#110: What if I Can't Express Compassion?
Episode 110
Thursday, 27 August, 2026
In this installment of the Equipped for Life Podcast, Emily Geiger and Dr. Rebecca Carlson dive deeper into what it means to express compassion in conversation, particularly when discussing difficult topics like abortion, rape, and poverty. Note: Although this episode does not describe rape or sexual abuse in detail, it does make reference to survivors and resources related to addressing sexual abuse. Editor's Note: There was a bit of an audio glitch in Rebecca's audio during recording that we unfortunately didn't catch until post-production. Please bear with us over these next few episodes until our correction of the error catches up with our publishing schedule.
