    What an amazing presentation on empathy and compassion. This set of research is exactly what teachers like myself with SEN in schools need to support their professions. Even thinking about the meaning of the word ‘professional’ in a competitive context, brought up many questions for my career and self reflection on where I want to go next with my practice. Immensely Inspiring for me seeing women leading empirical and evidence based scientific research to drive changes for the medical profession, which is what not just I, but society in general are in so much need of right now. Thankyou

    A compelling presentation sharing your and other researcher/educators’ capacity to evolve observations, inquiry, exploration, and applicability to helpers and those they seek to proffer skillful empathy. I’m also quite grateful a clinical social worker that 1) still doesn’t much like the profession’s name (sticky language) and 2) has experienced the poisons of bitter irony, cynicism and lack of efficacy. Feeling more grounded, now.
