74: Stop Apologizing for Your Sensitivity + Start Harnessing Your HSP (Highly Sensitive Person)

ALIVE with Jessica Silverman: Heal Your Inner Child + Ancestral Trauma

Were you told as a child "stop being so sensitive", or felt the need to apologize for your sensitive + soft Nature? In a world that does not revere + respect sensitivity, this can leave those of us who are to experience micro-traumas (or as we talked about in Ep. 71, covert traumas) and feelings of aloneness, anxiety, and frustration in not feeling understood and accepted as you are.
In a beautiful conversation with Alissa Boyer of the Sensitive and Soulful podcast, you will learn how to overcome this shame of being sensitive and learn how to harness your HSP powers which is the joy and divine gift of deeply experiencing life. As Alissa speaks about, being highly sensitive is a missing barrier between you and the rest of the world, but what if that missing barrier allowed you to access portals that create the visionaries and luminaries of life?
For those listening that are not highly sensitive, Alissa also shares guidance for being an ally and how to help those in your life that are highly sensitive feel loved, respected, and accepted for their sensitive nature without being ostracized. By the end of the episode, you will truly be feeling the embodiment of Alissa's teachings which is an "I have my own back" kind of energy to surrender the feeling of being a "canary in a coalmine" (which is one of my fave Police songs, fyi!) - listen here! In fact, my highly sensitive soul is even crying now writing this listening to this song, LOL.
