Unapologetically Sensitive

3 Year Podcast Anniversary: 7 Strategies for Success

Solo episode

EPISODE OVERVIEW

Success is not linear. Nor is it about waiting to have the confidence to do new things. Success is messy, and it often involves lots of fear, doubt and insecurities. If we wait until we feel confident, we may never do the thing. I share 7 strategies I've used that help me as a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP), deep feeler, deep thinker and creative. These strategies help me feel the fear; both push forward and honor my own pacing.

She created the podcast Unapologetically Sensitive to help other HSPs know that they aren't alone, and that being an HSP has amazing gifts, and some challenges. Patricia works online globally working individually with people, and she teaches Online Courses for HSPs that focus on understanding what it means to be an HSP, self-care, self-compassion, boundaries, perfectionism, mindfulness, communication, and creating a lifestyle that honors us

Attachment Relationships & The Highly Sensitive Person (HSP)

GUEST

Solo episode

EPISODE OVERVIEW

Relationships can be challenging—especially when we have attachment injuries and we haven't had healthy role modeling. We may believe we are too much. We want others to show up for us in ways that may not be realistic. We have experienced hurt, disappointment and frustration. We can get stuck in a wounded narrative about how people aren't here for us. It's important to do our own healing, and to honor the hurt young parts that often run havoc in our lives. We want interdependence; we can have fulfilling relationships.

Some of the Challenges the Highly Sensitive Person (HSP) Experiences in Groups

GUEST

Solo episode

EPISODE OVERVIEW

Joining groups can be painful for the Highly Sensitive Person (HSP) for a number of reasons. Group experiences have left us feeling misunderstood, invalidated, judged and alienated. Does our previous trauma, play a role in how we approach groups? Being parentified and having to be in charge can impact our ability to trust and feel safe. It's important to understand where our trauma (bad experiences) impact us so that we can heal in relationships. Interdependence can be very powerful.

It's OK to Choose and Rechoose

GUEST

Solo episode

EPISODE OVERVIEW

Many Highly Sensitive People (HSPs) are often hard on themselves when they don't finish something, or they decide to do something else. This doesn't equal failure. It's ok to be undecided; unsure and to re-evaluate. Often if we have experienced CPTSD, we can struggle with trusting ourselves; we can feel overwhelmed, and we can believe that we are not good enough. Using mindfulness, self-compassion and humor can help us during challenging times.

TITLE

I don't want to be defined by my fear

GUEST

Solo episode

EPISODE OVERVIEW

My podcast pause turned into a literal break of my wrist. It is not uncommon for HSPs to experience catastrophic thinking. We can learn to move from that initial fearful thought into powerful thinking. We can learn to feel the fear and do the scary thing instead of waiting to feel confident. We can use mindfulness, self-compassion and humor to challenge ourselves so we can live a full expansive lives.

Taking a Podcast Pause; Self-Care

GUEST

Solo episode

EPISODE OVERVIEW

I'm taking a pause from the podcast. Not sure if it's temporary or permanent. COVID has been brutal, but it has given us opportunities to redefine what we value. I initially had thoughts of failure when I decided to take a break, but now I see it as an act of self-love. We all should have joy, laughter and creativity in our lives! I share how I'm working on getting back in balance, and I pose questions for you to reflect on to assess where you're at. Thank you SO MUCH for being a listener! I am grateful.

HIGHLIGHTS

  • Reposting things others are creating—thrilled to promote other creators
  • If I do anything out of fear of lack (money, downloads, follows, engagement, clients) I'm perpetuating lack, and I'll never know whether or not I can truly be me and have what I want.
    • When we're not authentic in relationships—we hide our messy parts out of fear—we always have to pretend- we can't settle into who we are
  • Actively thinking about what I want more of

    • Looking for other couples we can spend time with

Not sure if the podcast is on a temporary or permanent pause

• Clients—continuing to see clients
• Taking all holidays off, and I'll probably be taking a few weeks off/year (every few months)—haven't figured this out yet
• Fresh for myself and for my client (and family and friends) we all deserve to have the best of me--privilege
• Plan is to continue the Online HSP Course
• June, September
• Sign up for my newsletter (unapologetically sensitive.com—subscribe to newsletter)

Complex childhood trauma and healing for the Highly Sensitive Person (HSP)

We talk what may not be considered trauma (but is), and how it impacts the person in adulthood (including attachment systems).

Kina also provides examples of things we can do heal as well as the importance of co-regulation.

GUEST

She has worked as a trauma counselor at a domestic violence center, and as a developmental specialist for at-risk children.
