Our Story

Greetings! Welcome to Empathetic Words. At 6 years old, I lost my sister in a terrible car accident. 1 month later, I lost my father to cancer. I was devastated and fell into a deep depression. It was so deep that I can’t recall one year of my life. I learned at an early age that life is precious. Life is valuable. It took me some time to get out of my depression. As a result, I was able to feel other people’s pain and suffering at a heightened degree. I dedicated my life to uplifting the people I meet, my family and my friends. I was determined to live a thankful and grateful life. I now see the positive even in the darkest situation. Then, 2020 happened. The loss of human life and the great levels of depression troubled me. I had to do something. I realized that my message needed to reach others who were suffering and in pain. There was a greater need for positive and inspiring messages to uplift people’s spirits. Empathetic Words was created to show kindness and compassion through encouraging messages to brighten one’s day. We want people to see positive messages when drinking their coffee, tea or hot cocoa. We still wanted to do more. That’s why part of the proceeds from each sale goes to the National Suicide Prevention LifeLine helping save lives during trying times. Our hope is that our goods will put anyone who purchases our product, in a great mood all day long. Blessings.
