Not Too Sensitive - Empowering Highly Sensitive People (HSPs) To Own Their Sensitivity

Happy Valentines Day! I thought it was the perfect time to re-share this Sensitive & Soulful Podcast episode from October 2021 talking all about relationships as an HSP. ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ HSPs make up only about 15-20% of the population which means most people you meet and have relationships with are not HSPs. This is why it's so important to learn about your trait and understand the HSP characteristic...

I was feeling a little dramatic the other day when I canceled my HSP Business Mastermind Zoom call and IG Live because I was overwhelmed and not feeling my best. I made the decision to cancel these things because I needed to give myself space to breath and reset. And something very interesting happened when I did this that I was so proud of (listen to find out)! In this episode, you'll learn: Why...

After a short break, Matt and I are back for the Sensitive & Empowered Series . In this episode, Matt and I explore the concept of Dharma and how this concept connects us to our soul path and purpose in this life. We talk about our own struggles trying to understand our Dharma throughout life and how we came into connection with the path we both choose to walk. We also explore how we both feel...

I will always, always, always believe that HSPs make the best business owners. Between our empathy, our need for flexibility, and our life experiences, we can truly be great leaders and find so much purpose in running our own businesses. I know for me, becoming a business owner just kind of happened but I’m so grateful it did and I wouldn’t change anything. In this episode, you’ll learn: Why I thi...

I had another episode planned for today but felt I needed to be super real with you all. I've been experiencing a lot of transitions in my life (corporate to full-time business owner, becoming a mother) and it has been A LOT, to say the least. I wanted to share what's been going on behind the scenes with me and my business. I've started following my passions and some people don't like it and that...

Look, when it comes to overachieving and pushing boundaries, I was the queen of it. BUT it lead to major burnout, exhaustion, and chronic illness. I don't recommend this path. We, as Highly Sensitive People, have to take better care of ourselves in order to thrive. We have to set healthy boundaries and stick to them. In this episode, you'll learn: About how my first corporate job drove me to burno...

I remember struggling as a kid to feel like I belonged. I always felt that the other girls were prettier, smarter, and more fun. And then there I was, tall and awkward and never saying the right things. Sadly, this carried with me into adulthood and I've had to consciously do the deep inner work to heal these past wounds. You're not alone in feeling like you're not enough but I'm here to tell you...

Whatever trials or hardships you're currently going through, and even though it feels like it will never end...you will get through it.  I'm sending love and grace to anyone in a tough season and I hope you'll give yourself the same love and grace.

I've had enough of over consumption - whether it's social media, the news, podcasts, or just other people. We all have our own thoughts and opinions but when we only consume and never create, we tend to tone down our own messages to fit the collective.  So, no more agreeing with everyone for the sake of agreeing with everyone. It's time to take back our power and understand how important it i...

Your dreams are worth it. Your passions are worth it. Start committing and devoting your attention to yourself and your business and watch how it starts to grow and blossom. It won't happen over night but it will be worth it.  In this episode, you'll learn: About how devotion to my blog got me where I am today Why showing up for your passions is an act of self-care About how following through...

Join Matt and I on this episode of the Sensitive & Empowered Series (a monthly Instagram chat)! This month we talked about loneliness. We've both been experiencing bouts of loneliness in our lives right now and we wanted to share openly and vulnerably about the cause and how we're dealing with it. Being an HSP can be such a gift but it can also be challenging to navigate as well. Social isolat...

Motherhood is no joke! This is a huge transition in my life that has really been bringing up a lot of "stuff" I thought I had moved through. I felt very grounded and solid in my self-worth and then I had a baby and everything changed.  If you're a new mom or have been one for a while and feel like you've been hard on yourself or holding onto shame, this episode is for you. In this episode, yo...

Hey, you. News flash, you don't have to do all the things. I'm here to give you permission to drop the "shoulds" in your life.  "I should be working on my business." "I should be journaling more." "I should be eating healthier." And while yes, these things are good for you and your mental well being, sometimes the guilt that comes with the "shoulds" is worse than just not doing the thing!&nbs...

We've all gotten little hits of inspiration at random times or in random places. Most people tend to ignore those hits. But as HSPs we can only ignore it for so long before our hearts start to yell at us. Our intuition is naturally strong but if we've been ignoring it for too long or listening to other peoples' opinions over our own, it's probably gotten lost somewhere deep inside of us.  Thi...

Join Matt and I on this episode of the Sensitive & Empowered series (a monthly Instagram chat)! We talk about learning how to invite more simplicity into our lives by being aware of our relationship with perfectionism and urgency.  We are both at a stage in our lives where we are learning balance, and we want to share all the wisdom we've accrued over the last couple years when it comes t...

If I could bottle up the energy I had while recording this episode, I totally would! I’m so beyond passionate about helping other HSPs find their passions! (I know, so cheesy!) But in all seriousness, you are worth it. You are worth investing in yourself and in your business. If there’s been something whispering to you, nudging you to start something or do something, you should tune in. In this ep...

As a new mom, I need all the help I can get and sometimes sitting down for a lengthy meditation just won’t cut it. Being a new mom (or going through anything new) can bring up lots of things we thought we had already worked through and we need a way to work through this stress and anxiety in a healthy way. In this episode, you’ll learn:      · Why support is so important &...

I recently made a MAJOR business decision. I knew I had to make a change because I was feeling super out of alignment...and that is no way to live or run a business.  Deep down I know that if it's not serving me, then it's not serving my amazing clients. So in this episode, you'll learn: About my major business decision How to notice when you're out of alignment Why it's okay to "let yourself...

Let's be real, life would be a lot easier sometimes if we weren't Highly Sensitive. But as much as being an HSP can sometimes feel like a curse, it's just as much a blessing, if not more so.  You were created this way on purpose and you're not alone.  In this episode, you'll learn: About my experience as a kid and feeling misunderstood Why HSPs feel different than others About accepting...

Is it just me, or does life feel really overwhelming right now? Running a business, being a new mom, and just getting through life in general can feel like…a lot. So I knew I had to share this audio training from the very first month of The Highly Sensitive and Soulful Membership . It's a reminder to slow down, reconnect, and to ground back into yourself. In this episode, you’ll learn: Why HSPs te...

As HSPs and empaths, we tend to rely heavily on our feelings and gut reactions – and we should! We should always trust our intuition. But what if that feeling is a feeling of discomfort? Do we take it as a sign to stop what we’re doing and turn back? I know the discomfort of other people’s judgements and opinions and I know it’s not a good feeling. It can often times feel like a sign that we shoul...

Anxiety often happens when we feel that we don't have any control over situations in our lives. It can be unnerving and overwhelming. But with all things, we can learn to manage our anxiety and get better at self regulating during stressful times. As a new mom there are so many things that are out of my control and I've had to learn how to release and let go and it's made all the difference. In th...
