the method, the people, and the way I felt during it and by the end of it!
It made me happy
I liked that we got to practice in a smaller group.
I liked everything
Being able to practice
I like listening
Thank you, I truly appreciated the space for connection with a diverse group of people - people coming together from all parts of the world to try to cultivate a more empathetic society.
everthing
The opportunity to practice
People getting to talk about whatever is alive in them.
diverse participants
I liked connecting with others who also feel the world lacks empathy!
Everyone shared and it felt safe from the off.
Experimental aspect
Practising active listening/being active listener
I like the way you work in groups in order to practice listening, active listening and allowing yourself to be vulnerable in being a Speaker
I liked the fact that this course is universal across the world and can impact the world in a positive way
The idea of giving feedback in the empathy circle was eye opening and something new
meeting everyone
Good atmosphere. Nice people and interesting learnings from the participants.
It was an authentic experience that permits you to learn others
The active listening and conversations.
Feeling heard, being able to reflect back to another person, having heart-to-heart connections with others
Practicing active listening and reflecting what others expressed was good experience.
The feelings of safety and trust and genuine interest from the people in my breakout group was inspiring.
I Liked today's Introduction Café
Being Heard
It was a safe space and I net many awesome people.
Felt Very Organic, Safe, Connectedness, Transformative
yes
This was so well-timed with the current zeitgeist, and the change in people's capacity to relate empathically with one another. I am eager to get involved in becoming a facilitator.
Meeting new people and feeling comfortable
The opportunity to experience the active listening activity multiple times
The lead in and then the experience of the practice session
The explanation about the circles, fish bowls, etc. Explanation of what and how they work.
Very informative.
Watching and listening to the active listening and speaking.
I WISH... What would you have wished for in the introduction?
There is nothing I wished for from the course, maybe just to spend more time with the group. I felt a sense of curiosity towards meeting the members from the other breakout rooms.
Nothing that i can think of at the moment
I think it was just perfect
It was fine I wouldn't really change it
Doing is learning, so even though I wish there was more instruction I think that's just my fear and need for control talking.
I was not present for the introduction so I'm not sure.
It was a little shorter and not right in the middle of work hours (weekends preferred)
A longer session. Because it really was lovely.
I'm not sure what I'd change, my 1st time there ^_^ One thing that bothered me is that sometimes people didn't talk about their feelings, and the simple instructions we got made it difficult to give empathy, since just repeating their words wouldn't work. But I don't know what I'd change about that, maybe nothing, just enjoy the benefits of those clear instructions. Perhaps refer somewhere to slightly deeper instructions/hints for giving empathy (seeing feelings not expressed in clear words, separating feelings from thoughts, when and how to interrupt someone to bring them back to the present, when and how to ask the speaker actively about their feelings rather than just summarizing their words)
I would have needed to know how much time we have in the circle - maybe I didn"t hear that
I wish I had heard about it sooner!
I think whatever I wished for was given to me.
It is goo as it is
I wish we could have a discussion in our groups to just talk and answer each other.
I wish we could have a discussion in our groups to just talk and answer each other.
I wish we had more time to discuss!
everything was great, but perhaps better time management. But its zoom after all.
Nothing - it was great.
I wish that there would be more flexibility in the number of upcoming events.
I wished I was able to work with another group in the time allotted to see how other facilitators operate.
It was good as it was.
One thing I did feel was that a worry I couldn't save the links within the zoom chat so it would be good to know of somewhere outside of zoom to find them so I don't miss anything.
Nothing more. I felt it was bang on.
It's good as it is.
Nothing.
I think it was very good as it was.
Maybe more tips for organizing or taking part of our first empathy circles as facilitators.
A feedback round at the end of the practice within the empathy circle group. Would have been nice to share our thoughts/feelings in the practice group.
The information provided was helpful. I don't think there was anything to be wished for that was lacking.
I wish my family and friends would join
I wish it could have gone on for longer!
N/A
Where to donate to the cause in every empathy circle to remind everyone
A link to the donation portal.
Nothing to add at this point
Not sure.....I don't think anything
I can't think of anything.
Nothing......is that an answer lol ^_^
a different time (too late /early morning in India)
I had a great time but I think the activity ended right as I was just getting comfortable enough to share and reflect the sharings more. A longer time for the actual Empathy Circle would have been appreciated BUT I do like how this feeling of wanting more of the experience is just reassuring me that signing up for the training was a great idea. I'm looking forward to participating in more circles and even eventually facilitating some.
Not sure.
Nothing coming to mind, it was pretty thorough in my opinion
A video with an example of a process in the circle
I think the introduction was ok
Nothing different. I liked this very much!
Nothing extra. Thank you.
See above
It would be nice to have large breakout rooms for introductions and small ones for the conversations.
I wish we had a short live demo before diving straight into it. I think the video provided some insight but I still felt a little lost.

N/A
It was just right.
Brief talk about self more.
An example of types of things you can ask or share in the circle.
I didn’t know if I was in the right place at first, but i was a little late and hoped that if I hung in there, it’d become clear.
I'm unable to answer this because I thought the introduction gave valid examples, etc.
n/a
Maybe a little more breakdown of the practice...some of it came out as we were sharing anyway, but perhaps it would have been nice to upfront have named some things like - it's normal to anxious, you don't need to get it 'right' as a listener, as a speaker you can clarify where you haven't felt heard etc.
Well I had to miss the first half hour so I can’t say for sure what I wish for because it probably happened in the beginning.
Well I had to miss the first half hour so I can’t say for sure what I wish for because it probably happened in the beginning.
Maybe make it more clear that there is only one facilitator?
more time for conversation
Nothing. I felt very supported throughout.
the requirement for 2 circles prior to starting means I have yet to be able to sign up. Wondering if there more that can be shared? Also patient.
I can't think of any at the moment.
exactly the way it is.
it was perfect
It would be neat to know more about the impact of empathy circles currently--some mention was made in regard to the outreach work with physicians in New York but I would have loved to hear how the empathy circles translated to their work environment.
I wish I could have continued to talk to my group.
Perhaps a brief overview of what Pandemic University and Extinction Rebellion is - for those of us not familiar with these organizations! :)
An opportunity to express my hopes?

Some examples of topics covered, how they have impacted divided groups
Missed this part
I thought it was an excellent introduction
Lemme give it some thought.
Would like to get into the facilitation training ... looking forward to having enough peeps.
I wish in a way that the session was shorter because there comes a point where topics for discussion are exhuasted, but I also notice and realize how the length of it actually allowed for better connections.
NA
It was a good introduction
What I got
I wish the overall length of the training were shorter than 2 hours.
It was great already - perhaps a story shared of how ECF training has helped someone?
I dont have any wishes it was great!
Not much reallly
I wish we had a list of topics we could talk about
To emphasize that empathic listening is a life-long ongoing process and it takes practice
Nothing more - immense gratitude for all those facilitating
N/A
I wish there was the possibility to sign up for a training directly but I guess I'll wait. I wish I could meet with the people in person but I guess that can also wait.
Some indication of what we might talk about in the circle.
it took half an hour before it got started. I nearly left. I have adhd and it was a real challenge to force myself not to leave. If we had to have intros, which Im not sure of the value of, it would be names and place only. folks will use a lot of words and take time, when I came to learn a process. I guess Im also autistic so it was a bombardment of stop start stop start. Very difficult. I long for inclusion for neurodiverse folks.
Everything was very well organized
A little clarification about whether to use the speakers words or go beyond them, would be useful
A little more info about whether to use speakers words or paraphrase
I can't say I missed something.
I wish I could have prepared some general questions about my situation on human relationship for today's class
Hop in with demonstration instead of talking about it. We saw a video. Then, Edwin talked about it. Then, our group facilitator talked about it. I could get into it more quickly and in a more satisfying way just to see it and then have a facilitator describe what had just happened.
I am a bit lost as to where to go next
It was great, l got just as much out of the second one as the first.
I think it covered it all.
a bit longer
An element of responding to someone's speech and to ask for more information
i wished to be a good listener
..that I had arrived in better time being able to fully concentrate
N/A
Our occupation, people had a tendency to mention their occupation.
It was fine, I wouldn't change a thing.
It would have been good to have people use their full names and location in their Zoom identity. It would also have been good to know how to reach other participants.
???
Its apt the way it is.
I joined with no expectation
Nothing comes to mind. It was what I expected and met my needs :)
I cannot think of a better introduction, it was simple and engaging.
Not sure. I was late
There were a few more items in our introduction.
I was tardy for the introduction
I wished I could have learned more about Edwin's aha moment that was his catalyst to starting this open source training in empathy.
I loved it! The best thing, I think, is clarity at each stage -- what is the brief intro. supposed to include (scope at each stage), etc....but it was a wonderful experience as-is!
nothing, particularly, though I think some might have found it helpful to know it's okay for them to take notes during their empathic listening

I would have appreciated the opportunity to receive feedback & improvement tips
Honestly, there is nothing further.
?Nothing more
I wish I would have found this practice sooner.
A little more basic info about why, or what challenges an empathy circle seeks to meet.
Good as is
I wish I knew that this wasn't the actual training, I was a little confused when we started, because I thought it was the Facilitator Training, but I'm happy that we were able to have this time in the Cafe, to see if this is something we actually want to move forward with.
The introduction was fine
An overview of the program
wishes were granted
nothing special
I wish my technology didn't malfunction and it could have been a little longer. I really loved it!!!
I was very satisfied with content and process
The introductory was satisfactory. The best way to learn is through experience.
I came on late and missed the introduction.
I Wish in the Break-Out training groups - as being instructed & directed "How To" in a more "Organic" kind of way, instead of "Not Like that" "That"s the Wrong Way"...more "Malleable"is all
Nothing
It was fine!
More Simply Mach Active Listening & Speaking and the Possibility of Experiencing Empathy

That we could do both: Fishbowl and then Small Groups
Possibly for shy people, prepare them to be ready to speak if comfortable, so we know that we could possibly wish to participate. Camera ready, etc.
The directions were explained a bit better. We did not understand that we could speak back or address things that we did not agree with
NA
What other questions, comments, insights, etc. do you have about the training?
It's one of my first experiences of reflecting somebody in English, so i have a feeling I did not manage to capture everything the other was saying, even though i spend everyday talking in English from a business point of view, I find it more difficult to access my feeling and reflect the other's than it is in my mother tongue. In my private practice, all of the clients I work with speak Romanian and I feel more authentic and congruent expressing myself in it. But I guess with practice it will get easier and I am up for the challenge.
I signed up for Cohort 9 and had participated in 2 Introduction Cafes, will also be attending the one next week. As i have seen there are few spots left for this Cohort, could you please let me know if there is one left for me, too? :) It would be difficult for me to attend the other one starting in March, because unfortunately the timezone it doesn't suit me
I love how the experience is always different, but the feeling of being listened to and understood stays with me after every session
Looking forward to the next cohort forming at a European-friendly time of day! Thank you :)
I'm way to thankfull for you for having created this space
I'm confused by the cohorts and when they start. I would like to have a list of start dates and times.
I can't wait to take part in my next training! I felt very positive from the experience and like I gained a lot of empathy for the people in my empathy circle.
It was insightful to practice empathetic listening as opposed to sympathetic listening
I just want to say thank you for everything. I just would like to join.

extremely grateful for the work you're doing.
This is great training for personal listening - it helps me be much more present. I keep thinking that young people would really get into this and am thinking how I can facilitate that in my area.
Are there specific learning objectives outlined that would be measured?
Is there a theory/written component of the training as well as the practical sessions?
What is the average/ideal time commitment going forward of a facilitator once trained?
Do they need to participate with a certain number of facilitating hours to maintain their status or to develop to be a trainer for facilitators?
Just generally developing more appreciation for the way that I am included within the community. Thank you.
It's still enjoyable.
It is good. That's all I can say.
very good
can you start facilitating before you take training?
I imagine this will get answered in the training itself, but I wonder if there are situations where the facilitator might take a more active role in guiding either the speaker or the listener in the process? That hasn't seemed needed in the three circles I've participated in thus far, but I can imagine the need for that in certain situations, for example where emotions are heightened.
Are there opportunities to facilitate empathy circles that are already organized like those of this introduction?
I'm very happy that I've participated! I want more:)
This was a good training and I really enjoyed it. Thank you for the tools and format to help my students feel heard.

The training helps you improve your active listening skills.
I like witnessing people just being hilarious or at least finding the hilarity in what people are saying.
I enjoyed the training
I'm sorry I am very tired. If I think of any feedback I will follow up and let you know.
It means so much to me that the requirements for this training is so simple and accessible. It was wonderful to see fellow young people just as excited about this impulse as I am. I also love how diverse the group was. I can't wait to engage with new people throughout this training. I can't wait to behold the rich and fruitful interactions that will come from being around people with all sorts of backgrounds and goals.
I am curious about the "felt sense" of empathy, and the possibility of expressing how we have been touched or affected by someone's sharing. So reflecting back what we received with regard to communication, and then reflecting back the impact it may have had on us as the receiving. What arises within our "felt sense" (our body)?
Curious about the scheduling of private groups... seems like the current schedules are booked for several months and I'd like to get started soon. I'm wondering how we can train more perhaps concurrently to bring the reality of CoE to more places (homes and communities) around the world sooner?
I will write to Edwin about how to do something like this in Denmark in Danish.
I would like to know more about the training process! Maybe a Q&A at the end would be good?

Hmm, I would do some work on the intro piece. Just get it nicely ordered and really exciting: I might lose some of the showing around the website part - I felt a little disengaged at that moment. I might have done a little bit of a round before the practice about the practice i.e. what are you excited about / anxious about /questions do you have. I might have added a participant 'my next step' to the end. So the question being 'what is your next practical step to take forward this experience today... ' Mine is to post in a big facebook group in Berlin and ask if people want to join me for an empathy circle ;-)
I enjoyed it, it felt very safe.
Nothing at this time,still kind of processing it all.

It's a continuous learning experience and I'm so grateful that Edwin, Bill and Lou have the wisdom to sail the boat through sometimes stormy seas. I'm reading We the Drowned at the moment so forgive the nautical references:)
thanks, really great Learning
Thank you for creating this experience for so many people. I'm inviting others to create an empathy circle today.
After completing the EC training, may i start an empathy café...

I think that it was difficult at first to be an active listener, but as the conversation continued it became easier.

It wasn't quite clear how long we should expect the breakout rooms to last.
Awsome
I need to research the face book page that has the info. But I do find info online harder to absorb.
It was very valuable to me
Not so much a question just to express a little confusion about the next steps. All the dates & times on Facebook are a little daunting/confusing. I guess I would ask can we just get on with doing some circles before doing the training? Sounds like we have to wait some time to get onto a training?
N/A
I love to hear information on you work with schools particularly with youth and teachers
It was great. Thank you for the amazing work and for putting this out into the world.
It was a shame one of our group couldn't stay for long. But it did work well with only 3.
When will the next cohort likely happen and when is an appropriate time for me to sign up?
What will be the format of the 2.5 hour sessions?

When is our next meeting? Or I forgot if there is another one this Saturday?
Really impressed with the people and the energy. I would like to see more about results and effects. As a result of attending empathy circles, this group of people did...
What do I do now?? I am not on fb but will check out the website
Looking forward to more of it
I think it can be very beneficial especially as in most contexts a simple formalised structure is not used to enable deeper empathic communication. Power issues usually come into play. I like that everyone comes into the meeting and participates in the meeting with equal roles.

I prefer 5 min allowance for speaker/Active Listener. That extra minute seems to allot a better timeline thereby making it easier to unpack my thoughts as the speaker.
the difference between empathy circle and listening circle
I feel it is an excellent opportunity for improving communication skills.

I'm curious about the upcoming Monday cohort that is open to all, but is specifically designed for Extinction Rebellion. I don't know that organization, but Mondays work much better for me than Saturdays, so I'm curious how well I'd fit with the Extinction Rebellion cohort even thugh I'm not affiliated with that group.
I love this and I feel blessed for having this opportunity.
How did you arrive at this wonderful idea?
I think being on camera is an important component.
It highlight the need for me to increase my development with regards to be reflecting rather than interpreting whilst listening

Listening seems to be the key skill to empathy, the exercise made that very clear.
