Welcome to Episode 11 of Tide Talk, the official short-form podcast from Ride The Wave Foundation, hosted by Jeff Fisher and Javon Blue.
This week’s principle is one of the most essential in human connection, leadership, and mentorship:
Empathy and Understanding
In this 15-minute episode, Jeff and Javon explore what it really means to show empathy — not just feel sympathy or offer advice, but to be fully present with another person’s pain or process.
Whether you're mentoring someone, leading a team, supporting a loved one, or engaging a stranger, empathy is the gateway to emotional safety and real trust.
🎧 In this episode, you'll learn:
• Why empathy matters more than quick solutions
• The difference between sympathy and deep understanding
• How to show up with presence — not performance
• Real-life mentorship and faith-based reflections from the field
• Tools to help you stay present, calm, and heart-centered in conversation
Empathy is not a soft skill. It's a sacred one. And it has the power to transform every room you walk into.
