Exploring Sensitive Leadership with Nina Khoo
Manage episode 407356394 series 3559694
On this week’s episode of the Prosperous Empath®, we’ll explore how to effectively lead as a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP), mitigate challenges, and work with your strengths. I’m thrilled to sit down with Nina Khoo, a Sensitive Leadership Coach and a Master NLP Coach who helps HSPs understand and embrace their unique wiring so they can become confident and empathetic leaders. It’s common for Highly Sensitive People to believe that they’re not capable of effective leadership and struggle with overwhelm, perfectionism, and second-guessing. Nina and I uncover how our greatest strengths can sometimes be the traits we feel most self-conscious about and pose a central question: How does a Highly Sensitive Person protect their gifts as a leader? As an empath and an HSP, your brain is physiologically wired to take more information in and process it more deeply, which can be an incredibly powerful leadership skill. Yet, it can also lead to overwhelm and self-criticism. Through our conversation, you’ll learn how to approach leadership in a more sensitive, empathetic, and compassionate way so you can own your gifts and make a bigger difference in the world.
Topics:
- Why HSPs feel that they’re not capable of being effective leaders and how the traits you may feel self-conscious about can be your greatest gifts
- Overcoming overwhelm, perfectionism, and the tendency to subordinate your wisdom as an empathetic leader
- Cultivating awareness of how your brain is psychologically wired as a Highly Sensitive Person and learning how to use your unique wiring to your advantage
- Getting out of the procrastination and self-doubt cycle, learning how to own your HSP gifts instead of minimizing them, and coming back to your true why
- The future of business leadership and why the world needs more sensitive, compassionate, and empathetic leaders
