KEY TAKEAWAYS

It’s a personality temperament and way of being where your nervous systems are highly responsive and perceptive

You need to honour your sensitivity and design your life around being a HSP

HSPs are emotionally responsive creative thinkers who very quickly join the dots

Being a HSP can have both advantages and challenges

Sensitivity and tenderness are traits that are important for leadership

Coming together in the workplace should be intentional planned connection and collaboration

HSPs, as chief noticers in the world, see the dots and have rich solutions to offer the world

You can advocate to change the culture in the world around you and beyond

The starting point is to feel seen and valued, as a HSP, recognise your strength and hold on to its value

Everybody deserves a happy space

If the people designing and shaping the world we live in design for the sensitive then they will be designing for everybody

Neuro sensitivity should be considered as part of inclusivity

Tune in before you lean in when deciding on what your body needs to calm it

BEST MOMENTS

‘Recognising the goodness in the sensitivity and seeing it in its wholeness was very empowering’

‘They are out there inviting a more tender world’

‘If we know our boundaries we can defend them and hold onto our compassion’
