“Would I change the fact that I'm sensitive? No way.” — April Snow
When your environment sounds too loud, or the fabrics you’re wearing don’t feel right or you’re exhausted from trying to keep everyone around you happy, you might find yourself wishing that you weren’t highly sensitive. But if you weren’t highly sensitive, you might miss so much. In this episode of the Awaken Your Wise Woman podcast, host Elizabeth “Biz” Cush, LCPC, a licensed professional therapist, founder of Progression Counseling in Maryland and Delaware, and a mid-life women’s coach, welcomes back April Snow, LMFT, the San Francisco-based host of the Sensitive Stories podcast and author of Find Your Strength and other titles. They share about coming to recognize their sensitivity and understanding how it shapes their reactions to the world. They also talk about empathy as a highly sensitive trait and how it can both enrich us drive us to the edge of overwhelm, and they discuss how we can bring it into balance and manage our day in ways that help us experience the richness of our gifts.
