Beyond the Serenity Prayer - Debunking misconceptions and finding a balanced approach to empathy

Explore the balance between the Serenity Prayer's wisdom and the need for self-care in this thoughtful episode. It's not about using the Serenity Prayer to become dismissive or disinterested in things we cannot do anything about. Nor is it about taking on the pain of others, when trying to be there for them. And yet there is power in the witnessing. How do we do this?

This episode offers a nuanced discussion around the power of the witness for emotional support. It's essential to be able to be present with others' pain without being consumed by it.

Serenity Prayer

"God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference."
