We Need Each Other

by Francesca James

The outer world is continuously vying for your attention, luring you under its control. It can cause you to lose sight of your value, your importance, and your purpose. At times you need others to remember and remind you. These reminders often come from the most unexpected places. To recognize them requires your open heart and mind. Connection, feeling seen and understood, loved, and needed are imperative in order to experience wholeness.
Through this podcast, it is my pleasure to facilitate unconditional love for one, perhaps misunderstood, human being to another. Beginning with love for the self you can then become a wellspring for the world. The world needs you.

EMPATHY IS MY SUPERPOWER

50m · Published 07 Sep 19:28

Joy Assent’s story is compelling.

She was raised by parents who were addicted to crack cocaine. At a young age, she was robbed at gunpoint and later fell victim to a severe head injury. Yet, she thrives; she loves; she sees through the eyes of the other. Joy has lived and continues to live through her open heart bringing the gift of empathy. That open-hearted empathy is her superpower.

Six years in the army which moved her into a different way of living and now a member of an HR team, Joy refers to herself as a “Purveyor of Positive People.” She can only be that because she is beyond positive. She lives from her heart space. We have much to learn from Joy Assent.
