Why are you interested in being an Empathy Circle facilitator?
Edwin
Desire to Spread the Practice.
I see the the effectiveness and power of the Empathy Circle and feel it is a basic skill and practice that needs to be spread widely. So I want to be able to do a good job of holding an Empathy Circle. Taking part in a training I hope will deepen my skills and insights. I also want to be able to teach people to be facilitators as a way to spread the practice.
Desire to Grown and Learn
I also enjoy the learning, growing and going deeper into how to do the Empathy Circle more effectively.
Lewis:
I love being a Facilitator because
(contribution) I get to experience myself and others all benefit from seeing & hearing & understanding & feeling the diversity of human bodies & minds & spirits in just two hours.
(Deepen Empathy Skills) I love speaking because I get to feel heard accurately and I love listening and reflecting back because I get to learn how to hear and reflect back more accurately. :-)
Ingrid
I am interested in being an Empathy Circle facilitator because
it opens my eyes to what others are experiencing,
(Deepen Empathy Skills) to improve my own empathic skills,
(Community Building) and to build relationships in the community where I live and elsewhere.

(Grow and learn Empathy) The simple answer is because I want to facilitate ECs and I want to do it well. More than theory and reading materials, I want to practice empathy. I practice every day in my own life, but practicing here, in a structured environment, with feedback, with learning goals to reach, helps me to go deeper and helps to track progress. I enjoy being part of the community too.

(Enjoyment) I really enjoy facilitation just as a service and function. So taking that to a different environment such as empathy is challenging and rewarding both..
