Description

Welcome to "Conversations in Compassion". This is not an interview, but an attempt to demonstrate conversations that are rooted in compassion and empathy. We will focus in on some of the most important issues of our time. Each conversation will be fresh and will focus on the individual and how to bring their story to life. My hope is that through these conversations, we can help resolve the discord in our families, in ourselves, and in our communities; and focus on the most important need of our time, the need for compassion.

Compassion is key

It is so relieving to hear compassionate conversations. Even if I have little in common with the guest, the empathy Stephen provides is so refreshing...
