TITLE

Loyalty—How We Perceive Things Differently, & Relationships

 

GUEST

Solo Episode

 

EPISODE OVERVIEW

Highly Sensitive Persons (HSPs) tend to be incredibly loyal.  This can pose a challenge when we’re in relationships that aren’t working for us. Some HSPs struggle with conflict and setting boundaries; because we feel more empathy, we can imagine how the other person might feel.  HSPs notice things that others don’t, which can also create challenges when we perceive things, and we feel that no one else gets why we’re upset (or why certain behaviors don’t work, or aren’t acceptable to us).  We have an opportunity to validate what we experience.

• The pattern of being in relationships that don’t work—the different cycles we experience

• Highly Sensitive Persons (HSPs) tend to be really loyal when it comes to relationships.
• HSPs sometimes feel uncomfortable with conflict and setting boundaries. This can make it harder when it comes to ending relationships, or setting limits in relationships
• Why naming what we’re experiencing/feeling is so important
• If we don’t name things, the energy comes out “sideways”
• What do you do when you have long standing friendships, but they’re no longer working or meeting your needs?
• HSPs are going to notice more things than non-HSPs. This can also cause us to question our perception, or our sense of reality
• When we are feeling something that others aren’t aware of, we have an opportunity to validate our experience, because WE feel it
• Some aspects of relationships to look at to evaluate how it’s working
