Base Camp | Sit Beside Me: A Meditation on Empathy and Deep Listening

Discover how the simple act of listening can transform your relationships and deepen your capacity for empathy. In this powerful meditation, Milo guides us through the delicate practice of being truly present with others – without the urge to fix, react, or judge.

Learn to sit comfortably with discomfort and develop a genuine curiosity for both your own emotions and those of others. Through gentle guidance, you'll explore how authentic listening creates a sacred space for connection and understanding.

This episode offers practical wisdom on:

• Embracing empathy through presence
• Moving beyond the fix-it mindset
• Cultivating non-judgmental awareness
• Creating space for authentic connection

This season, the podcast is opening into something new: it’s no longer just my voice, but yours too. Each week, I’ll share a theme, and you’ll have the chance to record your own reflection or question. Some of those will be woven into future episodes. You can add your voice here.
