almost every day, i'm sitting with people to listen to their challenges... this is not my professional day-job, but i get a lot of requests from my community
How do you prevent yourself from not being absorbed in their troubles?
reply
I keep their stories to myself & that helps
I try not to pick sides or have an attachment to an outcome.
sometimes it gets on me, though... and I get to practice my humility
