In this episode, I dive into how overstimulation and overwhelm impact me as a highly sensitive person (HSP) and how understanding these traits has helped me better support myself in managing them. I share personal examples of what overstimulates me, like noise and visual clutter, and the simple steps I take to reduce these stressors and maintain balance. I emphasize the importance of not judging myself for my sensitivity but rather embracing it, and how this mindset shift allows me to thrive.

• How overstimulation manifests for HSPs (e.g., noise, clutter, or too many people).
• Practical strategies to manage overstimulation, like tidying up, taking breaks, or going outside.
• The importance of owning your sensitivity and not feeling ashamed of it.
• How self-awareness and self-compassion can help you thrive as an HSP.
• Tips for creating your unique "guidebook" to managing sensitivity and avoiding overwhelm.
• The power of establishing boundaries and communicating your needs confidently.
