Empaths are sensitive, caring and compassionate people — they can feel other people’s emotions and absorb their energy. Because of this, they have to actively shield themselves from negative or overwhelming situations so they won’t get overwhelmed or drained out. In an interview with UpJourney, Kimberly Lackey shares her insights on how to deal with being an empath and what you can do to help yourself.
Kimberly Lackey was interviewed by VoyageTampa for its Change-Makers series, which aims to find the amazing souls that breathe life into the surrounding communities and tell their stories in their own words. Kim shared her journey of overcoming cancer and other ailments, how she launched Empath Coaching, became Chief Success Officer at NES Health, and her thoughts on risk taking.

“Having cancer changes your life, obviously,” she says. “A great deal of good things came of it, like my decision to pursue a career dedicated to helping others get healthy. But to live through treatment and potential recurrence, you need to be tough, and surround yourself with good people. You have to stand in your power and know you can deal with a disease like this.”
For those who have just been diagnosed or have a loved one living with this cancer, Kimberly provides some key points to keep in mind, including:
You may feel like your life just stopped. It’s okay to feel like that’s not fair. Because it’s not.
The longer you go without recurrence, the more your risk drops.
The hardest moment may be right after treatment.
You may need to think about fertility.
Getting back to a routine can help.

When you have a youth athlete, providing him or her with proper nutrition is of the utmost importance. But with so many diet trends and food fads, it can sometimes be hard to separate marketing tactics from reality.
And since every athlete has different needs, how can you know which foods are best for your family?
Many parents ask this same question. That’s why Youth1 rounded up 15 tips from dietitians and trainers to share some of the best advice in youth nutrition today.
Get Ahead of Their Metabolisms
Metabolisms are unique and vary across individuals. Kimberly Lackey at Empath Coaching suggests tracking your athlete’s metabolism to determine the best times for a meal or snack.
“Listen to reports from teachers, coaches, tutors and after-school staff to see if there is consistency in performance at certain times, or potential behavior issues that repeat at the same time each day,” Lackey says. “Healthy snacking during those times, and the right breakfast, could be just the cure you and your child are looking for.”
Today's families look quite a bit different than they did in the past. The way we interact with our children is different. Parenting is WAY different. The "unconventional" of the past is now becoming a standard. From divorce to blended families, sexual expression in our youth, and dealing with technology, there are so many considerations we must make as parents, which our parents didn't have to.
