Special 1 Year Podcast Anniversary Episode

GUEST

Solo Episode

EPISODE OVERVIEW

On the One Year Anniversary of this podcast launching, I talk about 10 different ways that I have grown, and how this relates to being a Highly Sensitive Person, aka HSP. I talk about perfectionism, being of service, naming things, asking for help & support, feeling the fear and being brave and courageous, authenticity, connecting, accepting challenges and living a fuller life. A special thank you to each and every listener!

7. Expressing ourselves authentically and vulnerably
8. Connecting
9. Accepting challenges

• Living a fuller life

• What I've learned in this past year podcasting
• When we have a message to share, it is more important to get it out there, then to wait until it's perfect
• The world may never hear our message
• Done is better than perfect
• Naming things is one of the most powerful things we can do
• We let ourselves know that what's going on is important
• It creates room for change
• It allows for acceptance
• Often just showing up is enough—even when we don't feel like it
• If we've experienced Childhood Emotional Neglect (CEN) or have parents who are Emotionally Immature, it may be harder to know that we're supposed to need help
• Interdependence is healthy
• It's ok to resist asking for help, and we can do it anyway
• We might be surprised by how much help we receive
• Feel the fear and do it anyway; this creates courage and being brave
• It can be scary allowing ourselves to be seen
• We may receive criticism or unsolicited feedback, but we may also get all kinds of amazing support
• We just need to show up and be ourselves; the people who are supposed to be in our lives will be attracted to us
• It's normal to compare ourselves with others. We can notice, and refocus on what we have to offer
• 30 day podcasting challenge changed my life
• NadPodPoMO—National Podcast Post Month with Jennifer Navarrete
