Empowerment
What is Empowerment?
The felt sense that you have the capacity to influence your own circumstances. Empowerment turns a passive observer into an active participant in the story of their own life.
When you might feel empowerment
Empowerment is a specific form of agency, which itself is a type of autonomy. You might experience this feeling in situations where autonomy is present, particularly when the circumstances align with the nuances that define empowerment.
