Healing High Sensitivity: From Emotional Suppression to Self-Compassion
In this deeply honest and reflective conversation, Dr. Jessie sits down with Elizabeth “Biz” Cush, licensed therapist, podcast host, and guide for highly sensitive women, to explore a life shaped by emotional suppression, resilience, and profound personal healing.
Elizabeth shares her journey from growing up as a highly sensitive child in an emotionally disconnected family, navigating her parents’ divorce, early independence, depression, and unhealthy relationships, to eventually finding stability, self-trust, and purpose through therapy, connection, and deep inner work. What began as survival slowly transformed into clarity, compassion, and a calling to help others heal.
This episode dives into:
• Growing up emotionally unsupported as a highly sensitive child
• “Free-range” childhoods, independence, and unprocessed emotions
• Parental divorce, grief, and early coping through substances
• Depression, therapy, and the impact of toxic relationships
• Estrangement, self-reliance, and rebuilding emotional stability
• The journey from motherhood to becoming a therapist later in life
• High sensitivity as a trait, not a flaw
• Learning to feel deeply without becoming overwhelmed
• Healing childhood wounds through self-compassion and awareness
• Becoming a “wounded healer” and guiding others toward wholeness
Elizabeth’s story is grounded, vulnerable, and deeply reassuring for anyone who has ever been told they were “too sensitive,” struggled to feel understood, or sensed there was more healing waiting beneath the surface.
This conversation is especially for those who feel deeply, think deeply, and are learning how to care for themselves in a world that often feels too loud, too fast, or too much.
