Do you find yourself stuck in loops of overthinking, second-guessing every decision, and fearing you’ll make the wrong choice? For highly sensitive people, overthinking isn’t just a mindset—it’s often a nervous system response that erodes self-trust. In this episode of the Highly Sensitive & Strong Podcast, we’ll explore why highly sensitive people (HSPs) struggle with self-doubt and how to begin trusting your body’s cues again.

You’ll learn:

• Why overthinking feels safer than deciding

• How to shift from perfectionism to aligned decision-making

• How to start building self-trust through small, everyday choices

• A personal story about navigating big life decisions without spiraling into doubt

If you’ve ever used food to numb emotions, soothe overstimulation, or escape anxiety—you are not alone. In this powerful interview, I sit down with binge eating recovery coach Lucy Newport to explore the unique challenges highly sensitive people face around food, self-worth, and emotional overwhelm.

Lucy shares her personal 14-year struggle with binge eating and anxiety, and how healing her nervous system and embracing her sensitivity helped her find lasting freedom.

We discuss:

• Why highly sensitive people are more prone to binge or emotional eating

• The nervous system’s role in food behaviors

• Why traditional recovery models often miss the mark for HSPs

• Practical, compassionate steps to break free from shame and self-judgment

This conversation is full of wisdom, hope, and gentle encouragement for anyone feeling stuck, ashamed, or exhausted in their relationship with food.

What would it feel like to be on your own side?

As highly sensitive people, we often internalize harsh messages—learning to motivate ourselves through criticism rather than care. But true healing comes when we begin to soften that inner voice and replace judgment with compassion.

In this guided practice episode, you’ll be gently supported in shifting from self-criticism to self-kindness. Through grounding breath, visualization, and compassionate phrases, you’ll begin cultivating the voice of your inner ally—the part of you that knows you are worthy, even when you struggle.

Whether your inner critic is loud today or barely a whisper, this practice will help you reconnect with your own strength, gentleness, and self-trust.

This is the final episode in our May series on self-compassion and inner healing—but this work doesn’t end here.

Self-compassion sounds simple—but for many highly sensitive women, it’s one of the hardest things to actually practice.

In this episode, we explore why being kind to yourself can feel so foreign, even when you want to. From people-pleasing and perfectionism to shame and childhood conditioning, we take a deeper look at the nervous system patterns that make self-judgment feel safer than self-kindness.

You’ll hear a personal story about vulnerability, rejection, and the inner critic—and use a powerful 3-step tool to begin shifting from self-blame to self-support.

If you’ve ever thought, “If I slow down, I’ll fall behind,” or “If people really knew me, they’d leave,” this episode is for you.
