The fact that you did all in English suggests that you don't do it with your meetspace friends. Ask your meetspace friends.
If you want to be a coach or therapists you need to be in a position to gather clients. Empathy alone is not enough. You also need to do outreach to find clients.
I mostly agree with this.
Right now I live in a small town, and my meatspace friends don't need the particular kind of support I can offer. Outreach/community is one of the reasons, maybe the primary reason I'm considering to do studies (academic, certification or something similar).
Still, the internet seems like a viable way to connect with people.
(NVC is a communication method; the specific methods used are empathic listening and reflection).
Increased clarity and self-understanding
Inspiration and clarity when it comes to specific goals and actions
Increased awareness of own values
I am a Swedish citizen, which gives me free passage and right of residence within the European Union. I speak good English (and all the empathy work I've done has been in English). I am potentially open to relocating - Sweden has less than 10 million residents so I figure I might need to at some point (though I'd rather stick to English-speaking countries. I have a slight preference for warmer climates).
