ON ARRIVAL QUESTION:
What do you appreciate about yourself and why do you appreciate it?
I’m not able to answer this question! How strange.
What is your metaphor of empathy and why is it like that?
I got into trouble for this one once (and maybe I will again) - Empathy is like good sex. It’s a naturally flowing, passionate, energizing, spontaneously amplifying attraction between yourself and the other in a way that just works and keeps working until a climax of energy is reached. When done well, empathy gives you that same craving to know more, to touch the inner soul of someone, which in most cultures is only attributed to sexual liberation with that person.
How do you think reflective listening compares to our everyday conversation?
Reflective listening for me is my entering the place where I focus on letting go of all the other things I hold onto in my mind so that I can really focus in on what the person is saying. Focus is the difference for me, in exactly what is said, and making sure I don’t make of it what I want.

How will we deal with "incomplete" 5 minute exchanges?
I really wanted to continue connecting with you, as I know I didn't get it "right enough" for my taste.
that is a issue with the time limit. Not feeling complete. How might we address that? We have the 2 hour time constraint.. We need a circle for 3 days or so and see it we would then be fully heard.
Deep Dive Topic Specific Empathy Circles.
Can we do a empathy circle between us on "getting this stuff popular or viral"? Have you ever had an empathy circle online for something you really wanted to be heard about?
Yes, we can have specific topic of ‘getting this stuff popular or viral"
Would be a good topic. I’m also interested in the topic of ‘what is a culture of empathy ‘
I’d also like specific empathy circles like on fear. What fears and anxieties are we dealing with.
These are all good points that we can document and build on.
