Communicating with Empathy

This course is for you if…

• You work with young people as a youth worker, educator, trainer, facilitator, or in a related support role, and you feel the emotional intensity, responsibility, and pace of the work.
• You are involved in youth work, non-formal learning, community work, education, or social fields, and want to stay present and supportive without feeling overwhelmed or burnt out.
• You work with vulnerable young people or groups and are looking for ways to communicate with more clarity, empathy, and care — while also respecting your own limits.
• You often hold space for others and would value a learning space where you are also listened to, supported, and acknowledged.
• You want to strengthen your ability to regulate emotions, set boundaries, and respond thoughtfully in challenging or emotionally charged situations.
• You are curious about Nonviolent Communication and are looking for a practical, embodied approach that can be integrated into everyday youth work and learning contexts.

By joining this course, you will…

• Take part in a guided, practice-based learning journey focused on self-empathy, emotional awareness, and compassionate communication.
• Explore practical NVC-inspired tools through journaling, reflection, dialogue, and experiential exercises that you can use immediately in your work with young people.
• Create space to notice thoughts and feelings that often remain unaddressed due to fast-paced schedules and high emotional demands in youth work.
• Strengthen your capacity to listen deeply, express needs and boundaries clearly, and stay connected in moments of tension or uncertainty.
• Connect with other youth workers, educators, and practitioners, allowing space for peer learning, exchange, and meaningful professional connection.
• Deepen your relationship with yourself, supporting both care and responsibility, so you can show up more grounded, authentic, and sustainable in the spaces you hold.
• Integrate empathic communication practices into non-formal learning settings, supporting young people to feel seen, heard, and respected — while also protecting your own well-being.
