Being an empathetic friend, partner, and leader is hopefully something we all strive for. But maybe empathy isn’t something you’ve thought about much… Maybe you’re not quite sure what it even means.
In this episode we’ll share our own personal experiences with empathy, and why we feel that striving to be an empathetic person can make such a huge difference in your life - and in others lives.

What is Nicole & Kate Can Relate?
We're Nicole & Kate! Friends, confidants, accountability partners, and we’ve been supporting each other over the years sharing our ups and our downs and hashing out the big questions of life - do we want kids? Can we have it all? How do we stay healthy and keep our businesses running smoothly without major stress and overwhelm? We talk things out ‘cause that’s what real friends do - they provide love, support, and space for one another to share without judgement, speak without hesitation, and learn from each other - even when we don’t agree.
