Sensitive Stories

61: Breaking the Cycle of Self-Sacrifice


Listen Later

How often do you take care of yourself? In this episode, I talk with Angelique Foye-Fletcher, LMFT, RPT about breaking the cycle of self-sacrifice and:  

• How your cultural upbringing shapes your identity as an HSP 

• Learning to take care of yourself when you grew up in an environment or culture that didn’t have room for your sensitivity 

• Why simple acts of mindfulness are deeply healing and can change the way you parent 

Angelique Foye-Fletcher (she/her) is a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist and Registered Play Therapist who helps sensitive, neurodivergent adults and caregivers heal through her four pillars of Books, Nature, Play, and Connection. An INFJ, HSP, and Enneagram 4, Angelique brings curiosity, ritual, and deep empathy into her work—often lighting incense or walking in nature as part of her own healing practice.
