In this episode, I’m joined by Alissa Boyer, a mentor for highly sensitive people (HSPs), to discuss the often-overlooked reality of men as HSPs and the unique challenges they face in embracing their sensitivity. And that 20% of the population—men and women alike—are highly sensitive? Yet, due to societal conditioning, men are frequently encouraged to hide their sensitivity, seeing it as a weakness rather than a strength.

Alissa and I dive into the impact of these expectations on men’s emotional expression and how vulnerability can serve as a powerful tool for connection and growth. We explore practical ways for men to nurture empathy and emotional openness and discuss why embracing sensitivity can enrich both personal and professional relationships.

This episode is a must-listen if you’re interested in understanding the role of sensitivity in men’s lives and the transformative power of emotional awareness. Tune in for a thought-provoking conversation that challenges stereotypes and celebrates the strength in vulnerability.
