On Episode 24 of You, Me, Empathy, Jason Michael and I explore how in getting older, and in Jason's case, in being a parent of kids, impacts our mental health. Jason opens up about being the bullied, lonely only English-speaking kid in a primary French speaking part of Canada, and how that has informed who he is today.

You, Me, Empathy

On You, Me, Empathy, we explore the struggles, the triumphs, the brights and the darks we face as humans trying to be human on this wondrous and overwhelming pale blue dot.

You, Me, Empathy was created so that we can be witness to our collective humanity through the lens of empathy, vulnerability, and emotional curiosity. We aim to destigmatize mental health, lead fiercely with our hearts, feel our feelings without shame and judgment, and share our courageous stories so that others may feel less alone and more connected as feely humans.

You, Me, Empathy is a brave place designed to inspire the beauty in each of us, because each of us, in all of our kaleidoscopic parts, makes up a magical whole that deserves to be seen.

Created and hosted by Nōn Wels (he/him), writer, doggo lover, and co-creator of The Feely Cards.
