Vulnerability and Intimacy in Relationships 

Highly Sensitive People (HSPs) often don't reach out when they need support because they are afraid that they will overwhelm others with their intense feelings, or that the other person won't be there for them, or will disappoint them.  Jen and I talk about what it's like to show up for each other when we're having an emotionally intense time.  We talk about the need for connection; the boundaries we set, and how we nurture our relationship.  Jen talks about some of her fears related to the podcast.

PODCAST HOST

Patricia is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, and Coach.  She knows what it's like to feel like an outcast, misfit, and truthteller.  Learning about the trait of being a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP), helped Patricia rewrite her history with a deeper understanding, appreciation, and a sense of self-compassion.  She created the podcast Unapologetically Sensitive to help other HSPs know that they aren't alone, and that being an HSP has amazing gifts, and some challenges.  Patricia works online globally working individually with people, and she teaches Online Courses for HSPs that focus on understanding what it means to be an HSP, self-care, self-compassion, boundaries, perfectionism, mindfulness, communication, and creating a lifestyle that honors us.
