Can empathy actually become unhealthy? We often treat empathy as an unquestionable strength—but when caring turns into emotional over-responsibility, projection, rescuing, guilt, or self-abandonment, empathy can quietly begin controlling your life. In this episode of The Positivity Xperience, we explore the psychology behind over-identifying with other people's emotions, believing you know exactly how someone else feels, staying in relationships because you are terrified of hurting someone, and using the identity of being an "empath" to excuse your own behavior or tolerate unhealthy behavior from others. We'll discuss cognitive versus affective empathy, emotional contagion, projection, anthropomorphism, hypervigilance, anticipatory guilt, negative reinforcement, responsibility beliefs, and why people who grew up monitoring other people's moods may become adults who feel responsible for everyone's emotional state. We also examine why understanding someone's trauma does not require tolerating their behavior, how empathy can become rescuing, and why another person's pain does not automatically mean your boundary or decision is wrong. You'll learn how to distinguish between what you actually know about someone else's emotional experience and the story your own nervous system may be creating—including the ways we sometimes project human emotional narratives onto animals. Healthy empathy does not require self-abandonment. You can care deeply about another person's feelings without becoming responsible for preventing them. In This Episode Cognitive empathy versus affective empathy Why "I'm an empath" can become an identity Projection and assuming other people feel what you would feel Emotional contagion versus accurate emotional perception How childhood hypervigilance can look like extreme empathy Staying in relationships because you're afraid of hurting someone Anticipatory guilt and emotional avoidance Why understanding trauma can lead to excusing harmful behavior Anthropomorphism and projecting human stories onto animals Empathy versus rescuing Why another person's disappointment doesn't automatically mean you did something wrong The responsibility distortion: "They're upset, therefore I caused it, therefore I must fix it" How to practice empathy without abandoning yourself Empathy should help you understand other people. It should not require you to disappear for them. Become A Patreon: www.patreon.com/thepositivityxperience Let's Work Together: www.thepositivityxperience.com
Empaths are often incredibly good at understanding everyone else. But how much of that empathy are you giving yourself? In this episode of Your Yes Filled Life, Brenda sits down with psychiatrist, bestselling author, and empath expert Dr. Judith Orloff for a conversation about empathy, boundaries, intuition, self-trust, and the importance of self-empathy. Because caring deeply about other people doesn't require abandoning yourself. Brenda and Dr. Judith Orloff - known as the Godmother of the Empath Movement, explore what it means to experience the world as an empath, why boundaries matter, how sensitive people can work with their nervous systems, and what changes when you begin extending some of the compassion you so readily offer other people toward yourself. If you're someone who can understand everybody else's needs, feelings, reactions, and reasons—but still struggles to honor your own—this conversation is for you.

What if you're not actually indecisive? What if you're taking in so much information that you can't hear yourself anymore? For empaths, making a decision can mean processing far more than the decision itself. There's what you want - and then there's someone else's disappointment, your partner's opinion, your family's expectations, another reading, another podcast, another Reddit thread, another certification, and one more attempt to get absolutely certain before you move. In this episode of Your Yes Filled Life, Brenda shares how she knew as early as 2000 that teaching was no longer sustainable for her... and then spent 22 more years finding her way out. She explores what happened when she allowed other people's opinions about her career to become more valuable information than her own lived experience. You'll learn three ways to begin separating what you actually know from all the additional information you're processing: Capture what you know before you poll the room. Stop automatically treating someone else's reaction as information about your decision. Notice when “I need more information” may actually mean “I want certainty.” Brenda also shares a client story about what changed when one woman developed enough nervous-system capacity to stop organizing her choices around other people's reactions, and what Brenda is noticing among people who repeatedly seek another reading or answer even after they've already received one. Because self-trust doesn't mean knowing the right answer every time. It means trusting yourself to respond to what happens after you choose. ✨ YES TO ME happens live September 15 from 6–8 PM Pacific. Bring the decision, relationship, boundary, opportunity, change, or desire you've been circling. You don't need to arrive knowing your answer. You can come fully in the wobble.

Empaths are often deeply connected to the animals they share their lives with, these are not merely pets but beloved friends, confidantes and family members. In this episode, we explore the soul connection many empaths feel with their pets, why in many ways it can feel easier than dealing with other people and also the reality of grieving the lose of a dear friend when they cross the Rainbow Bridge. Books Mentioned in this Episode: When Elephants Weep: The Emotional Lives of Animals by Jeffrey Moussaieff Masson and Susan McCarthy Honoring Our Animals: 365 Meditations for Healing after Pet Loss By Beth Bigler The Grief Recovery Handbook by John W.

You know when your energy changes. So why is it sometimes so damn hard to do something about it? For empaths, the problem often isn't recognizing that a person, conversation, or situation is depleting us. We notice. And then we override what we noticed. In this episode of Your Yes Filled Life, Brenda explores why protecting your energy can feel much harder than simply “setting better boundaries.” She shares what happened when a client became so depleted she experienced what Brenda calls energy sickness, how to begin recognizing your own physical signals of depletion, and why hydration, protein, and energetic hygiene matter. Brenda also shares a recent conversation with her mom that uncovered an old belief hiding underneath her own difficulty with boundaries: setting a boundary could mean burning a bridge. Then there's the phone call. Brenda knew her energy was changing. The call dropped three separate times. She kept reconnecting. Shortly afterward, she went into a TikTok Live that performed at roughly 25% of what she'd become accustomed to seeing. Was the conversation responsible? There's no way to know for certain. But Brenda knew she had ignored what her body was telling her—and it raised a much bigger question: What is it costing you when you do the same? This episode will help you notice where your energy is changing, understand why protecting it can feel threatening, and take responsibility for something you actually CAN control: Who gets continued access to you. ✨ Download Brenda's free Energy Audit: https://www.brendawinkle.com/audit ✨ The Empowered Empath Collective is currently exploring intuition and learning to recognize your own internal signals: https://www.brendawinkle.com/membership ✨ Enrollment for POWER: Self-Trust for Empaths opens in September.

It wasn't the cancer that almost killed her. It was the fear. What if that's true for you too? What if the "too sensitive" label you've carried your whole life isn't a weakness at all, but the exact superpower the world needs from you right now? In this deeply moving return visit, Michael welcomes back Anita Moorjani, New York Times bestselling author of Dying to Be Me and Sensitive Is the New Strong, for a conversation that goes straight to the heart of empathy, fear, and self-love. Anita had stage four cancer and hours to live before crossing to the other side and coming back with a message that has changed millions of lives. Today she explains what she discovered there about why sensitivity gets people sick, why self-love isn't optional for empaths, and how to handle everything from online cruelty to a hostile audience member without losing your light. This isn't about fighting off illness or bracing against a cruel world. This is about understanding that fear itself, not the disease, not the diagnosis, not the person yelling at you, is the thing quietly wearing you down, and that healing starts the moment you finally learn to love yourself first. Key Topics: Why Anita says it wasn't the cancer that nearly killed her; it was living in chronic fear, anxiety, and stress that shut down her immune system and let the disease take hold. The fight-or-flight trap: why a body stuck in survival mode diverts resources away from immune function, and why living in that state 24/7 is something humans were never biologically built to sustain. Why empaths have a higher propensity toward illness, not because something is wrong with them, but because they feel everyone else's needs and pain before recognizing their own. The devastating realization Anita had on the other side: that denying herself love and making herself small was, in effect, denying source, God, or the universe the chance to express itself fully through her. Her raw, honest story of destroying a bathroom mirror in a rage after trying to say "I love myself" for the first time, and the long, gentle process of getting from self-loathing to genuine self-acceptance. The "best friend" reframe: how to talk to yourself the way you'd comfort someone you love, and how to rock your inner child the way you'd soothe a frightened four-year-old. Why the Dalai Lama once said his own book on happiness made people miserable, and how self-love can quietly become just another thing people weaponize against themselves. "Stepping into the indigo": Anita's practice for instantly returning to the pure, fearless, connected state she experienced during her near-death experience, without needing a full meditation. Why fear is a human-created construct that doesn't exist in spirit, and why some of it is useful (jumping out of the way of danger) while most of what we carry (fear of failing, fear of disappointing others) is pure conditioning. Michael's own "remember the pink shoe" story - a wild, synchronicity-filled tale of his daughter's shoe swept toward a 300-foot waterfall and miraculously recovered, as proof that you're loved and protected everywhere, all the time, not just in the moment a sign shows up. Handling cruelty and public criticism: why Anita now publicly sends love to hostile commenters rather than hiding from them, and the powerful story of calming an audience member mid-meltdown at a live event by choosing to hear her out instead of having security remove her. The people-pleasing trap: why saying yes out of obligation instead of desire actually undermines the people you're trying to please, and how learning to say a gentle no gives others the chance to show they love you regardless. Why a healthy ego isn't the enemy, it's the combination of deep empathy and deep self-love, which Anita says is exactly what the world is most starving for right now. We are all one interconnected consciousness, which means every act of self-love you choose is not selfish; it's a direct contribution to the collective energy of the planet. When you deplete yourself trying to save everyone else, you're adding to the fear. When you uplift yourself, even in small ways, you're adding to the love. Don't take life so seriously. Play. Laugh. Love yourself up like there's no tomorrow. At the end of your life, that will be the only thing that ever mattered. Join the Inspire Nation Soul Family!
Have you ever wondered if you are an empath, a highly sensitive person, or both? I'm breaking down the difference between an empath and an HSP, which stands for highly sensitive person. I explain what empathy is, what makes someone an empath, and how empaths often absorb the emotions and energy of people, groups, and places. When we do not understand this about ourselves, it can lead to overwhelm, fatigue, anxiety, depression, mood swings, and the feeling that something is wrong with us when really, we are picking up on energy that may not even belong to us. I also share common traits of empaths, including sensitivity to light, sound, crowds, other people's emotions, nature, animals, and authenticity. Then, I explain how highly sensitive people are similar to empaths, but with one key difference: HSPs may sense and feel deeply, but they do not absorb other people's emotions in the same way an empath does. Key Takeaways Empathy is the ability to feel with another person, but being an empath takes this sensitivity to another level Empaths are deeply attuned to the energy and emotions of people, groups, and places Many empaths do not realize they are absorbing emotions that are not their own Unaware empaths may experience overwhelm, fatigue, anxiety, depression, or mood instability Empaths often feel deeply connected to nature and animals Crowds, noise, bright lights, television, news, and chaotic environments can feel overwhelming to an empath's nervous system People are often naturally drawn to empaths and may share deeply personal things with them Empaths can often sense when someone is being inauthentic or hiding behind a mask Alone time, or "cave time," helps empaths recharge Self-care, nature, grounding, boundaries, and micro moments of peace are essential for empaths Highly sensitive people and empaths share many traits, but HSPs do not absorb other people's emotions in the same way You can be both an empath and a highly sensitive person MORE MICHELLE CHALFANT Website: https://www.michellechalfant.com Membership: The Adult Chair® Collective https://www.michellechalfant.com/collective Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/themichellechalfant Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheMichelleChalfant The Adult Chair® Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/theadultchair YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/Michellechalfant

Lee Harris, channeler, author, and intuitive guide, reveals that we are living through a prophesized period of unprecedented upheaval—where the dismantling of our old world runs parallel to a massive rise in human consciousness. The cyclone of world change is touching every corner of existence, and within this chaos, our soul's true work is to reclaim spiritual, human, and ecological power that has been systematically siphoned from us.From predicting the intensification of global unrest to explaining why the second half of 2026 will be "a bit more wild," Lee channels the Z's—his spirit guides—to expose the hidden dynamics at play. While geopolitical tensions, climate events, and the rise of darker energies create the backdrop of exhaustion and overwhelm, a simultaneous awakening is occurring: more people are having mystical experiences, ET encounters, and visitations from angels and departed loved ones than ever before.We explore the 800-year cycles reshaping civilization, the delicate dance between personal power and systemic control, and why the empath-narcissist dynamic is the central healing arc of our time. Lee shares his personal journey through inherited wounds, the eight areas of mastery that lead to true enlightenment, and why the real battle isn't out there—it's in the subconscious patterns we've carried since childhood, magnified now by the intensity of a world in transition.Will you use this time of dismantling to excavate the hidden blocks that have been steering your life from the shadows, or will you wait until external collapse forces your hand?___

#440 In this podcast episode, Guy talked with Colette Baron-Reid about navigating a year of emotional intensity, global uncertainty, and spiritual awakening. Colette shared how she had relied more deeply on her own spiritual practices to stay grounded while helping others move through fear, chaos, and rapid change. She explained that people were being invited to move from the head into the heart, stop waiting for certainty, and take practical "boots on the ground" action in their own lives. They also discussed oracle cards as tools for self-awareness, synchronicity, and communication with the conscious universe rather than simply predicting the future. Colette later shared her approach to the Art of Manifesting, explaining how gratitude, surrender, creativity, and emotional alignment had helped people open to the right form of what life was bringing them. ==================== Guy's Official Partners The DNA Company – Get 10% Off https://thednacompany.com/letitinpodcast FLFE – 2 Week Free Trial (No Credit Card Required) https://www.flfe.net/rp-affiliates.php?p=LiveInFlow&w=TryFLFEfree ==================== Key Points Discussed: (00:00) - The Conscious Universe, Awakening and the Art of Manifesting!

In today's episode I'm joined again by Ainslie MacLeod, a past life psychic who works with spirit guides to help people find their purpose and heal what they have carried in from other lifetimes. We talk about the shift in consciousness happening right now, why old souls are feeling the state of the world so heavily, and the pattern almost every empath will recognise: the narcissist does not create your wound, they find one that is already there and keep pressing on it.Ainslie explains why healing that fear at the past life level changes what you attract, and why fight, flight, freeze and fawn are old fears being triggered rather than proof something is wrong with you. We get into boundaries that hold once the calm settles, his course for empaths recovering from narcissistic abuse, and his new podcast Psychics Not Saints, which came out of being over the performance of spirituality. I bring it back to Human Design too: the solar plexus mutation, the deconditioning we all need around hard work, and why joy is not the reward at the end, it is the point.I trust you will get what you need from this episode, and make sure you come let me know how it resonated with you on instagram @the_human_design_coachBig love,MxxAinslie's Details:Website: soulworld.comPodcast: Psychics Not Saints, psychicsnotsaints.comBodyGraph Chart SoftwareCreate your own Human Design chart tool with BodyGraphChart!

Leading From Your CEO Self: Turning Pain Into PowerChristel introduces the Ecstatic Empath Show and teaches how empaths can lead from their “CEO self” during physical, mental, emotional, and energetic pain by breathing, coming into the present moment, and treating pain as information rather than a problem to fix. She contrasts her approach with spiritual bypassing, explains how the mind can intensify suffering through self-attack and the trauma triangle (victim, perpetrator, rescuer), and offers tools such as naming feelings (“I feel” vs. “I am”), identifying “the story I'm telling myself,” speaking or writing thoughts, and meeting physical pain with gentle breath, attention, and movement. She emphasizes staying compassionate and present with oneself and others without rescuing, practicing daily, and using challenge to fuel healing, creative expression, and a more empowered future.EMPATH RECODE: Did you know the chapter you didn't dare write yet is already written?The Empath Recode helps you stop pouring energy into the life you've outgrown and pour every ounce of life force into the life you want to be living.

You walk into a room and you know who is upset before anyone opens their mouth. You come home from a store you were only in for forty minutes and you have nothing left. Your friends bring you their pain because you are the one who can hold it, and afterward you are the one lying on the couch.If any of that sounds like your life, this conversation is for you.Lisa Campion has spent a career helping sensitive people stop drowning in what they absorb. In this episode she breaks down empath energy protection into something you can actually practice, starting today, in your car in the parking lot.We talk about what an empath really is, why the world tells sensitive kids something is wrong with them, and how the same wiring that exhausts you is the thing that makes you good at the work you were called to do.Then we go into energy vampires. The predatory ones, the victim vampires, the situational ones any of us can become when life knocks us flat. Lisa also names the part most people skip: a depleted empath who never learned to say no often becomes the biggest drain in the room.What we cover:The difference between feeling empathy and being an empath, and why the distinction changes everythingThe three fundamentals of energy hygiene: grounding, clearing, and shieldingLisa's practice before walking into a big box store, and the version you can do in a restroom in ninety secondsWhy empaths are called into hospice, teaching, nursing, and coaching, and why those fields burn them outEnergy vampires: how they hook you, why they find you, and what to do about itThe resentment inventory, a simple exercise that shows you exactly where your boundaries have failedThe empath trap: saying yes because you cannot face the other person's reactionThe first question to ask when a strong feeling hits out of nowhere: is this mine?Refilling your tank with play, creativity, nature, and source instead of pulling from other peopleAbout Lisa CampionLisa Campion is a psychic, Reiki master, and the best-selling author of The Art of Psychic Reiki, Energy Healing for Empaths, Awakening Your Psychic Abilities, and The Psychic Awakening Journal.

Episode 3050: Judith Orloff, MD explains that emotional triggers are often rooted in old fears and false beliefs rather than reality, and that healing them can help highly sensitive people and empaths stop absorbing other people's emotional pain. Through self-awareness, journaling, reframing negative beliefs, and seeking support, she offers practical ways to build emotional resilience and reclaim a stronger sense of self. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://highlysensitiverefuge.com/highly-sensitive-people-empaths-heal-emotional-triggers/ Quotes to ponder: "Your emotional triggers are wounds that need to heal. These beliefs are based on fears, and they are not reality." "Empaths and HSPs are finely tuned instruments when it comes to emotions. They feel everything, sometimes to an extreme, and are less apt to intellectualize feelings." "Healing your triggers is liberating because you won't be thrown off or drained by people's inappropriate comments."

Andrea and Master Mingtong Gu talk about why stress does not just go away because you understand it. When fear, pressure, and old survival patterns stay active too long, they settle into the body and begin to feel normal. Their conversation opens up a different path, one rooted in energy, qigong, presence, and the move from contraction into flow. If stress keeps pulling you back into the same internal state, this episode offers a way to think about healing that is less about forcing and more about changing what your body has learned to hold. ✨ Learn more about Master Mingtong Gu: https://chicenter.com/Recorded: May 11th, 2026Episode Highlights: 00:00 - Stress Lives in the Body01:04 - Meet Master Mingtong Gu02:19 - Qigong vs Tai Chi Explained04:26 - Everything Is Energy07:44 - Three Kinds of Practice08:38 - Awareness Connection Union11:21 - Body as the Gateway11:46 - Guided Meditation16:16 - Listening to Discomfort18:46 - Embrace the Discomfort25:35 - Movement as Meditation27:08 - Open Energy Gently28:13 - Spine Mobility 29:17 - Hips and Repetition30:43 - From Healing to Connection31:33 - Healing Without Fixation on Outcomes34:30 - Embodied Awakening Purpose36:27 - Intention Into Practice38:11 - Practice in the Modern World40:17 - Empaths and Energy Labels44:47 - Coming Home to Embodied Awakening Book48:08 - Self Healing Anywhere48:57 - Programs and Farewell✨ Meet Andrea in July at Omega! ✨Our event is: Radical Rest Reset --Restore Sleep, Energy & Inner BalanceWith Jillian Pransky, Andrea Kennedy, Tom Francescott, and Robert Moss.

This week we're bringing back the energy of those classic 90s magazine quizzes — but with a spiritual growth twist. I've created a five-type people pleasing quiz specifically for sensitives and empaths, because most conversations about this topic don't account for how differently these patterns show up when you can actually feel other people's emotions.People pleasing doesn't always look like people pleasing — and if you're a sensitive or an empath, it can be especially hard to spot in yourself.In this episode:The five sneaky people pleasing types that hide in plain sight — especially for empathsWhy your gift of sensitivity can make people pleasing feel like kindness instead of self-abandonmentHow to score yourself as we go — and what your total score actually meansWhy this isn't about never being flexible or never showing up for othersThe moment of recognition that changes everythingGrab something to write with and play along — you'll have your score by the end.Get Joy's Free "Sign Magnet" 3 Day Mini Course HERE https://www.joyfulmedium.com/sign-magnetJoy's Website: www.joyfulmedium.comInstagram: @JoyfulMediumTikTok: @JoyfulMediumFacebook: @JoyfulMediumFacebook Group: Joy's Soul SpaYouTube: Psychic Medium Joy Giovanni

Have you ever said yes when you meant no... Stayed quiet to avoid disappointing someone... Or put someone else's comfort ahead of your own truth? Many empaths call this kindness. But what if it's actually self-abandonment? In this episode of Your Yes-Filled Life, Brenda explores why so many empaths override their own needs, desires, and inner knowing in the name of being "nice" and how that pattern quietly erodes self-trust. You'll discover: ✨ Why self-abandonment often gets mistaken for kindness ✨ The hidden belief that keeps empaths prioritizing everyone else ✨ Why people stop trusting your yes when you don't tell the truth ✨ How self-abandonment impacts relationships ✨ The surprising cost of becoming a chameleon ✨ Why discomfort is not the same thing as danger ✨ A powerful reframe from participants inside POWER: Self-Trust for Empaths ✨ Reflection questions to help you identify where this pattern may be showing up in your own life Reflection Questions When do you call something kindness that actually feels like obligation? Where are you saying yes because you're afraid of disappointing someone? Where are you hoping someone will notice a sacrifice you've never discussed? Can someone be disappointed and you still be kind? Can someone disagree and you still be kind? What would change if honesty became part of your definition of kindness? Resources Mentioned
The On-Call Empath – Episode: When Empaths Turn Dark: The Rise of the Dark EmpathIn this episode of The On-Call Empath, host Raj Montage explores a disturbing question: can a deeply caring empath turn dark?We look at how unresolved trauma, emotional burnout, and the pressures of a fractured world can shift even the most compassionate people. When pain goes unhealed, empathy can become distorted—no longer used for connection, but for control.Raj breaks down how some empaths begin to weaponize emotional awareness, using insight into others' feelings to manipulate, protect themselves, or even cause harm.

Astrology for Empaths
Are you an empath? Intuitive? Have people described you as highly sensitive (HSP)—and you've wondered why you seem to absorb other people's emotions (or even physical symptoms)? In this episode of Unpacking Possibility, psychologist Traci Stein breaks down what it really means to be an empath and an intuitive empath, how empathy differs from sympathy, and why high-empathy people can feel grounded one moment…and totally depleted the next.This episode is for you if you've ever left a conversation feeling overly “full,” anxious, or exhausted. And you'll know it's for you if people tell you, “I feel so much better after talking to you,” but you feel like you need to detox or take a nap afterward.In this episode, you'll learn:- Signs you may be an empath or intuitive empath - Why empathy can feel like both a gift and overwhelming without the right self-care- A simple, powerful question to help you reset: “Is this mine—or someone else's?”- How empath overload can show up as fatigue, anxiety, irritability, resentment, or physical symptoms- Grounding practices that help: boundaries, movement, guided imagery/meditation, and time in nature- Why even 10 minutes outside, done consistently, can make a differenceMentioned in this episode:Developing Everyday Intuition Coursehttps://www.drtracistein.com/developing-everyday-intuition-courseUse promo code ENERGY5OFF for $5 off.Meditations for Letting Go of Unhealthy Relationships: https://tracistein.com/products/mp3-releasing-unhealthy-patterns-situations-emotional-cords-formerly-letting-go-of-unhealthy-relationshipsStudy: Time Spent in Nature Leads to Significant Physical and Mental Health Benefits…https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11851813/
Have you ever noticed that when life gets overwhelming, you start second-guessing yourself more? Maybe your boundaries get softer. Maybe you start people-pleasing again. Maybe old habits and patterns you thought you'd healed suddenly resurface. What if nothing has gone wrong? In this episode, Brenda explores why self-trust becomes harder during periods of stress, emotional overload, burnout, grief, and depletion—and why returning to yourself is a practice, not a destination. You'll learn: Why exhausted nervous systems return to familiar patterns How stress impacts discernment and decision-making The connection between self-trust and nervous system capacity Why awareness alone isn't enough The difference between regulation and emotional suppression How to stop judging yourself when old patterns resurface Practical ways to support yourself when life feels overwhelming Why identity shifts often feel messy before they feel aligned Key Takeaway The goal isn't perfection. The goal is learning how to return to yourself faster—with more compassion, more awareness, and more support.

In this episode, we explore the journey of being an energetically sensitive empath and how to navigate the increasing intensity and awareness that come with spiritual evolution. Instead of trying to "turn off" our empathic abilities, we dive into the importance of processing empathic experiences differently—shifting from trying to fix others to holding a safe space and meeting our own needs internally. What You'll Learn:- Why spiritual evolution naturally increases sensitivity and empathy.- The shift from fixing others to holding a safe, neutral space.- Why processing other people's energy can slow both your evolution and theirs.- How to meet your needs internally instead of seeking external validation.- A simple energetic mantra for releasing energy that doesn't belong to you.This is a segment from Aleya's coaching sessions.

In this episode of Open Channel, I'm talking about something that completely changed the way I approach spiritual work, healing, relationships, and even motherhood:the difference between holding space and carrying someone else's energy.For a long time, I thought being a good psychic, healer, mentor, or even just a “good person” meant taking everything on emotionally. I absorbed people's grief, fear, trauma, overwhelm, and pain because I genuinely cared. But eventually my body started telling me something had to change.In this episode, I talk about:• empathy vs over-identification • why so many intuitives and caregivers burn out • how overfunctioning can actually disempower others • the importance of energetic boundaries • what true healing actually looks like • practical ways to disconnect and regulate after heavy conversations or spiritual work • why compassion does not require self-abandonmentThis conversation is for empaths, healers, parents, helpers, spiritual practitioners, and anyone who feels responsible for everyone around them.You do not have to carry the weight of the world to be loving.You do not have to disappear to help others heal.Connect with me on Instagram:@kate.the.braveExplore mentorship, readings, community spaces, and more through the links on my Instagram.

Send us Fan MailIn this episode, I share my personal perspective after more than 35 years of working with Tarot, exploring how intuition, energy, and intention shape every reading. Tarot isn't about being told what to do or predicting a fixed future - it's a tool that helps shift perspective, move energy, and bring awareness to what may be ready to be seen.I talk about the difference between a connected reading and a “cold read,” what it means to be a conduit for Spirit, and why your own energy plays such an important role when working with the cards.I also explore why no two readers interpret Tarot the same way and why that's part of its magic.This is an honest, grounded conversation about trusting your intuition, deepening your spiritual connection, and allowing Tarot to support you in your own unique way.Take what resonates… and keep the rest in your pocket for later.
Anita Moorjani did everything right. She ate organic, avoided sugar, studied cancer prevention obsessively. She still got lymphoma. That contradiction is the entire point. Growing up as an Indian woman in Hong Kong, caught between British culture and a community that valued sons over daughters, Anita learned one thing above all else: make yourself small and keep everyone happy. That lesson followed her for 40 years, through a canceled arranged marriage, a cancer diagnosis, and a four-year deterioration that ended with her in a coma, 85 pounds, and organs failing. Then she left her body. In that expanded state, she saw clearly for the first time: it wasn't the cancer that had been killing her. It was the fear. When she came back, every trace of cancer was gone within three weeks. Doctors flew in from the US just to study her case. None of them could explain it. What Anita brought back is a message she's been sharing for 20 years: you don't need to earn your place in the world, you already are what you've been spending your life trying to become.

This guided mindfulness practice guides you through a full body scan rooted entirely in physical sensation; not thoughts, not emotions, just the raw felt experience of being in your own body. For empaths, this practice is foundational: when you can locate your own sensation with presence, you develop the capacity to know what is yours and what you have absorbed from someone else. This is how the ecstatic empath stays rooted, clear, and open to receive.Part of the Ecstatic Empath series. Visit ecstaticempath.com. Your body is speaking to you in every moment through sensation, pressure, temperature, aliveness, ease, but most empaths are busy tracking everyone else's experience and not fully landing in their own.

Do you ever feel completely fine until you spend time with certain people and then suddenly feel drained, overwhelmed, or emotionally heavy?Many empaths and sensitive people experience emotional exhaustion after interactions because they unconsciously absorb others' emotional energy.Being empathic is a form of emotional and intuitive awareness. But without understanding how your energy works, you risk burnout, overwhelm, and compassion fatigue.In this video, I explain: • Why empaths often feel drained around certain people • How emotional energy influences sensitive individuals • The difference between empathy and absorbing energy • How to stay connected to yourself while interacting with othersLearning how to work with your sensitivity can transform it from something that drains you into a powerful form of intuitive awareness.If you're ready to understand your intuitive and empathic nature more deeply, I created a free course to help you begin developing your intuition and working with your energy in a grounded way.Access the free course here:https://wendyderosa.com/how-to-develop-your-intuition-2025/Ready to train with me and learn how to develop your intuition and clear your blocks?

You've felt it. Someone leaves the room and you feel weirdly exhausted. Or you ignored a gut feeling and paid for it later. This episode names what's actually happening, and gives you a practical system to deal with it. Episode Overview If you've ever left a conversation feeling like something was stolen from you, or spent years second-guessing whether your instincts were real or just anxiety in a costume, Lisa Campion is here to hand you a very grounded toolkit.Lisa is a Reiki master teacher, psychic counselor, author, and podcast host with over 30 years of experience working with empaths, healers, and people who are psychically open but have no idea what to do about it. She doesn't ask you to believe anything. She just shows you how the operating system works.In this conversation, Will and Karen sit down with Lisa to unpack energy vampires, psychic self-defense, and one of the most useful distinctions in modern spirituality; the difference between your intuition and your anxiety. Turns out, one of them has been running the show, and it probably isn't the one you'd want.What You'll Take AwayEnergy vampires are real, and most of them don't know they're doing it. Lisa breaks down the two distinct types, including the one that's far more common than the predatory kind, and explains why highly sensitive people are disproportionately in their orbit.There's a name for what you've been experiencing. If you absorb other people's moods, pain, or anxiety as if they were your own, Lisa explains what that actually is, why it happens, and why it can be a profound gift once you learn to manage it.Psychic self-defense isn't a Marvel movie concept. Lisa maps out a practical framework for protecting your energy, including what she calls "spiritual kung fu" for empaths who keep saying yes when they mean no.Intuition and anxiety feel almost identical. but only one of them is telling the truth. Lisa explains the neurological reason for this, and gives you a simple test to tell the difference before you override the right signal again.You're more psychic than you think. Lisa shares a specific, low-effort journaling practice that will show you, within weeks, just how often your intuition has been accurate while you weren't paying attention.The "army of healers" concept. This isn't motivational-poster talk.

Kelsey shares how her grandmother continues to guide her through dreams, and how stepping into spiritual gifts can bring up the most common block for empaths: lack of confidence and the fear of “am I making this up?” Julie shows how confidence is built through training, practice, and learning to read energy without absorbing it.
