TITLE

When Others Don’t Communicate the Way You Do

 

GUEST

Solo Episode

 

EPISODE OVERVIEW

As a Highly Sensitive Person, we often expect others to be able to communicate the way we do.  My son is having challenges with his 3 roommates, and it got me thinking about how Highly Sensitive People (HSPs) tend to show up in relationships, and what can we do in those relationships where the other person cannot see or own their part; they blame, and open communication is not possible.

 

 

HIGHLIGHTS

• Highly Sensitive Persons (HSPs) often are able to communicate with honesty, openness and an ability to hear another person’s perspective
• We are often surprised, angry and disappointed when we learn that others may not have the same capacity that we do
• How do we navigate this?
• If it’s a relationship where we don’t have as much freedom to choose (a boss, school, family relationships), can we put on a “game face” and hold the tender parts of our being back?
• Can we recognize that this is a limitation in the relationship?
• Sometimes we don’t know the other person has a limitation until we have conflict or competing needs
• Sometimes we can work through this
• What are the deal breakers?
