Through this series of short videos, Olivier asks key pointed questions to experts on intimacy, communication, and relationships.
How to give and receive empathy: even with “empaths” and “bricks”!
Some people say they can sense how another person is feeling. They are the “empaths”. And some people do not have access to that and say that’s not even possible. Those are the “bricks”. Usually empaths communicates well with other empaths. And bricks know how to communicate well with bricks. What if the woman is an empath in the couple, and the man is a brick? Or vice versa? If they don’t find a way to understand each other, and how to communicate well with each other, the result is inevitably frustration, disappointment, disconnection, and even contempt. And research shows that contempt is the ultimate intimacy and relationship killer.
So learn now how to give and receive empathy to restore harmony in your relationship, and even possibly save it.
What you're about to learn:
- What to do and say when someone you care about needs your support.
- Why it's so hard for empaths to offer an empathic response.
- What is NOT empathy. Responses that can create disconnection and damage the relationship.

"If you're feeling angry, that's not arguable, that's what you're feeling. If I'm feeling scared, that's not arguable, it's what I'm feeling. So our feelings -if we're in touch with our feelings- are never arguable, and they're also very human."

"Empaths are highly trained to pick up all the signals around them. It's harder for empaths to stay in their own bodies and to be actually attending to what's happening inside. "

"I need to know that you hear me and see me and understand me in my pain with this. In other words, empathy. That you empathize with me before I'm willing to listen to the advice, teaching or any probing question."
