Do you practice empathy in your business?

Cathy Heller hosts the podcast Don’t Keep Your Day Job, which has 8 million downloads and features conversations with creative entrepreneurs like actress Jenna Fischer, blogger Seth Godin, and more. She’s a phenomenal coach and she’s sparking a movement for every soul to add their gift to the world.

Empathy happens when you create an emotional connection in your business, and make your clients feel seen and heard.

But, how can you do that?

Let me tell you about my new favorite restaurant, Parakeet Cafe.

It just opened up in the San Diego area. The owners are fantastic: they’ve made me feel seen and valued. 

They’ve got everything that I love in a restaurant: fresh, healthy food that makes me feel amazing. But best of all, the owners make their customers feel special. 

The owners themselves go through the restaurant, talking to customers - even taking orders! They didn’t just open a restaurant: they created an experience. 

Empathy has helped them to be able to know exactly what their ideal client wants, and they’ve chosen to continue to listen to their customers to hear what they love, and continue to make their experience even better.

This week’s guest on Success Unfiltered, Cathy Heller, moved to L.A. to kick off her music career, and after only a few months, her producer told her NO. Feeling crushed, she looked for other ways to make money from her passion for music, and she quickly found a perfect fit, making music for TV shows. Her career skyrocketed when she practiced empathy, and listened to what her clients wanted, and gave them exactly what they were looking for. Now, she inspires countless people to pursue what they are passionate about!

If you’re ready to be inspired by how empathy can change everything in your business, you won’t want to miss this week’s episode of Success Unfiltered!

Enjoy, and thank you for listening and tuning into Success Unfiltered!
