Rewire Your Brain with Empathy to Better Stand Up For Yourself | Jamie Lee

Описание: In this episode of The Empathy Edge, Maria Ross sits down with executive coach and podcast host Jamie Lee, who helps women and underrepresented leaders rise without compromising their integrity. Together they explore how empathy and neuroplasticity create the foundation for effective self-advocacy — and how changing your internal narratives can build confidence, clarity, and stronger communication.

Jamie shares practical, evidence-based techniques to regulate your nervous system so you can show up grounded and composed in high-stakes conversations. The discussion also covers the six types of intelligence you can tap into to build deeper connections and confidently ask for what you want.

If you’ve struggled to speak up for yourself or want to advocate with more impact and empathy, this episode is for you.

Listen in to learn about:
• Self-advocacy and neuroplasticity through the lens of empathy
• Why compassion as an action helps rewire the brain
• How to access your parasympathetic nervous system and move out of stress response
• Using mirror neurons to strengthen empathy and connection
• Practical tools to build your self-advocacy “muscle”

“The brain adapts. The brain grows. It changes according to the practices that you expose it to. Compassion is the missing link that helps us be able to access those self-advocacy muscles for ourselves.” — Jamie Lee
