Welcome to The Empathy Empowered

Community of Practice

For leaders, coaches, empaths and anyone on a growth journey of Connecting Compassionately, Communicating Effectively, and Building Resilient Relationships.

Boost Your Relational Intelligence

The Empathy Empowered Community is for You

You are a creative leader who struggles with conflict, feedback, authority, and some relationships.

You want to be able to disagree gracefully – expressing your truth while preserving the relationship.

You want to listen actively, have empathy and be clear about when you are agreeing or not.

You want to communicate effectively, authentically & in a way that others truly consider it.

You are a coach who wants to go deeper in your work with clients, and knows skillful empathy is the way.

You want to apply your empathy to quickly uncover & untangle the root causes of your clients’ issues.

And then support them to excavate their most genuine wisdom, get unstuck creatively, and build self-confidence along with self-compassion.

And you want this for yourself too.

You are an empath who can get overwhelmed by big feelings (yours and others).

You have a lot of compassion. And can easily slip into intense caretaking & burn out. You end up with no energy for yourself, other people you love, or to enjoy life. 

You want to be able to process your feelings with skill and agility. And learn how to set healthy boundaries to balance your care for others with care for yourself. You can’t wait to reclaim your energy & vitality.

Empathy is the ultimate relational & emotional intelligence skill. It will empower you to change, and sustain your growth.

Come get the guidance you need to develop your most authentic Empathy. And a community to put it in practice with.

Our purpose is simple yet profound: to become skillful in Empathy and unlock its power to create meaningful & resilient relationships with self & others.

To become skillful is not just about knowing, but also incorporating knowledge into new behaviors. That is why a course can get you started, but cannot offer you the kind of transformation that is sustainable overtime. The best way to develop and achieve consistency in your new, most skillful behaviors is through practice in community.

I offer the wisdom, guidance, structure, continuity and support you need to develop your Empathy. In community, you will get to practice it through Compassionate (Non-Violent) Communication. Your learning is boosted through the experiences of others, and the collective wisdom that is built together.

Each session includes a combination of teaching, journaling, experiential activities, role playing, group discussions and Q & A. You will have the choice to engage in meaningful conversations on: how to create deep connections, navigate conflict and power struggles with creativity and compassion, express authentically, understand fully, establish boundaries and much more.

You will leave each session with the concrete experience that a real compassionate world is possible. And my hope is that you will carry that over & out into your work & life, creating a ripple effect.

Join us and embrace Empathy as the foundational skill for emotional & relational intelligence, and visionary leadership.

I'm

Cecilia Kremer

my journey is rooted in the belief that wise leadership blossoms from healthy & profound connections—with oneself, others and the world. At the heart of my approach lies Empathy—an invaluable skill that unlocks inner potential and fosters resilient relationships. I facilitate Skillful Empathy to transform conflict into synergy, and to create a new, inclusive and compassionate reality for all.

Since 2015 I have been teaching Empathy at institutions like Stanford Continuing Studies, international conferences and corporations like Intel and Globant. Drawing wisdom from extensive trainings in Non-Violent Communication, Emotional & Relational Intelligence, Neuroscience, Human Development and Integral Coaching, I’m dedicated to instilling a culture of empathy and compassion through 1-1 coaching, team building, community formation and event speaking.

I’m committed to empowering leaders, coaches and organizations to thrive through empathy and compassion.

Our meetings cover a range of topics, all viewed through the lens of Empathy. Past topics have included deep listening, speaking truth, making clear requests, setting boundaries, conflict resolution, crafting agreements, emotional processing (anger, fear, etc.), judgement of self or others, relational patterns, gratitude, appreciation, belonging and more. Each session is thoughtfully crafted to foster understanding and growth.
