Podcasts about highly sensitive people

Why do HSPs feel like they're fighting an uphill battle in a world that's lost its conscientiousness? After working with HSPs for nearly two decades, I've learned we're the people who value conscientiousness in society - that's our gift, not a weakness. Through therapy and self-awareness, sensitivity transforms from burden into extraordinary beauty. The sunrise that makes you cry with joy, the stranger's child who warms your heart - these experiences are available to every HSP who learns effective coping strategies.

If you crave authentic connections with other highly sensitive women, listen to this episode of the Awaken Your Wise Woman podcast as host Elizabeth Cush talks about building and sustaining a supportive community.   “It's amazing to me that the space can hold women who have never met before, and they come away from it feeling as if deep connections were made.” — Biz Cush Few things in life feel as wonderful as connecting with someone who really gets you. It can feel comforting, validating and exhilarating all at once. But for highly sensitive women, it can be difficult to find those people who understand us and cherish our gifts of sensitivity. In this episode of the Awaken Your Wise Woman podcast, host Biz Cush, LCPC, a licensed professional therapist, founder of Progression Counseling in Maryland and Delaware, and a soul support for highly sensitive women, talks about making those connections and building a community of like-minded women—and how you can be a part of it.

The moment someone tells you "you're just too sensitive," a little piece of you might shrink inside. That dismissal of your experience happens far too often for the 15-20% of us who identify as highly sensitive people. But what if your sensitivity isn't a weakness to overcome but an important aspect of who you are—one that deserves understanding, especially when chronic pain enters the picture?Sensitivity creates a unique relationship with pain. Your heightened awareness of both internal and external stimuli means your nervous system processes the world differently. Like a smoke alarm with the sensitivity dialed up, your brain might trigger pain signals more readily than others. This doesn't make your pain any less real; it simply means your path to healing might look different too.Throughout this episode, we share personal stories about navigating life as sensitive people (our whole household qualifies—except perhaps our fearless cat, Hermione!). Tanner opens up about his experiences from childhood through adulthood, from feeling overwhelmed in locker room roughhousing to managing financial stress differently. These aren't stories of weakness but illustrations of how differently our nervous systems can be wired.The good news? Understanding this connection unlocks powerful healing possibilities. Rather than fighting against your sensitivity, we explore how embracing it while developing regulation skills creates lasting relief. Through embodiment practices, safety signals (like breathwork and movement), and gradual exposure to overwhelming stimuli, you can teach your brain new patterns while honoring your sensitive nature.Your sensitivity likely gives you gifts others don't share: deeper empathy, creativity, meaningful connections, and an appreciation for beauty's subtleties. As you listen to this episode, we hope you'll begin to see your sensitivity not as something to overcome, but as an essential part of you that—when properly understood—might be your greatest strength in overcoming chronic pain and creating the life you truly desire.Tanner Murtagh and Anne Hampson are therapists who treat neuroplastic pain and mind-body symptoms. They are also married! In his 20s, Tanner overcame chronic pain and a fibromyalgia diagnosis by learning his symptoms were occurring due to learned brain pathways and nervous system dysregulation. Post-healing, Tanner and Anne have dedicated their lives to developing effective treatment and education for neuroplastic pain and symptoms. Listen and learn how to assess your own chronic pain and symptoms, gain tools to retrain the brain and nervous system, and make gradual changes in your life and health!

This podcast is produced by Alex Klassen, who is one of the wonderful therapists at our agency in Calgary, Alberta. https://www.painpsychotherapy.ca/ Tanner, Anne, and Alex also run the MBody Community, which is an in-depth online course that provides step-by-step guidance for assessing, treating, and resolving mind-body pain and symptoms. https://www.mbodycommunity.com Also check out Tanner's YouTube channel for more free education and practices: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC-Fl6WaFHnh4ponuexaMbFQ And follow us for daily education posts on Instagram: @painpsychotherapy Discl...

Have you fallen out of touch with the Earth? Listen in on this episode of Awaken Your Wise Woman, as host Elizabeth Cush welcomes Corinna Wood, a visionary teacher of women's wisdom and a trailblazer in the holistic healing community, for a talk about sensitive, women-centered tools for inner growth and healing. “Grounding into our needs is such a rooted way of being, and I think it is really important, especially today, and especially with highly sensitive women.” — Corinna Wood We live inside. We work inside. We spend our time on computers, phones and other devices. All that may seem to be convenient and comfortable, but it can also serve to cut us off from the natural world—and an important source of women's wisdom. In this episode of Awaken Your Wise Woman, host Elizabeth “Biz” Cush, LCPC, a licensed professional therapist, founder of Progression Counseling in Maryland and Delaware, and a mid-life women's coach, welcomes Corrina Wood, founder of Red Moon Herbs and the Southeast Wise Women Herbal Conference. They talk about her Wise Woman Needs Wheel, a tool that maps human needs to natural cycles, how it can help inner growth and healing, and why it may be a particularly useful framework for highly sensitive persons.

Meet Jole Berlage-Buccellati, a holistic coach who works with highly sensitive people. She helps these individuals build self-worth and become effective leaders and business people in a world that is not built for people like them. Jole says that 20% of the global population is a highly sensitive person and that despite our world that rewards loudness and narcissism, sensitive people still have great gifts to give to the world. She speaks about her work building her theories about sensitivity and how it brought her an understanding of herself and many of her clients. It has been work she has done to help people focus their empathy and caring for others in a way that is effective and helpful. Listen to her thoughts about the strengths of being a highly sensitive person, how more sensitive people in leadership can benefit the world, and how a sensitive person can take care of themselves in this week's episode!Key Takeaways:Our world says it's okay to be a sensitive person as long as you're a woman who is not in business or an artist of some sort. If not, the world punishes you for being a person who cares for the world deeply.Many highly sensitive people have been bullied at some point, but especially at school. This harms their self-worth and makes them feel as if no one understands them.Being highly sensitive can be a very complex experience and building community around people like them is one way they can help make themselves feel less alienated.Jole is writing a book about highly sensitive people and why they're so important in our current political climate globally.Finding your voice is important in order to make sure you can be heard. Many highly sensitive people are overwhelmed or introverted (or both!) but that is something they need to work through in order to be more effective.Use your ability to notice others' feelings and mental states to know when someone needs to take a time out, or a break, in order for their feelings to not overwhelm yours.Jole's links:WebsiteInstagramPodcast

If you're a highly sensitive person going through a hard time, this might be the episode for you. Welcome to episode 300 of SelfKind - a podcast for Highly Sensitive People who are navigating what it means to be sensitive in a world that doesn't always feel like it's made for them.In this milestone 300th episode, I'm reflecting on the past year, which has been the hardest of my life. There is one thing in particular that's helped me keep my head above water as a Highly Sensitive Person and that's what I'm going to share with you. It's a foundational tool every HSP needs to know. What is that one thing? Self-compassion. Why do we need it? Because being human means to go through challenges. And sometimes those challenges can feel like they come thick and fast from the shadows. Being on your own side through those challenges is life-changing. In this episode you'll hear why self-compassion and being on your own side is so important as a highly sensitive person and I also share with you a practical strategy for bringing more of this tool into your own life.

What can you do if your family relationships are toxic? Listen in on this episode of Awaken Your Wise Woman, as host Elizabeth Cush welcomes psychotherapist Sharon Martin for a discussion on sensitive women cutting family ties so you can heal. “Being angry is very both natural and helpful in a situation. When you have been mistreated, you should feel angry about that.” — Sharon Martin Highly sensitive persons can have a hard time letting go of harmful relationships.

On episode 320, Sabrina shares about the Saturn - North Node in Pisces conjunction and how sensitive people learn to shut down or defend themselves from their own sensitivities, which, when met/cultivated/supported instead, relate to our deeper spiritual gifts or capacities as lovers.

Are Social Cliques Secretly Draining Your Energy? Here's How to Find Inner Freedom

Healing from narcissistic abuse involves recognizing and stopping harmful patterns like self-blame, excessive politeness, emotional avoidance, and denial. Highly Sensitive People often sabotage their recovery by prioritizing others' comfort, minimizing the abuse, or ignoring their gut instincts. To truly heal, it's essential to name abuse clearly, trust intuition, establish healthy boundaries, and choose authenticity over appearances.

Highly sensitive women may feel childhood wounds deeply. In this episode of the Awaken Your Wise Woman podcast, host Elizabeth Cush talks about how your parts help protect you and how you can heal. “We're learning to build a compassionate, kind loving relationship with ourself. Through that process, all parts of us learn to trust us.” — Biz Cush Not all childhood wounds are physical. If we didn't get our emotional needs met when we were young, we can carry those hurts with us well into adulthood. We can feel the impact of those childhood traumas on both our physical and mental health, in turn affecting how we show up in the world. In this episode of the Awaken Your Wise Woman podcast, host Biz Cush, LCPC, a licensed professional therapist, founder of Progression Counseling in Maryland and Delaware, and a life coach for highly sensitive women, talks about adverse childhood experiences like childhood emotional neglect, the mechanisms we develop to cope with them and how they show up in our “parts.” She'll also share how Internal Family Systems (IFS) work—getting to know our parts and approaching them with curiosity and compassion when they are triggered—can help us build a kind, caring relationship with ourselves that meets the needs of our bodies and our emotions, helps heal those old wounds, and empowers us to show up in the world from a more grounded place. You can find all the resources mentioned and the full show notes here.  April 2025 Meet-up for Highly Sensitive Women.

Chances are, you're not short of knowledge as a Highly Sensitive Person. You know all about some of the things that could support you to feel better. But sometimes? It's easier to think about them than it is to *do* them!As a Highly Sensitive Person, this makes a lot of sense. Depth of processing is your jam. But when thinking becomes a proxy for doing, you risk missing out on the full benefits of your self-care practices. Join me, Erica Webb, for this episode of SelfKind - a Podcast for Highly Sensitive People. In this episode I'm talking about the challenges faced by highly sensitive people in transitioning from knowledge to action, particularly in the realm of self-care. You'll hear: - some of the emotional and cognitive barriers that might prevent you from implementing self-care practices- why cognitive knowing is not enough and how somatic, felt experiences can make all the difference- practical strategies for translating knowledge into action.'Mentioned in this episode: 

It wasn't so long ago that Georgie learned there was a name for the way she felt ... being a Highly Sensitive Person. Maybe you've been there too? Discovering, for the first time, that there are words and experiences that are shared by others who also have this trait. That you're not actually 'too much' or 'too sensitive', but that you are a part of that minority percentage of the population who are more sensitive. Georgie found that discovery to be pivotal. And one of the biggest shifts ? An enhanced capacity to meet herself with compassion. Join me, Erica Webb, host of SelfKind, as I chat with Georgie Druckmann - doula, mother and highly sensitive person - about the impact of putting words to her high sensitivity and what we can all learn through her work as a post-partum doula.We talk about compassion, the importance of community care, and how, as Highly Sensitive People, we can navigate asking for and receiving support.About Georgie Druckmann:Georgia is a mum and postpartum (and previous) birth doula,  living in Naarm/Melbourne. With her relatively recent discovery of being a HSP, many  pieces of how she moves and feels in the world now make so much more sense and she can see how being HSP has made things harder at times but has also been her super power in how she nurtures others through being a doula, mother, partner and friend.Connect with Georgie:https://www.instagram.com/nurture.mummaAbout your host, Erica Webb:Erica Webb is a registered counsellor, somatic exercise coach and highly sensitive person.

Katie opens up about childhood trauma, her years of self-medication, and the "cognitive dissonance" she experienced while studying health while still drinking. She explains how sobriety helped her discover her true purpose: guiding highly sensitive, empathic women through their own sober curious journeys.
