Hi Becca,

Thanks for sharing this! I’m really happy that you found value in our work, and I can completely relate to your situation. I’ve been raised in a similar way, and am not the most naturally sympathetic person myself! I follow Ashley’s tips myself too. 🙂

All the best,

Hugo

I do empathise internally, but I’m rubbish at expressing it in a meaningful way. I joked with my hugely sympathetic husband to teach me his ways and as I said it, I realised, actually, nobody ever had taught me! My parents are exactly the same as me; not unkind, but very much “never mind, suck it up and get on with it” kind of people! So I am making it my mission to learn how to be a more outwardly sympathetic person and that’s how I wound up here! Thank you for a great article.
