The Price of Empathy | Elizabeth Jean Thomas on Building Phonologix

Deep Impact Story | Episode 11 Elizabeth Jean Thomas is building Phonologix Speech therapy services for children with communication challenges. She gives voice to those who have none. But there's a price. Parents tell her: "I'm a special parent. How can you charge so much? You have to be empathetic." An investor at a pitch competition said: "I won't invest in such a company because you're making money out of people's misfortune." She couldn't reply. What she wanted to say: "Do you tell your doctor they're profiting from your pain?" This is why speech pathologists leave India. It's not lucrative. They go abroad. 25 million children need help. Only 10,000 professionals in India. Elizabeth is trying to solve this. Online therapy. Accessible. Affordable. But the judgment follows her. The quiet mental toll of being told you shouldn't earn while helping. She was always an introvert. She says "I will never go on stage. I will faint." The same person is working silently behind the scenes, empowering others to find their voice. What is the price of empathy when everyone expects it for free? #SpeechTherapy #SocialImpact #Phonologix #Empathy #deepimpactstory ABOUT DEEP IMPACT STORY A weekly podcast for founders figuring out how to build sustainably.
