Most of us who are highly sensitive didn’t have parents, teachers, or mentors in our lives who understood that our nervous system processes the world differently. Because we were misunderstood, we didn’t receive the support we needed to learn how to use our highly sensitive nature to work for us. Instead, we learned to pretend we are someone we’re not; to disallow our needs, to devalue our worth, and to hide our difference.

In this episode, I’m sharing how to shift the highly sensitive shadow of people pleasing so you can show up authentically in the world to fulfill your destiny, your vocation, and your life purpose. It’s time to embrace your differences and accept the challenge of learning to lead and live your life from a place of your unique, highly sensitive strengths.

“Most of us were not taught how to use our nervous system to work for us.” – Heather Dominick

“The purpose of individuation is to bring about wholeness in the individual.” – Heather Dominick

When you’re operating from an anxious attachment style – filtered through fear, hurt, anger, and rejection – it’s all too easy to become overly sensitive to others’ actions and moods. To take others’ behaviors too personally. Which can leave you feeling (and acting) highly emotional, argumentative, combative, and irrational.

There is a better way.

Join me as I share what’s really needed to make the journey from anxious to secure. In this episode, you’ll learn how to manage and communicate your emotions and needs honestly, openly, and with empathy, so you can create an experience of trust and mutuality – for yourself and others. Change the pattern. Do it differently.

“The longest journey is between the head and the heart or between understanding and knowing.” – Heather Dominick

“Anxious is cowardice and doubt; secure is courage and conviction.” – Heather Dominick

To be able to operate optimally as a highly sensitive and reduce nervous system overwhelm, you need to consciously create transitions. This is what I call entry/ re-entry.

As you began to treat those transition times as an experience on their own, you’ll find that everything starts to happen much more smoothly, much more effortlessly, and with much more peace.

Listen in to learn how to consciously create transitions for yourself to save energy, save time, save money and make more impact and more income with less effort.  Take charge of your nervous system. Take charge of your life.

“Entry reentry is about consciously creating transition in order to support the reduction of nervous system overwhelm.” – Heather Dominick

“Those times of entry and reentry are an experience to themselves.” – Heather Dominick

Shame is the primary reason that Highly Sensitive Entrepreneurs and Leaders are taken out. Taken out of creating what you want in your business. Taken out of authentically showing up in your relationships. Taken out of fulfilling your life purpose.

Addressing shame is the ultimate choice point that you are guaranteed to face over and over again on your highly sensitive leadership journey.

The good news is that it doesn’t have to take you out.

In this podcast episode, I’m sharing 5 practical approaches to support you with counteracting the shame spiral so you can learn to recognize, identify and most importantly transform your unconscious, triggered reactions to shame and instead, respond from a place of empowerment and strength.

“Our shame shields are directly connected to our experience of resistance.” – Heather Dominick

“Often a trigger is associated to a historical experience versus what’s actually happening in the moment.” – Heather Dominick

There’s a lot of value in having a grand vision but, too many Highly Sensitive Entrepreneurs (HSEs) get lost and overwhelmed in our Visionary Strength and can’t find their way to the next step actions that will actually bring that grand vision into creation – leaving them feeling stuck and unable to move forward.

Sound familiar?

Listen in to Part 3 of this 3 Part Episode series to learn what’s really stopping you from taking action (it’s not what you think!) and how to move out of resistance and make deliberate choices to Take Consistent Action to create what you really want – with CONFIDENCE.

“We tend to rebel against those places where we have subjugated ourselves significantly in the past.” – Heather Dominick.

One of the most important aspects of creating what you want as a Highly Sensitive Entrepreneur (HSE) is having clarity. Clarity about what it is that you want to create. And clarity about what you really need in order to create it.

In Part 2 of this 3 Part Episode series, I’ll help you get clear on what you need – your current “Dire Need Income Goal” AND the actions you’re meant to take to meet that need in a way that’s motivating rather than overwhelming – so that you’re always hitting the income goals that truly make the most sense for YOU – with less effort and more ease.

Dare to allow yourself to be clear about what you want and the steps you need to take to create it.

“What do you need step by step to move the business, move the leadership focus forward over the next 30 days?” – Heather Dominick.

Let’s be honest, as a highly sensitive, it’s so easy to get caught up in the triggers of daily life. Constantly being tossed into the shadows of your coping cycle.  Feeling like you’re never quite getting what you really want.

The truth is, you can create anything you want. Literally anything. The only thing that will keep that from you is not knowing what you want because of Highly Sensitive Shadows such as overwhelm, over-protection and analysis paralysis. Because of socialized expectations. Because of limiting beliefs.

In Part 1 of this 3 Part Episode Series, I’m sharing the first step to confidently creating ANYTHING you want. You’ll also learn a powerful exercise I personally use that will instantly reset your nervous system when you find yourself overloaded and overwhelmed – all so that you’re quickly able to shift out of, what I call, your HSE shadows and into your Highly Sensitive Strengths.

Choose to create rather than cope or crash.

“Most Highly Sensitives don’t get what they want.” – Heather Dominick.

As a Highly Sensitive Entrepreneur (HSE) your number one priority is to be selling in your business. Why? Because that’s what allows you to stay in business! And staying in business allows you to be of service and being of service allows you to use your highly sensitive gifts to make a difference for others and making a difference for others allows you to fulfill your life purpose.

And yet, it’s the one area of entrepreneurship where highly sensitives tend to have the highest level of resistance.

In this episode, I’m sharing some of the biggest blocks for HSE’s when it comes to marketing and selling, the tools I’ve personally used to successfully break through these blocks and the key to shifting your selling experience from stress-filled and anxiety-ridden to one of ease – and believe it or not – even fun.

“Highly Sensitives tend to avoid what’s right in front of us, which are the people we are already currently connected to. ” – Heather Dominick

The collective tension in our world right now is at an all time high and as a highly sensitive, you’re likely feeling that tension immensely. You’re being brought to choice points more frequently and more quickly than most of us have ever experienced in our lifetimes. Your resilience is consistently being challenged.

Although it may FEEL uncomfortable, tension can be a proactive energy that fuels change and inspires you to action.

Tune in to learn three key elements you can consciously cultivate to access resilience, own who you are as a highly sensitive and use this to create the business and life you desire.

“We are being brought to choice points more frequently and more quickly than most of us have ever experienced in our lifetimes.” – Heather Dominick.

Do you find yourself in a repeating pattern of setting goals that you never quite reach, only to be left feeling like you’re constantly missing the mark?

If there’s one thing that going from personal bankruptcy to being the steward of a consistent 7-figure mission has taught me over my almost 20 years of being self-employed it’s now deeply knowing – it doesn’t need to be this way.

Listen in as I share how to go beyond the limited thinking that you’re seeing everywhere in the news and on social media and learn how to use your Highly Sensitive Strength of Intuition to support you in setting AND meeting goals that excite you!

“Intuitive goal setting is about connecting into the heart, getting clear about what you desire, using energy management tools in our work to support your level of belief that you can have what you desire.” – Heather Dominick.
