Welcome back to the third episode of "Bias Busters: 15 Minutes with the Morris Perspective." I'm your host, Connie Morris, and today we dive into the heartwarming world of empathy and its powerful role in reducing biases.

We'll explore a thought-provoking quote from Pakistani novelist Moshin Hamid, emphasizing the shared human experience. We'll define empathy and discuss how it helps strengthen relationships, facilitate productive conversations, and foster a deeper understanding of others' emotions and struggles.

Join us for some fun role-playing scenarios to practice empathy in everyday situations, like supporting a stressed colleague or responding kindly to a snappy barista. We'll also share practical tips for cultivating empathy, such as active listening, perspective-taking, open-mindedness, and offering emotional support.

Empathy is a crucial component of emotional intelligence that helps us connect with others and break down biases. Let's practice empathy and cultivate understanding to create a more inclusive world.
