We're living through an empathy crisis. The world feels divided, conversations turn to conflict, and loneliness has become its own quiet epidemic. What we are losing-often without noticing-is the simple act of seeing one another with care. Psychotherapist and relationship expert Laura Caruso reveals how this erosion of empathy is shaping our lives, and how we can begin to repair it. Drawing from personal stories, clinical insights, and cultural moments that reveal both fracture and repair, Caruso offers more than a diagnosis of our disconnection. She offers a way forward. What does it mean to create safety in a world that feels unsafe? How do we learn to soften in a culture that demands hardness? And what becomes possible when we choose connection over convenience? Through vivid storytelling and a therapist's eye for the human condition, The Empathy Deficit invites us to imagine a future where empathy is not a weakness, but our greatest strength. It is a call to action and a promise that even in divided times, the smallest gestures of care can ripple outward, bridging a divide that once felt impossible to cross.
