The Sensitive & Soulful Show

125. How to Balance Being Highly Sensitive and a High Achiever


Listen Later

I grew up thinking that I shouldn't have big dreams or go after what I wanted. We are fed this narrative to take it slow and rest and you don't always have to be productive - which is true to a point.


I felt wrong for wanting more. I felt like I had to hide the fact that I was an overachiever. But I've learned to stop apologizing for that. I've learned to be grateful for where I am but always pushing for more if that's what lights me up!


In this episode, you'll learn:

  • About my journey with overachieving
  • Why it's important to be grateful with where you are
  • That it's okay to be an HSP and ambitious
