Mad & Lucy Mind the Gap: Empathy with Erin Thorp

Is empathy the real power skill in leadership?

In our latest episode of Mad & Lucy: Mind the Gap, we sit down with the incredible Erin Thorp—author of Inside Out Empathy and host of the Tactical Empathy podcast—to talk about how empathy is more than just a soft skill. It’s a leadership muscle.

We unpack what it really means to lead with empathy (without losing yourself), why Gen Z may actually be ahead of the curve when it comes to emotional intelligence, and how to stay grounded when pushing for change in a world that doesn’t always want it.

You’ll walk away with tangible ways to flex your empathy muscle—starting with one simple question you can ask today.
