How to Develop Empathy and Allyship with Emilie Goodall

Be & Think in the House of Trust

In this episode of Be & Think in the House of Trust, I am listening to Emilie Goodall, a seasoned leader with nearly 20 years of experience advocating for and initiating positive impact through finance, working to help organisations understand and improve their impact on people and the planet.

After a dialogue with other social finance professionals about individuals’ experience of racism, Emilie started to notice a very human desire from people who have not experienced racism directly to empathize with others who have and bring in their own experiences, perhaps around other forms of discrimination.

But something didn't sound right.

In this episode, you might notice I repeat the same question several times, as I give Emilie the time and space to think and reflect deeply on her answers. Throughout our discussion, we touch on themes such as deep listening, presencing and the benefits of being more conscious in our thoughts and actions.
