For episode 32 we are joined by the wonderful Empathy Designer, Artist and Strategist, Enni-Kukka Tuomala. Enni is one of those people who shines brightly and you are immediately drawn to as soon as they walk in the room: kind smile, super smart, emanating positivity. Enni discusses what it is to sculpt a purpose from really listening to your gut and trusting your instinct. She focused on what shape that would take, carving into a functional role. Through combining all she has learnt; from her undergraduate degree in Classical Archaeology & Ancient History to working within advertising for five years, to completing a Masters in Global Innovation Design, as well as, being on the board for the London International Festival of Theatre (LIFT) - she arrived at Empathy Designer & Artist. She creates; tools, games, installations, experiences and environments that focus on creating empathy as the outcome, in addition to working with empathy. Enni connects people, communities and politicians aiming to transform empathy from an individual feeling to collective power. Bring it on! Enni’s role IS ESSENTIAL.  She shares her creative journey, how she kept an ‘Empathy Journal’ (yikes!!) and discusses her current project ‘Campaign For Empathy’ - aiming to bridge the growing distance between communities during Brexit uncertainty in the London Borough of Newham.
