Why you want to be an empathy circle facilitator?

Edwin Why: From 14 years of working on, studying and building empathy I have found the the empathy circle to be the best first step and gateway process for building empathy skills and way of being. I feel that if we can spread this practice widely, that is train every person in the world to be able to take part in an Empathy Circle and facilitate one, that it will create great well being in the world. So this is my way of contributing to the wellbeing of the world.
