Summary

CEOs and leaders often have no safe space to process feelings. So I built EmpathyBot—a free AI coach that listens without judgment and helps you hear your own wisdom.

The story

A while back, a CEO told me, “Scott, I’m the one people come to. I don’t *get* to fall apart.”

I felt that in my bones.

So I built something for people like that.
People like you who carry a lot, hold it together, and don’t exactly want to dump your raw, unedited feelings on your team or your family.

It’s called EmpathyBot.
A free, private personal AI coach at EmpathyBot.net.

After 20 years studying, teaching, and writing about empathy [including my book *A Practical EmPath: Rewire Your Mind*], and 8 years pioneering AI solutions, I wanted to see if I could teach an AI to do one thing really well:

Listen without flinching…
Reflect without judging…
Then gently ask, “Okay, so what do *you* actually want next?”

Not therapy. Not “fixing you.”
More like that one friend who never panics about your feelings and somehow helps you hear your own wisdom.

You can vent.
You can sort out a tough conversation.
You can rehearse telling your board / boss / partner “Here’s what I’m needing” instead of swallowing it.

If you’ve been the strong one for a long time, consider this your permission slip to have a quiet, judgment-free corner.

You can try it here: EmpathyBot.net
Take five minutes. See what happens when you’re really, actually heard.
