@oscarmikespeaks: Empathy Fades With Power Evy Poumpouras reveals a surprising truth about mindset: the more challenges you overcome, the less empathy you often feel. You’d think hardship makes you more compassionate, but it can create the opposite effect. Why? Because once you’ve pushed through difficulties, you start expecting others to “get it together” too. As you rise in life or career, your responsibilities grow heavier. Leaders juggle countless pressures, which leaves little mental space to absorb everyone else’s struggles. It’s not always coldness—it’s survival. Meanwhile, those with fewer burdens may naturally show more patience and empathy. This perspective shifts how we see others. Instead of labeling a boss, mentor, or leader as uncaring, we can recognize the weight they carry. 👉 The lesson: Don’t assume lack of empathy equals lack of care. Ask yourself, how can you balance resilience with compassion? #mindset #mindsetmatters #mindsetiseverything #motivationmindset

I disagree with her wholeheartedly because I'm going through some things that's why my empathy is even greater along with my compassion

I disagree and agree. I understand more, I love more, and I expect better for the people I love. But yea I dont feel sorry for them anymore more. Now when it comes to people in countries where they have no choice. Yes they have my sympathies.

I disagree. You can rise in the ranks and still be kind and have empathy towards others. Empathy doesn’t make you soft. It makes you unstoppable.

I completely disagree the more you understand from a broader perspective, the more empathy you feel. As consciousness expands, the heart opens and begins to see others’ experiences without judgment through the eyes of love and understanding. But understanding and acceptance are not the same; you can feel empathy and understand a situation without necessarily agreeing with or accepting it..✨🫂❤️

I think it might lower your threshold for what you consider needs your empathy but not actually removes your ability to feel it

this is where childhood is fundamental to leadership empathy capacity. if you are taught correctly and develop a highly and deeply empathetic state while also learning the mental and cognitive abilities needed to be a leader...you will be transcendent.

Strongly disagree just because someone’s went through less hard times doesn’t mean you can’t feel empathy for them.

This is completely counterintuitive to what I've seen the people I look up to and those in positions of authority who I respect are like.

Y’all gonna hate me but I agree with her. I only have sympathy for people at work. But outside of work, when I’m around people I care, I’m quite empathetic. Anyone outside of that, it’s just sympathy.
