A Slice of Empathy

By: Valerie J Kelly
  • Summary

  • Just a 30-something-year-old gal trying to navigate this roller coaster we call life. On this podcast, we will discuss topics such as marriage & family relationships and mental & physical health. I am not an expert or professional and I am constantly learning new things. I felt like I should quote have it all together, but then I realized that would not be realistic or relatable. A Slice of Empathy is really just that, a slice of life built on empathy. Learning how to live our lives more intentionally without restrictions as we learn how to better support and uplift one another. I think sharing the struggles we go through can help bring us closer together and realize that we’re not alone.
