Ehhh it’s okay – there’s a lot of fluff in here that I don’t think is necessary, such as breaking empaths down into very specific categories: food empath, animal empath, etc. I also feel like, as with most empath books, it doesn’t quite get being an empath correct 
There’s a difference between having empathy and being an empath. The way parts of the book are written seem to conflate the two. You can have empathy while not being an empath, but you can’t be an empath without empathy.
Here’s an example of a passage that blurs the lines between empathy and being an empath.
But empathy is more than just sensing the emotions of others. It is also an invitation to truly listen, to offer a safe space for people to express themselves authentically. When we approach others with an open heart and a willingness to understand, we create a sacred container for their experiences. Through empathy, we forge deep connections, fostering a sense of belonging and unity in a world that often feels fragmented.
Does this all sound familiar? Then, you’re probably also used to the negative counterpart of being an empath. In fact, while this can be a beautiful and enriching gift, it is important to acknowledge that there can also be challenges and negative aspects associated with it.
As empaths, in fact, we have a heightened sensitivity to the emotions of others, which means we can easily become overwhelmed by the emotional energy around us. Absorbing and carrying the emotions of others can lead to difficulties in distinguishing our own feelings and in understanding and addressing our own emotional needs.
Anyway, I haven’t made it very far in the book and I may end up putting it down 
I’m glad you enjoyed it!
