Not Too Sensitive - Empowering Highly Sensitive People (HSPs) To Own Their Sensitivity

224. What To Do When Someone Makes You Feel Small (Stop Shrinking + Start Carrying Yourself With Confidence)


Listen Later

In this episode, Alissa shares a powerful behind-the-scenes moment from the very first Not Too Sensitive Club call, where the group explored how to use triggers as opportunities for healing instead of evidence that something is “wrong” with you.

Through a real client example, she breaks down exactly how to move from blaming, spiraling, or shutting down to curiosity, self-validation, and empowered action.

This conversation offers a grounded, compassionate reminder that being highly sensitive doesn’t mean you’re fragile. It means you have a deeper invitation to grow, self-advocate, and trust your own worth.

What You’ll Learn:

  • How to shift from “Why is this happening to me?” to “What is this showing me?”
  • The essential first step in working with any trigger
  • The difference between self-validation and relying on others to feel worthy
  • Why confidence can feel like “arrogance” for HSPs — and how to reframe it
  • A guiding question to help you choose the most empowered response
