Liz: LEAP: Listen, empathy, affirm and positive perspective Invites:    •    Check out maritalfirstresponders.org and participate in some of the workshops available to you.    •    When giving advice to friends it is important to be a good friend to that person but also their marriage, listen with empathy but don’t rush to give advice. Don’t jump to take a friend’s side without considering the whole picture.    •    Use life experience when giving out advice, you may not be an expert but we all have experiences to take and learn from when helping others.
