The Sunday Soother

Hey Soothers! Glad to be here. I've got as an episode for you today, more of a casual voice note, walking through the woods, as I share what's been going on behind the scenes in my life lately.I'm talking about the (sometimes painful) process of growing into a new voice and stepping into a bigger version of myself, and all the discomfort and doubt that brings up. I get into how my sense of identity is shifting (is it ever not?? sheesh), how I'm navigating a season that feels really fallow and in-between, and how spiritual loneliness and frustration with others not voicing their spiritual beliefs publicly is something I'm sitting with lately too.If you're in a liminal season yourself, where things feel slow, uncertain, or like you're not quite who you used to be but not yet who you're becoming, I hope this episode feels like a warm cup of tea and a reminder that you're not alone.Sign up for the Imperfect Artist's Way, starting May 11Trust the Universe with Missy & Catherine podcastJoin the Trust the Universe Membership, $44/month, cancel any time.

Hey, Soothers! Here's my Tarot reading for the month of April 2025, for all. Feels like an understatement to say that growth isn't always easy—it expands us, stretches us, and sometimes contracts us before we bloom again. But this month's Tarot reading for April wants us to remember this: nature moves in rhythms—trees shed their leaves before budding anew, the ocean tides pull back before surging forward, and the moon wanes before it waxes. Just like the natural world, we, too, grow in cycles of expansion and contraction. There are seasons of stretching beyond our comfort zones and seasons of retreat, rest, and integration. Trust that both are necessary.This collective reading reminds us to embrace the sweetness of the present moment, trust that our spirit guides are always near, and move at the pace our soul needs while we go through whatever cycle is occuring. There's no rush. Let life unfold in divine timing. Center yourself as the expansion or contraction (or both!) occur. Join me for Enough Abundance April, pay what you can month-long money & magic groupJoin the next Trust the Universe membership call, Tuesday April 8th (replay provided) all about Everything We Learned About Ancestral Healing in Bali

Hey, Soothers! Here's my Tarot reading for the month of March, for all readers. The cards had a very clear message for the month ahead: You are not alone, and your voice carries more weight than you realize. Spirit, ancestors, your higher self, whoever, are surrounding you, ready to assist—but they need you to ask. At the same time, this is not a moment to stay silent or shrink back. Your words, ideas, and truth matter. Whether it's speaking up for yourself, sharing your wisdom, or calling in the support you need, March is a time to embrace both the power of your voice and the deep well of guidance available to you.Watch the video or listen to the audio for guidance, assignments and ideas on how to do this. Happy March!

Hey Soothers. I hope you are well. I am returning from sabbatical with more urgency than I had imagined, given that Trump has won a second term and we are entering scary, chaotic and even stranger times, politically, societally, and spiritually. I asked Tarot what is the guidance podcast listeners most need to hear now, in the wake of the election results, and I received card #1 of the Major Arcana of Tarot: The Magician. Tune in to receive some short guidance around the magic and the medicine of this card. Don't know or care about Tarot? Still check in; I think you'll find some motivation in this episodes. I'll be back soon-ish with more — life updates from my sabbatical, wedding, and new offers. Dec. 4th, workshop with me and Missy Toy Ozeas: How to Trust the Plan When It Feels Like There's No Plan: Spiritual Surrender in Times of Upheaval, $25, lifetime replayPS: Want to join me for an intentional new year's eve retreat in the Blue Ridge Mountains?

Hey Soothers! A while back I had this idea to, every once in a while, interview intuitives and healers on their health and self-care routines. I don't know about you, but I'm the kind of person who could read an entire magazine based on people's morning routines alone, so I thought it would be fun to do this for us on this podcast, too. Energy and self-care and health routines are also just extra important to the intuitive empath, to help ground and settle us. And the first person I thought of was my dear friend and colleague, energy healer Missy Toy Ozeas! In this episode Missy and I go into extremely granular detail on our morning routines, our diets, self-care routines, skin care routines, and more! Enjoy!Missy and I have also launched the Empath Visibility Accelerator (EVA)! This is our 12-week program for big-hearted HSPs and empaths who want to be more visible in their work in the world, especially if you have spiritual and intuitive gifts but are a little scared to talk more publicly about them. We get it. In the 12 weeks we'll teach you the exact tactics we used to go from very socially anxious, extremely shy women who hid behind corporate careers working for others, to visible spiritual workers showing up bravely in public. EVA starts July 10th, see you in there!The Sunday Soother podcast is a spin-off of The Sunday Soother, a weekly newsletter that creates conversations around compassionate personal development and helps readers access their spirituality, magic and mindfulness in practical, actionable ways.You can find Catherine on her website catherinedandrews.com, or  @catherineandrews on Instagram.

Hey Soothers! EMFs, HSPs, all the acronyms. Today I'm diving in on how I went from somebody who never once thought or worried about non-native EMFs (the electromagnetic fields and radiation produced by technology, appliances, cell phones, wifi routers, etc) to somebody who has started to see a lot of evidence that they are, at the very least, not helping HSPs thrive. I walk you through my own journey of realization of their effects in my personal life, and also then what I've seen and pieced together in my clients' health stories. Most of the conversation around EMFs I've heard has either been panicked and fear-mongering, or judgmental and condescending (that they can't possibly have an effect and anybody who thinks so is a conspiracy theorist) and I think there is a space for a middle ground to think about them and I hope to provide that for you today.If you're interested in learning about to meaningfully reduce EMFs in your life plus other health benefits from nature, geared toward the HSP, sign up for the waitlist for Recharge Your Light.

Hey Soothers, I'm excited to announce my next brand-new course, the HSP health course many of you have been asking for for some time: Recharge Your Light! Starting June 20th, it's a six-week course and community that will help you stop feeling drained and reclaim your energy, your light, and your vitality through holistic principles of nature, circadian rhythms, environment, and diet. Get on the waitlist here for $200 off and access to a free live HSP circadian living training I'll be doing. To help you understand why the tenets in Recharge Your Light are so important to your health as an HSP, today I talk about how and why the human body is a battery system, made of a special kind of water, and charged by light and earth. When our voltage is high and charged? Our health should be pretty good. When it's low or drained? Health conditions and issues may manifest. Listen on for what we can do in simple and easy ways to charge our body's battery so we can have optimal HSP health.

Hey Soothers, I recently put up a question box to do a Q&A podcast (coming soon, submit your Qs here!) but a lot of the Qs I got were around hormonal issues - PMDD, peri-menopause, menopause, so I figured, why not just record an episode with all of my tips for how I have (mostly) healed my severe period symptoms and hormonal issues? And how I'm working to thrive through perimenopause and set up the path for a healthy menopause? So I did! Listen in for these 7 tips. Know they're not medical advice, but rather the (hard-won) lessons from somebody who started out with really horrible PMDD, went into peri-menopause at 38, and now at 44, is feeling, genuinely, better than ever.

Hey Soothers! I'm here to talk about our well-being and our bodies as electrical systems (which, spoiler alert, they really are!). This is why so many of us feel "drained" or "burned out" — in a way, we can think of our bodies as batteries, or lights. Some of us are well-charged and shining bright, and some of us are on our last 5% and feeling the effects. So how can we go from living low-voltage, tired, drained, to high-voltage, feeling vibrant and grounded? I talk about practical ways to start living a high-voltage life and share how I incorporate them in my day-to-day, too.Also inside the Sunday Soother Membership in April we're talking all things getting unstuck.

Hey there, Soothers! Do you feel stuck in life? Spring is a great time to get the energy moving, and I've got some tips on how to do it. I explain the concept of 'getting the chi going' that relates to Feng Shui, about how you can start to create momentum in your life around a particular area, and how I'm starting to do that this April on Instagram by doing a Reel challenge (follow me @catherineandrews).

Have you ever heard of the term aphantasia? Aphantasia is a relatively unstudied phenomenon that involves not being able to visualize images in your mind. Reportedly about 3% of the population have this condition, and I'm one of them.I didn't realize til my late 30s that this was even a thing; I was shocked to find out that most people had the ability to go around doing what essentially sounded like hallucination to me. (I learned about it, as many people did at the time, from this article.) As I read more about how most people can easily visualize or play movies or images in their mind, I grew jealous, especially as I got more into spirituality and manifestation. A huge component of manifestation, meditation and other spiritual practices is often the ability to visualize your desires, or other images, in your mind's eye. I've also been told many times by random people that I'm psychic, but how can somebody be psychic if they can't see, you know, psychic images in their mind's eye?Over time, I've figured out my own ways to tune into spiritual practices that work for me, even though I can't visualize. And that's what I'm sharing about today! Even if you don't have aphantasia, tune in, because these tactics can help everybody deepen their spiritual practices.I'm hosting a free 3 weeks within the Sunday Soother Membership in March, with 6 free new classes to attend.

But also in this podcast, I share examples of how failures aren't failures, they are literally part of the process on the way to the eventual achievement of your goal.

I know a lot of you are motivated, you desire to work and live more into your purpose, and you also may struggle with impostor syndrome or an inner critic. You may feel far away from what you would like to become or be. So today I talk about the importance of consciously finding evidence every day about how you are ALREADY the thing or person you are desiring to be, right now, right in front of you, and I share a couple of stories to ground this concept.The Sunday Soother podcast is a spin-off of The Sunday Soother, a weekly newsletter that creates conversations around compassionate personal development and helps readers access their spirituality, magic and mindfulness in practical, actionable ways.You can find Catherine on her website catherinedandrews.com, or  @catherineandrews on Instagram.

Happy new year, Soothers! For this week's podcast, I am letting you listen into one of my regular Tarot readings in the Sunday Soother Membership. I asked Tarot a few things: What are the energies of 2024, and how can we best navigate these energies to our benefit? The answers I got were very clear, and I'd love to let you listen in so you can get a sense of what 2024 might have in store for us all. There's a bit of a meditation at the start, then some journaling at the end. Enjoy this Tarot lesson, and if you're into it, sign up for the membership! On January 25th inside the membership (Tier 3) I'll be teaching a workshop on how to use Tarot and the feng shui bagua map for goal-setting for the year ahead.The Sunday Soother podcast is a spin-off of The Sunday Soother, a weekly newsletter that creates conversations around compassionate personal development and helps readers access their spirituality, magic and mindfulness in practical, actionable ways.You can find Catherine @candrews on Twitter and Instagram @catherineandrews, and her coaching website is catherinedandrews.com.

Hey Soothers! In today's podcast, I give guidance on a different way you can start to think about change and growth. Many of us cannot change current circumstances for whatever reason; say you want a new job or to quit and take a break, but you have to provide for a family; or maybe you really want to move to Europe, but you have to finish your degree stateside for a year. Not all hope is lost! If we can't change material or physical circumstances quite yet, we can still definitely begin to change *energetically.* This process is making internal and energetic shifts first towards your desired goal, and as you make those internal shifts, the external circumstances will eventually catch up. I share specific tactics for how to do this in today's episode. This podcast is in celebration and promotion of my and Missy's brand-new, never-been-done before, group coaching program, The Energy Alchemy Mini-Mind. It's a 4-month group coaching program for HSP and empath leaders, entrepreneurs, and visionaries who are tired of playing timid good girl on the sideline and are ready to connect fully with their purpose and boldly step into and share their mission, their gifts, and their light with the world.In the mini-mind (limited to 10 participants), every month we'll go over a different energy block that's related to your purpose, and lead you through exercises on energy clearing, EFT tapping, and feng shui. Think of me and Missy like your energy detectives/energy cleaners — we'll come take a look at your energy field, uncover what's blocking you from your purpose, and help clear your path forward.Details all about the mini-mind here; we're on earlybird of $3000 (payment plans available) until Dec. 23, when it goes up to $4000.

Do we all have a purpose? How do we find it? And what does energy have to do with connecting to our life purpose?That's what one of my favorite people in the world, Missy Toy Ozeas, energy healer and intuitive, and I talk about today. Missy and I both stepped into our purpose-driven spiritual careers at roughly the same time, and today we talk about how other HSPs and empaths can discover their own purpose; we share our backstories about the fear and challenges we went through (and still go through!) in accessing and living our purpose; and we dissect how energy work can help you more clearly connect with your purpose.This podcast is in celebration and promotion of my and Missy's brand-new, never-been-done before, group coaching program, The Energy Alchemy Mini-Mind.

Hey Soothers! Today, I turn to some of my greatest teachers: Trees. The ways trees interact with each other has a lot to show us about how we are relationally with others, and where we might want to shift into patterns that better support us. I explain the behaviors of codependency, hyper-independence, and, ultimately, healthy interdependence, and share a metaphor about the ways tree behave that may help you better understand this behavior in yourself.Working on healing codependency and hyper-independence is a huge aspect of Soothe, where we meet in small groups, become vulnerable with other people, and tend compassionately to ourselves as we learn to ask for help and rely on other people. If you heard yourself in this episode, Soothe will be so helpful to you.

Hey, Soothers! In this episode, I meet with my feng shui teacher, Amanda Gibby Peters, to take a holistic view of the power of feng shui for all people, but especially highly sensitive people. Us HSPs are particularly impacted by our environment, and when we choose to work with the tenets of feng shui, energy, and intention, we can really make some radical changes in our homes, and therefore our lives. Amanda Gibby Peters is the voice and visionary of Simple Shui. She's been teaching feng shui techniques and tips for over a decade, witnessing the life transformations of her readers + clients. Amanda is Dallas-based with an international clientele. She lives with her husband and twin daughters, and chronicles her work at www.simpleshui.com.Did this episode pique your interest?

Hey there Soothers! Today I bring to you a lovely, warm group of amazing women — one of my current small groups inside the Soothe mastermind! The small groups are the tender heart of my Soothe program, and by listening today you'll hear straight from a few of the women who are currently in Soothe! I know it's one thing to hear me talk about Soothe, and quite another to hear actual participants, so I hope you'll enjoy this beautiful group of women, why they joined Soothe, and what they are learning and taking away from the program. (And a lot of jokes and laughter — this group is a shining example of the fact that humor and play is healing, too.)Read about Soothe, the year-long circle and group mentorship for highly sensitive women, and book a discovery call: https://www.catherinedandrews.com/sootheIf you book your discovery call by Nov. 30, you'll get a bonus worth $2500: Access to 4 of my online courses, and 9 months access to my Sunday Soother Membership, too!Enrollment for Soothe ends mid-December and I cap the program at 15 women.The Sunday Soother podcast is a spin-off of The Sunday Soother, a weekly newsletter that creates conversations around compassionate personal development and helps readers access their spirituality, magic and mindfulness in practical, actionable ways.You can find Catherine @candrews on Twitter and Instagram @catherineandrews, and her coaching website is catherinedandrews.com.

Hey Soothers! Today I'm so excited to have on Kayse Gehret of Microdosing for Healing. Kayse Gehret is a nature-based healing artist, author, founder and podcast host.  With nearly three decades of experience in the healing arts, Kayse leads Microdosing for Healing - a nationwide virtual community around earth medicine practice - as well as the Best Practices Mastermind for Healers - a global collective of diverse healing artists & health professionals brought together for learning, strategy, growth, collaboration and visioning new healing models for the future. I connected with Kayse over the summer when I took one of her programs. Today we dive into all things microdosing, from our how personal journeys using earth medicine both started, WTF actually IS microdosing, how microdosing in Kayse's experience has helped her clients with nervous system dysregulation, hormonal and menstrual issues, and feminine energy, and lots more. I'll be incorporating microdosing medicine into Soothe, and Kayse is a big reason why — she taught me how plant and earth medicine helps heal us and helps us grow at a different level than cognitive and intellectual understanding can do. Read about Soothe, the year-long circle and group mentorship for highly sensitive women, and book a discovery call: https://www.catherinedandrews.com/sootheIf you book your discovery call by Oct. 31, you'll get a $1500 earlybird discount off Soothe.The Sunday Soother podcast is a spin-off of The Sunday Soother, a weekly newsletter that creates conversations around compassionate personal development and helps readers access their spirituality, magic and mindfulness in practical, actionable ways.You can find Catherine @candrews on Twitter and Instagram @catherineandrews, and her coaching website is catherinedandrews.com.

Hey Soothers! Did you know it's been four years and one month since I left my corporate job and leapt into the great unknown of starting and running my creative online teaching and life coaching and writing and whatever the heck else I do business? I thought I'd take some time to reflect on lessons I've learned about running a business these past four years. In this episode I talk about why you don't need to f*cking scale your business, why regulation is the most important business skill you can learn, how 2023 has been for me compared to past years financially, what I'm noticing in what my audience is desiring, trends I'm generally seeing in the industry, and more.

Are you finding yourself in a moment of transition, change, or upleveling? I know I am and I've heard this echoed from many of you in the Soother audience, too.

This week, I talk about how one of the biggest fear I see in women when they think about taking non-traditional or unconventional risks (leaving a job, moving, anything financial-related) is the big, scary fear of either being arrested/ending up in jail, or ending up homeless, or as a "bag lady." We may poke fun at ourselves when we name this fear, but it has a really serious, deep and ancestral origin that's based in historical occurrences of the past, and I want to dive into that today. Hopefully with this context we can understand where these types of fears come from, why they are with us, and how we can begin to move through them and heal them.Sign up for my New Year's Eve retreat: https://www.kellyabarrett.com/shenandoah-retreatRead about Soothe, the year-long circle and group mentorship for highly sensitive women, and book a discovery call: https://www.catherinedandrews.com/sootheThe Sunday Soother podcast is a spin-off of The Sunday Soother, a weekly newsletter that creates conversations around compassionate personal development and helps readers access their spirituality, magic and mindfulness in practical, actionable ways.You can find Catherine @candrews on Twitter and Instagram @catherineandrews, and her coaching website is catherinedandrews.com.

Hey Soothers! In today's podcast, I explain a metaphor I've been using a lot in my 1:1 coaching lately: That of the rock, and the river. In this metaphor, the rock is the person tossed around by the river, at the mercy of the river, without much agency or control in how it gets swept along. The river, on the other hand, is the life force that moves as it will. When we're in passive mode, not setting boundaries, giving away our power to others, we can think of that like being the rock. But when we're the river, we shift into a force of energy that is powerful. So tune in to hear about how you can become more like the river in your own life.Sign up for my New Year's Eve retreat: https://www.kellyabarrett.com/shenandoah-retreatSign up for the Highly Sensitive Person Leadership Academy (closes Oct. 1): https://www.catherinedandrews.com/hlaGet on the waitlist for Soothe 2024: https://www.catherinedandrews.com/sootheThe Sunday Soother podcast is a spin-off of The Sunday Soother, a weekly newsletter that creates conversations around compassionate personal development and helps readers access their spirituality, magic and mindfulness in practical, actionable ways.You can find Catherine @candrews on Twitter and Instagram @catherineandrews, and her coaching website is catherinedandrews.com.

As I continue to talk about leadership and promote the Highly Sensitive Person Leadership Academy, a theme I want to touch on is that Small Leadership is a skill we're all going to be called on to develop in coming years. This is especially needed as we go into the diminishment of many larger systems outside of us, that we have up until now counted on to lead us. We're in a time when we're moving away from large, monolithic leadership, and we're going into an era of learning to rely on, tend to, step up within local communities. I know a lot of you don't view yourself as leaders, but I'm urging you to reconsider. Leadership isn't going to be optional in the future. We're all going to be called to step up in some way, whether we plan for it or not, whether we want to or not. And that's my mission with HLA. To give you the skills to handle leadership, when that time inevitably comes. That, to me, is small leadership.HLA is now open, with enrollment closing October 1st.

Hey Soothers! Here's something I deeply believe: the body is a sacred vessel. It is the physical container for and way we express our heart, soul and mind in the world. However, too many of us rarely consider our bodies in this process, and it's hard to slow down to connect and listen to its needs and wisdoms. I find HSPs in particular can really struggle with this, as we may have had to disconnect early on in life from our bodies and live mostly in our analytical heads. But the reality is the wisdom of our bodies, and then the care of our bodies, is so important in our work, our leadership, and our life. So today I dive into one way we can begin to get back in rhythm and touch with our bodies — our menstrual cycles. Don't have a cycle? I'll teach you some nature-based strategies for aligning with a similar approach and energy. The future of the world is leadership that is cyclically informed, respectful of our bodies' needs and wisdom, and aligned to a natural cycle. Tuning into our bodies and menstrual cycles is one important way to begin to create this future.Join me for three days in September for the Highly Sensitive Person Leadership Summit!

Have you heard of the concept of non-attachment — releasing shoulds or clinging to how people or circumstances should be, or attaching to material items — and thought, "Sounds cool, but hard, and uh, how does one do that?" Well, I was recently given a potent lesson in non-attachment and how easily I got attached to a particular outcome, and this lesson was delivered to me by unlikely teachers: two spectacularly cute kittens. Tune in for a quick explainer of how attachment can show up in our lives and how we can begin to release it and surrender and allow the flow of life in instead.Join me for three days in September for the Highly Sensitive Person Leadership Summit!

Hey there, Soothers! As you know I'm opening my Highly Sensitive Person Leadership Academy on September 5th to the waitlist (it'll open to the public two weeks later) and today I wanted to root and ground in on what I even mean by leadership. I think HSPs and women overall balk at the concept of calling themselves a leader, one, because we see what leadership looks like today and it's like... no thank you, and also possibly because it's simply not how we see ourselves. Today I'd like to challenge that assumption. I think each human on earth has the potential and calling to be a leader in our own way and I'd like to activate that within you and cast a new vision for leadership in the world.

I have a really true and deep belief that in how our society is unfolding, empathetic and heart-centered and feminine leaders will be the ones who are going to help us go where we need to go, because our entire model of leadership has been so warped and dominated by masculine energy and patriarchy.As we move into August and September, I have a couple of free offerings I wanted to tell you about to help educate you on the front of what feminine and sensitive leadership could look like, and I talk about that today.Get on my waitlist for my leadership program for the following:August exclusive emails teaching principles of feminine leadershipAccess to a September 3-day leadership summit for highly sensitive people (free, replays provided)And eventually a discount for when HLA opens to the waitlist on September 5Want to know your Highly Sensitive Person Leadership Style?

One thing I hear so many of my clients and audience say is that they desire to stop being so in their masculine energy in their life, but they don't know where or how to start. So today I'm walking you through understanding what feminine energy is, how we can begin to embody it healthily, and also, how we can use surrendered feminine energy both in our manifestation practices, and in our romantic relationships, too. Because many of us are embodying a controlling, critical element in the way we interact with the world, and often with our romantic partners, too, and I want to showcase some possibilities for showing you how to release that controlling energy (which is an unhealthy masculine energy) so you can regain some balance in the way you manifest with the universe, and the way you are with your partner. So let's dive in!Intrigued by my takes on manifestation?

One reason I think so many of us roll our eyes at the concept of manifestation is that we assume it's about purely material things, or about getting large sums of money, and for plenty of us, those are topics we're wary about or that aren't that motivating to us. Also, many of us see the damage that unfettered capitalism has done to humans, society and the earth and are wary of engaging with a spiritual practice that seems to be about further material accumulation. But I'm here to tell you today, don't let capitalism — or your own internalized capitalism — ruin what can be a really beautiful and delightful experience. Manifestation isn't, to me, at its core about acquiring material items or showy amounts of money; it's about allowing the desires on your heart, from small to large, to unfold in the material plane. Tune into to listen to me tell stories of manifestation that have nothing to do with money or material items and why they are just as special, and how you can begin to have those experiences, too.Intrigued?

Hey there, Soothers! If you're anything like me, you might consider yourself a pretty logical, practical person. And... you might be a little spiritually curious, too. If you've heard of the concept of manifesting and are intrigued by it, but also think it sounds a little bonkers and cringe and gross, and yet, something in you still wants to know more, come listen to this episode. In it I talk about manifestation misconceptions, why you don't have to consider yourself spiritual to engage with manifestation, why we must consider trauma and privilege when it comes to the concept, and I give you very practical steps to start whatever your manifestation practice might look like. This is an episode for us realists out there, but who also maybe want to believe in a little bit of magic again.Intrigued?

Hey Soothe pod crew! This is another audio excerpt from my Instagram series, Wednesday Wisdom.  Enjoy!Welcome to another Wednesday Wisdom, where I coach and teach on concepts of leadership for the highly sensitive person! Today I'm discussing what I think is the most important, but least discussed or understand element of leadership, and that is leadership of Self.This can be a complicated concept to understand but well worth your time. When we have self leadership, we are becoming the healthy, compassionate, curious and confident Self leader, internally, to many of our multiplicity of parts of our psyche. We may have an inner critic. A rash part. A creative part. An inner child. An angry part. An overworking part, a people-pleasing part. We have so many parts, some which we may classify as “good” and some which may annoy or irritate us or that we wish would somehow just go *poof* But we also have a Self. And the Self is our core quality of a higher self of sorts, that embodies certain characteristics, and is ultimately meant to lead, compassionately, all of our other parts. In this Instagram live I talk about the 8 Cs and the 5 Ps - all the qualities of the Self - and how we can begin to cultivate our Self more. Because when we can truly lead INTERNALLY, all of our parts that need us, THEN we can begin to authentically and powerfully lead others, externally. Interested in this concept? I will be diving into Self Leadership in the Highly Sensitive Person Leadership Academy, which opens for enrollment in September. Get on the waitlist at catherinedandrews.com/hla for exclusive content, discounts and more.

Hey there! In today's podcast, I'm sharing an Instagram Live I did last week, all about the importance of identity in leadership, especially as a highly sensitive person. Identity shifts are one of the most important aspects of change, and if you want to step into being an authentic leaders, you must change your identity from a Follower identity to a Leader identity.
