Author Event with Michael Tennant, author of The Power of Empathy

  • Book + Bottle 17 6th Street North St. Petersburg, FL, 33701 United States (map)

January is always a month that helps us reset and realign our goals. With this in mind, we're hosting an author talk with Michael Tennant to discuss his book The Power of Empathy: A Thirty-Day Path to Personal Growth and Social Change. Michael's work asks you to heal yourself so that you can heal the world. This Q&A will give you a look into his vision and give you the tools to make 2024 your best year yet!

Your ticket includes a copy of The Power of Empathy by Michael Tennant. Food and drink available for purchase at the bar. 

More about the book:

With this thirty-day approach, you can develop your empathy skills as tools for self-love and empowerment. Empathy expert and entrepreneur Michael Tennant weaves together scholarly research with his personal journey of loss, substance use, anxiety, and depression to explore how empathy can benefit both our inner lives and our larger community.

Filled with heartfelt personal stories, techniques for mindfulness, and engaging journaling prompts, this book grounds the abstract concept of empathy with an actionable and intersectional framework. Learn to compassionately support, courageously confront, gracefully model, effectively resolve, and masterfully connect—all through the power of empathy!

Michael Tennant is the Founder, and CEO of Curiosity Lab, a purpose driven venture studio and consultancy that builds products and experiences that teach empathy, creator of the empathy card came, Actually Curious, and author of The Power Empathy, published in October 2023 by Chronicle Books. In his role as CEO, Michael creates and incubates businesses to help values-aligned individuals and organizations use empathy to live happier and healthier lives, and to nurture productive and inclusive environments. In 2022, Curiosity Lab received an investment from Pharrell and the Black Ambition Prize.
