The Unsung Heroes: A Tribute to Highly Sensitive Men

In this episode, we delve into the misunderstood world of highly sensitive men. Inspired by my mentor, Dr. Barbara Herlihy, a pioneer of feminist theory in psychology, we explore how this theory benefits not only women but also men, particularly those who are highly sensitive. Amidst the current climate of women's empowerment, I share my concern about the marginalization of men, drawing from personal experiences and highlighting the positive influence of sensitive men in my life. We look at questions and struggles of highly sensitive men of all ages, underscoring the importance of fostering healthy masculine energy without stigmatizing sensitivity. The conversation also delves into the balance of power in gender relationships, emphasizing the need to educate both sexes about their inherent strengths and not to abuse them. We address the fears around male energy, particularly for those with traumatic histories, and suggest working towards building trust and safety. The goal is to keep the conversation going, encouraging understanding, acceptance, and most importantly, communication in our diverse world.
