You, Me, Empathy is the official podcast of The Feely Human Collective. Join the community at FeelyHuman.co/membership.
On this show, we explore the struggles, the triumphs, the brights and the darks we face as humans trying to be human on this wondrous and overwhelming pale blue dot.
You, Me, Empathy was created so that we can be witness to our collective humanity through the lens of empathy, vulnerability, and emotional curiosity. We aim to destigmatize mental health, lead fiercely with our hearts, feel our feelings without shame and judgment, and share our courageous stories so that others may feel less alone and more connected as feely humans.
You, Me, Empathy is a brave place designed to inspire the beauty in each of us, because each of us, in all of our kaleidoscopic parts, makes up a magical whole that deserves to be seen.
Created and hosted by Nōn Wels (he/him), feely human, writer, and doggo lover.

Customer Reviews
Like coming home.
An update from a year of listening: I have grown to fully adore Nōn and this lovely podcast. I'm truly grateful for the authenticity and vulnerability that is shared on this show.
From last year: I’m new to this podcast, so I’ve only listened to a few episodes, but so far, it’s a bit like free therapy, as so many parts of my own experience are shared between the host and his guests, who are all excellent resources on mental health. It feels like a space where you can be seen, just by listening. Looking forward to more and very grateful that this exists.
The Healing Power of Empathy
Non Wels and his show has opened up so many new fields and perspectives in emotional healing for me. He has interesting guests that have so many great insights to share. I came to this show during a time of emotional upheaval and the show has been like a well of water for a thirsty soul. Thank you, Non, for this wonderful podcast!
Very educational
My favorite podcast. Non Wels is a great host and leads discussions that are very interesting and educational. These podcasts definitely open people up to how complex everyone is while also allowing us to understand how similar we are all as well.
