Podcasts about Sensitivity

You are already a channel. The question is: how is your transmission showing up, and are you being cared for so it can flow? In this episode Mellissa unpacks what it means to be a transmitter (and a double transmitter), why your gift can feel invisible in modern culture, and how a transmitter's sensitive emanation actually benefits whole communities when it's nurtured.  If you've ever felt like people want to “sit next to you” and soak up your vibe without understanding your value, this one's for you. Mellissa offers practical, tender reframing (and a little business-savvy advice) for how transmitters can create their own “temple”: a life + practice that feeds them so their signal stays clear.   You'll leave reminded that: ✨ Your transmission is real even if it's not easily measured. ✨ Sensitivity is part of the tool, not a flaw. ✨ You can design a system that both protects your energy and allows you to be resourced for the work you do. If this episode landed: share it with another sensitive transmitter, and consider leaving a review, it helps the right people find these teachings.   More Resources:

I speak about the challenges of setting prices for B2C and B2B customers. I share why B2C is more price-sensitive and talk about Podsqueeze's shift to bigger B2B clients. I give examples from other SaaS companies—how some only show enterprise pricing and others adjust based on value or usage. I talk about Podsqueeze's new pricing strategy for enterprise clients and my lessons from past mistakes.

Welcome to the Health Marketing Collective, where strong leadership meets marketing excellence.On today's episode, Sara Payne sits down with Emily Hansen, Senior Director of the Resensation program at Axogen, to discuss how healthcare brands can leverage thought leadership to reshape public perceptions, influence behavior change, and ultimately become architects of a health revolution.As a specialist in advocacy and education, Emily champions awareness about a lesser-known but highly prevalent outcome of breast cancer surgery: chronic numbness following a mastectomy. Through her work at Axogen, she's spearheading a movement to empower breast cancer patients and their care teams with knowledge and solutions that can dramatically enhance quality of life beyond survival—focusing on nerve repair and the pioneering Resensation procedure.In this thought-provoking conversation, Sara and Emily explore the intersection of marketing, education, and advocacy. They dive into the challenges of raising awareness about health issues shrouded by misconceptions, the vital role of patient advocates, and how moving beyond short-term wins toward long-term health movements is key to redefining standards of care. You'll hear about real strategies for engaging the survivor community, addressing clinician knowledge gaps, and the ongoing effort to translate awareness into tangible business and health outcomes.Thank you for being part of the Health Marketing Collective, where strong leadership meets marketing excellence. The future of healthcare depends on it.Key Takeaways:Marketing as a Catalyst for Health Movements:Emily illustrates how powerful marketing can spark a health movement—even for issues that have been historically overlooked. By focusing efforts on educating both patients and clinicians about post-mastectomy numbness and offering actionable solutions, the Resensation program exemplifies marketing's role in not just awareness, but wholesale perception change within healthcare.Stakeholder-Centric Communication:Reaching both patients and providers requires tailored messaging and a multi-pronged approach. Emily explains that effective campaigns must bridge awareness gaps in diverse audiences, from general consumers and advocacy groups to the full spectrum of clinicians. The Resensation team balances highly technical provider information with relatable patient stories to ensure relevance and clarity across all touchpoints.The Power (and Sensitivity) of Patient Advocacy:Patient advocates are not mere influencers; they are individuals with lived experiences and deep personal investment. Emily shares how collaborating authentically with survivor communities—such as The Breasties—can accelerate education and trust. She emphasizes the importance of letting advocates' voices lead and prioritizing the issue above the brand to build an enduring movement.Long-Term Commitment Over Short-Term Wins:Creating lasting change in public and professional awareness isn't achieved through one-off major media hits. Instead, it demands continuous investment, evolving narratives, and relationship-building across years. Emily underscores that consistent, layered outreach (PR, education, advocacy partnerships, and digital content) is essential for sustaining momentum and meeting both patient and business objectives.Measuring Impact: Business and Behavioral Outcomes:The Resensation campaign's success isn't just marked by media impressions, but by tangible growth in web traffic, patient referrals, and most compellingly, provider demand for training. Emily discusses the importance of presenting both quantitative metrics and qualitative anecdotes to executive leaders as evidence of progress, and how adapting data models helps demonstrate true business value over time.For more information about the Resensation program, including educational resources and a...

When ADHD Wants Adventure and Autism Just Wants a Nap Patricia (she/her) explores what it means to show up authentically as a neurodivergent person—especially when navigating the tension between wanting novelty (hello ADHD/AuDHD brains!) and craving sameness (thank you autism). She shares candid stories about celebrating her anniversary, managing low energy, social interactions, and dealing with conflict. Patricia also opens up about balancing autistic traits, ADHD novelty-seeking, PDA (persistent drive for autonomy), and honoring her sensitivity. If you're autistic, ADHD, AuDHD, or otherwise neurodivergent, this episode offers relatable honesty, self-compassion, and a reminder that sensitivity is nothing to apologize for. WHAT YOU'LL HEAR IN THIS EPISODE ·      Why showing up authentically—even when low energy or struggling—creates safety and deeper connection. ·      The push-pull between ADHD's love of novelty and autism's need for sameness. ·      A vulnerable look at performance pressure, PDA (persistent drive for autonomy), and the tension of “supposed to” versus authentic presence. ·      Reflections on navigating conflict, rejection, and the looping thoughts that come with OCD and sensitivity. ·      Stories of how small moments of authenticity (complimenting a server, connecting with strangers, sharing vulnerability) can bring ease and humor. ·      The joys of volunteering with puppies, finding novelty in animals, and noticing the small things that bring comfort. ·      Honest sharing about energy struggles, self-judgment, and learning to honor your body's signals. KEY TAKEAWAYS ·       You don't have to perform or mask to be worthy of connection. ·       Novelty and sameness can co-exist—it's about experimenting and noticing what feels supportive. ·       Authenticity often comes in small, ordinary moments that bring relief and connection. ·       Conflict and rejection are painful, but self-trust and curiosity can soften the edges. ·       Sensitivity is not something to apologize for—it's a way of being in the world. SOUND BITES "Show up as you are." "I felt very inadequate." "I really resist it." SENSITIVITY IS NOTHING TO APOLOGIZE FOR; IT'S HOW YOUR BRAIN IS WIRED You are not broken. You were shaped by systems that weren't built for you. You deserve rest, joy, and support exactly as you are. TOPICS COVERED (please adjust for addition of introduction) 00:00 Embracing Authenticity 09:12 Navigating Social Expectations 17:54 Finding Balance in Emotions PODCAST HOST Patricia Young (she/her) was a Licensed Clinical Social Worker for over 17 years, but she is now exclusively providing coaching. She knows what it's like to feel like an outcast, misfit, and truthteller.  Learning about the trait of being a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP), then learning she is AuDHD with a PDA profile, OCD and RSD, helped Patricia rewrite her history with a deeper understanding, appreciation, and a sense of self-compassion.  She created the podcasts Unapologetically Sensitive and Unapologetically AuDHD to help other neurodivergent folks know that they aren't alone, and that having a brain that is wired differently comes with amazing gifts, and some challenges.  Patricia works online globally working individually with people, and she teaches Online Courses for neurodivergent folks that focus on understanding what it means to be a sensitive neurodivergent. Topics covered include: self-care, self-compassion, boundaries, perfectionism, mindfulness, communication, and creating a lifestyle that honors you Patricia's website, podcast episodes and more: www.unapologeticallysensitive.com LINKS   To write a review in itunes: click on this link https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/unapologetically-sensitive/id1440433481?mt=2 select “listen on Apple Podcasts” chose “open in itunes” choose “ratings and reviews” click to rate the number of starts click “write a review” Website--www.unapologeticallysensitive.com Facebook-- https://www.facebook.com/Unapologetically-Sensitive-2296688923985657/ Closed/Private Facebook group Unapologetically Sensitive-- https://www.facebook.com/groups/2099705880047619/ Instagram-- https://www.instagram.com/unapologeticallysensitive/ Youtube-- https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCOE6fodj7RBdO3Iw0NrAllg/videos?view_as=subscriber Tik Tok--https://www.tiktok.com/@unapologeticallysensitiv Unapologetically AuDHD Podcast-- https://unapologeticallysensitive.com/unapologeticallyaudhd/ e-mail-- unapologeticallysensitive@gmail.com Show hashtag--#unapologeticallysensitive Music-- Gravel Dance by Andy Robinson www.andyrobinson.com

Tooth sensitivity often signals deeper dental problems like enamel erosion, gum recession, or hidden decay Everyday habits such as drinking acidic beverages, brushing too hard, or using harsh whitening products strip away your teeth's natural protection and expose nerves Natural alternatives like zinc, black seed oil, and coconut oil soothe pain, reduce gum inflammation, and strengthen oral tissues without relying on fluoride Some remedies, like clove oil or saltwater rinses, offer short-term relief, while others, such as apple cider vinegar, make sensitivity worse Protecting enamel with gentle brushing, staying hydrated, breaking harmful habits, and seeking care from a mercury-free biological dentist help stop pain at its root

Margo is joined by Anna Holzman, a therapist-turned-coach who helps sensitive creatives and entrepreneurs move through the fear of visibility and launch the work that feels most true to them. After 15 years in TV and publishing—and many false starts on her own creative dreams—burnout and chronic pain led Anna to discover nervous system tools that helped her unblock her voice and show up for the work she loves. Now she helps others melt through imposter syndrome, bring their creative visions to life, and share them boldly. She also hosts the podcast How to Trust Yourself. Margo and Anna discuss: What's happening in your nervous system when you want to launch something but feel stuck How to dialogue with fear instead of fighting it Why squashing fear often backfires The importance of social support and safety when showing up visibly Why sensitive voices are needed in today's noisy world The perniciousness of comparison among creatives Graded exposure therapy Imposter syndrome, perfectionism, and creative blocks Understanding customer's perspectives Connect with Anna: www.annaholtzman.com https://www.instagram.com/anna_holtzman/ How to Trust Yourself podcast: https://pod.link/1679033028 Connect with Margo: www.windowsillchats.com www.instagram.com/windowsillchats www.patreon.com/inthewindowsill https://www.yourtantaustudio.com/thefoundry

In this episode of the Homeopathy 247 Podcast, host Mary welcomes back Gitanjali Goel to share her insights on one of her favourite remedies: Phosphorus. Together, they explore the unique personality traits, emotional patterns, and physical symptoms connected to this remedy, showing how it can bring balance and resilience to people who feel deeply and give generously. The Personality of Phosphorus Phosphorus is often described as radiant, sensitive, and magnetic—like a candle glowing in a dark room. People who match this remedy type are warm, open-hearted, and love connecting with others. They are often the life of the party, quick to form bonds, and carry an effortless charisma. However, this openness comes with a fragility. Phosphorus types are like emotional sponges, absorbing the moods and energies around them. While this makes them empathetic and caring, it can also leave them drained, anxious, or overwhelmed. Emotional Sensitivity and Fear A hallmark of Phosphorus is fear and anxiety, often centred around illness or impending doom. Unlike other remedy types, reassurance doesn't easily calm them. Even normal test results may not stop their worry. This emotional intensity often spills into physical symptoms, showing how deeply mind and body are connected. Phosphorus people crave connection and reassurance but can also become clingy or restless when left alone. Their need for love and closeness is powerful, yet it can make them vulnerable to overstimulation or emotional burnout. Diffusion and Lack of Boundaries Gitanjali explains that Phosphorus often lacks boundaries, both emotionally and physically. Their energy tends to “diffuse,” spreading outwards in ways they can't control. For example, emotional stress may lead to palpitations, digestive problems, or even a sudden loss of voice. This tendency highlights why homoeopathy doesn't just treat physical symptoms in isolation but looks deeper into the emotional triggers and overall personality picture of the person. Physical Symptoms of Phosphorus Alongside emotional fragility, Phosphorus is well known for physical characteristics, such as: Bleeding tendencies – bright red, spontaneous bleeding (nosebleeds, gum bleeding, heavy bleeding after surgery). Respiratory issues – asthma, coughs, and chest tightness, often triggered by fear or anxiety. Sensitivity to weather – fear of thunderstorms and loud noises, which can cause migraines, diarrhea, or breathlessness. Digestive symptoms – cravings for ice-cold drinks that can lead to vomiting. These traits make phosphorus a versatile and powerful homeopathic remedy. Phosphorus in Daily Life and Animals The remedy is not only valuable for people but also for pets. For example, dogs who panic during thunderstorms or fireworks may find relief with Phosphorus. Its fast-acting nature makes it especially useful in acute situations where fear overwhelms both mind and body. Healing Through Phosphorus Healing with Phosphorus is about more than relieving symptoms. It is about helping individuals restore boundaries, contain their energy, and shine brightly without burning out. With the right support and remedy, people often feel held, safe, and able to regain their natural vitality. As Mary and Gitanjali reflect, Phosphorus teaches us the beauty—and the risk—of openness. It reminds us of the deep link between emotions and physical health, and why both must be understood in order to truly heal.

(Episode #293) What if the signals from your body are not random discomforts, but invitations to deeper alignment? In this client session, we explore the connection between her spiritual expansion and the subtle ways her body has been asking for attention. Together we look at how changes like weight gain or skin reactions may actually be her higher self calling for care, expression, and presence.

Welcome back to Blended!   Today, we're talking about menopause.     Women's health issues, from menstruation to menopause, have long been overlooked in workplaces, schools, even families. But, increasingly, those issues are coming to the fore. Women are finding their voices and speaking up about the things that impact them every single day. And finally people are paying attention.   Menopause has been hitting the headlines. Many organizations are starting to look more closely at the impact of menopause in the workplace, and what it really looks like to be a more supportive, inclusive employer.    But where do they start? Awareness, policies and procedures, workplace accommodations, health and wellbeing – there's a lot to consider.   Our guests will be shining a light on it today. They'll be exploring what menopause is and what it can look like for women, the stigma and negative connotations attached to menopause, and how organizations can better support women in the workplace.       IN THIS EPISODE:   [01.15] Introductions to our Blended panelists.   ·       Karin – CEO at NIRAKIO ·       Nadine – Creative Director and Founder of Mayana ·       Claudia – Retired Global Supply Chain Executive, DEI Champion and Community Activist   [07.08] The group discuss what menopause is, the common symptoms, and what it's really like for women as they navigate this transition.   “One billion women will be in menopause at this time. So it's a very lucrative opportunity, and it's also a very predatory environment.” Nadine    “It's a natural stage of life that most women experience between the ages of 44 and 55. And, given that women represent 40% of the workforce today – and growing! – its impact on the workplace is a really critical topic.” Claudia   ·       Stages of menopause (peri-menopause, post-menopause) ·       Psychological symptoms o   Mood changes o   Anxiety o   Lowered confidence o   Second-guessing o    Feeling a loss of control o   Rage o   Loss of patience ·       Physical symptoms o   Hot flashes o   Night sweats o   Joint pain o   Weight gain o   Sexual impact o   Lack of sleep ·       Cognitive symptoms o   Brian fog o   Inability to concentrate ·       Claudia's positive experience of training, awareness and education at IBM ·       Understanding the impact on women in the workplace ·       Identifying symptoms ·       Encouraging women to ask for help/speak up ·       Link to aging ·       Cultural differences in symptoms ·       How menopause impacts women's tolerance level for things they've been socially conditioned to quietly accept   ·       Empathy ·       Vulnerability ·       Public display of private health ·       Uncomfortable ·       Weaponization/reclaim of language   “It's a stage of life that's typically experienced in the latter stages, so it identifies as aging. I identified as getting older. So did that diminish my value to the organization, did they think I could still lead innovation when, suddenly, I'm an older member of the team?” Karin “Black women are the last to get diagnosed, they're the last to get help. And that's where we're seeing these big disparities. The menopause space was predominantly white-facing, and there was not a lot of information for racialized people, so the goal for us is to have that conversation. Because when we're serving everyone, everyone benefits.” Nadine “I started making jokes that I wasn't having hot flashes – I was having power surges! But, in making those jokes, it opened the floor to discussion.” Karin “To have something so personal and health related happen, it amplified that I was female in a room full of males. Not that I tried to dress like men, or act like men – but I never really tried to call out that I was female.” Karin     [36.06] The panel explore the negative connotations around menopause, the stigma of aging, and how we talk about menopause, to ourselves and to each other.     ·       Tackling stigma ·       Creating awareness ·       Open conversations ·       Education ·       Women leaving the workplace ·       Feeling of diminished value and vibrancy in the workplace ·       Shame ·       Women often internalize struggle/‘suffer in silence' ·       Interplay with personal life ·       Who's responsibility is it to change the conversation/challenge the stereotypes/tackle the stigma? ·       ERGs/women's groups ·       Systemic issue ·       Creating community ·       Safe spaces ·       HR   “I was a diversity and women's network leader for many years, and it wears you out… I would like to see more engagement with HR to help fuel some of these things to create awareness and reduce stigma. It can't all be on the women.” Claudia   [50.34] The group discuss the impact of menopause on women in the workplace, and how organizations can better support women to thrive, not just survive. ·       Clear and inclusive policies, processes and procedures ·       Confidentiality ·       Consideration of non-binary and trans people ·       Sick leave/menopause-related absence   ·       Manager training ·       Sensitivity ·       Informed conversations ·       Legal obligations/compliance ·       Identify appropriate accommodations ·       Access to resources ·       Health benefits  ·       Employee assistance programs ·       Menopause champions ·       Peer support groups   [58.04] The panel reflect on the different ways women can take control of their own health and wellbeing during menopause. ·       Advocacy ·       Try something different ·       Therapy ·       Alternative medicine ·       Medical referrals/recommendations ·       Keeping records ·       Taking control    ·       Assessing the symptoms that are having the biggest impact on quality of life ·       Keeping a symptom diary ·       Proactive approach to health    ·       Understanding triggers and managing responses  ·       Non-judgement   [01.03.58] The group sum up their thoughts from today's discussion.    RESOURCES AND LINKS MENTIONED: You can connect with Karin, Nadine and Claudia over on LinkedIn.  

Join us as we explore the fascinating world of highly sensitive individuals with our special guest, Elizabeth Cush, a therapist dedicated to supporting those with this unique genetic trait. Elizabeth, a highly sensitive person herself, sheds light on the characteristics of high sensitivity, such as deep emotional processing, heightened empathy, and sensitivity to sensory inputs like bright lights and loud noises. Through her personal experiences, including surviving domestic violence, Elizabeth provides invaluable insights into how these traits can shape one's life and relationships. Our discussion touches on clairsentience and the challenges of managing intense empathy, offering guidance to those navigating the complexities of high sensitivity in challenging circumstances.We also explore the intricacies of relationships for highly sensitive people, particularly the potential for manipulation and abusive dynamics due to their empathetic nature. Our conversation emphasizes the importance of self-awareness and establishing personal boundaries to foster healthier interactions. We highlight the work of Elaine Aaron and resources like the HSPerson website to aid in self-identification and understanding. Elizabeth also shares her work with "Awaken Your Wise Woman," providing practical advice on self-care and personal growth. This episode is a treasure trove of insights and resources for anyone identifying as highly sensitive, offering a path to manage overwhelm and cultivate positive, enriching relationships.

 My second interview with Hank Allen of Eagle, Idaho centers on Hank's claim that his electrical sensitivity dramatically diminished after he reduced the mold burden in his body using the approach described in Neil Nathan's book, Toxic. So dramatic was the improvement that Hank was able not only to attend his daughter's high-school graduation as he had hoped, but also to take the family on a vacation to Italy where he felt well. We also talk about faith, the current status of the lawsuit supported by CHD, and Hank's view that changes to radio-frequency safety guidelines — and he believes that broader support for the president and his HHS secretary would be beneficial. Finally, we clarify something from episode 83: Hank's reports of atrial fibrillation episodes that he says occurred at particular hours and while positioned on a line between cell towers—fascinating!

Dr. Eli Levenson-Falk joins Sebastian Hassinger, host of The New Quantum Era to discuss his group's recent advances in quantum measurement and control, focusing on a new protocol that enables measurements more sensitive than the Ramsey limit. Published in Nature Communications in April 2025, this work demonstrates a coherence stabilized technique that not only enhances sensitivity for quantum sensing but also promises improvements in calibration speed and robustness for superconducting quantum devices and other platforms. The conversation travels from Eli's origins in physics, through the conceptual challenges of decoherence, to experimental storytelling, and highlights the collaborative foundation underpinning this breakthrough.Guest BioEli Levenson-Falk is an Associate Professor at USC. He earned his PhD at UC Berkeley with Professor Irfan Siddiqui, and now leads an experimental physics research group working with superconducting devices for quantum information science. Key TopicsThe new protocol described in the paper: “Beating the Ramsey Limit on Sensing with Deterministic Qubit Control." Beyond the Ramsey measurement: How the team's technique stabilizes part of the quantum state for enhanced sensitivity—especially for energy level splittings—using continuous, slowly varying microwave control, applicable beyond just superconducting platforms. From playground swings to qubits: Eli explains how the physics of a playground swing inspired his passion for the field and lead to his understanding of the transmon qubit, and why analogies matter for intuition. Quantum decoherence and stabilization: How the method controls the “vector” of a quantum state on the Bloch sphere, dumping decoherence into directions that can be tracked or stabilized, markedly increasing measurement fidelity. Calibration and practical speedup: The protocol achieves greater measurement accuracy in less time or greater accuracy for a given time investment. This has implications for both calibration routines in quantum computers and for direct quantum measurements of fields (e.g., magnetic) or material properties. Applicability: While demonstrated on superconducting transmons, the protocol's generality means it may bring improved sensitivity to a variety of platforms—though the greatest benefits will be seen where relaxation processes dominate decoherence over dephasing. Collaboration and credit: The protocol was the product of a collaborative effort with theorist Daniel Lidar and his group, also at USC. In Eli's group, Malida Hecht conducted the experiment.Why It MattersBy breaking through the Ramsey sensitivity limit, this work provides a new tool for both quantum device calibration and quantum sensing. It allows for more accurate and faster frequency calibration within quantum processors, as well as finer detection of small environmental changes—a dual-use development crucial for both scalable quantum computing and sensitive quantum detection technologies.Episode Highlights Explanation of the “Ramsey limit” in quantum measurement and why surpassing it is significant. Visualization of quantum states using the Bloch sphere, and the importance of stabilizing the equatorial (phase) components for sensitivity. Experimental journey from “plumber” lab work to analytic insights, showing the back-and-forth of theory confronting experiment. Immediate and future impacts, from more efficient calibration in quantum computers to potentially new standards for quantum sensing. Discussion of related and ongoing work, such as improvements to deterministic benchmarking for gate calibration, and the broader applicability to various quantum platforms.If you enjoy The New Quantum Era, subscribe and tell your quantum-curious friends!

What if your sensory needs around food were not something to fix, but something to honor? In this solo episode of Dr. Marianne-Land: An Eating Disorder Recovery Podcast, Dr. Marianne Miller explores how taste, texture, and smell can shape food experiences for autistic people, especially those struggling with ARFID or longstanding selective eating. For many neurodivergent folks, eating is not just about hunger or nutrition. It is about navigating an overwhelming sensory world where food can trigger discomfort, distress, or shutdown. In this episode, Dr. Marianne challenges the idea that “picky eating” (not a fan of this term) is a behavioral issue. She instead centers a neurodivergent-affirming lens. Dr. Marianne explains why certain tastes may be too intense, why some textures are intolerable, and how even the smell of cooking can completely derail someone's ability to eat. Rather than dismissing these experiences, she offers a framework that respects the wisdom of the sensory system and centers bodily autonomy. Throughout the episode, Dr. Marianne also highlights how intersecting identities influence whose sensory needs get honored and whose get ignored. Fat autistic people are more likely to be accused of bingeing instead of being screened for ARFID. Autistic people of color may be labeled as oppositional instead of recognized as overwhelmed. Trans and nonbinary folks may feel especially vulnerable to dysphoria or sensory shutdown. When treatment spaces fail to consider these intersections, they increase the risk of harm and deepen eating-related trauma. Listeners will come away with a greater understanding of what sensory-based food aversions really are and how we can create supportive environments that do not rely on compliance, but rather collaboration, compassion, and choice. Content Caution About halfway through the episode, Dr. Marianne discusses common invalidating experiences autistic people have in treatment, including being coerced into eating foods that feel unsafe, ignored by providers, or misdiagnosed because of anti-fat bias or racism. There are no graphic food descriptions, but this part may be activating for folks who have experienced treatment trauma or food-related distress.

HEADLINE: Challenging Prospect Theory: Increasing Sensitivity to Loss in Human Behavior GUEST NAME: Tim Kane SUMMARY: Professor Tim Kane questions Kahneman and Tversky's Prospect Theory, presenting experiments that suggest humans exhibit increasing sensitivity to loss, rather than diminishing, impacting our understanding of complex rationality beyond financial gambles. Professor Tim Kane challenges Kahneman and Tversky's Prospect Theory, arguing that while losses hurt more than gains, people show increasing sensitivity to successive losses, not diminishing sensitivity. His chocolate experiment demonstrated higher demands to part with each subsequent piece, suggesting a "complex rationality" that differs in non-financial contexts from pure monetary gambles. 1900 SWITZERLAND

When the Dogs Stop Saying Hi: The Human Need for Connection and Belonging Patricia (she/her) explores the complexities of community, being perceived, and the challenges of navigating relationships amidst misunderstandings and cancel culture. She shares personal experiences of rupture and repair within her community, reflecting on the emotional impact of feeling excluded and the importance of acknowledging one's behavior in relationships. Patricia also highlights the simultaneous beauty of connections and celebrations, even amidst challenges, emphasizing the need for self-acceptance and understanding in the face of adversity. KEY TAKEAWAYS ·       The emotional toll of being perceived in a way that doesn't match how we see ourselves ·       Owning mistakes and navigating the possibility of repair (even when others might not be open) ·       The pain of being excluded from community events and how rejection sensitivity & OCD can flare ·       Mixed emotions around her birthday — feeling both unseen by some and deeply loved by others ·       The balance between taking accountability and resisting self-abandonment ·       Practices of self-compassion when reassurance doesn't come from others ·       What happens when justice, fragility, and nuance collide in relationships ·       Her growing love of animals, volunteering with horses, and a longing to return to simple joys ·       A behind-the-scenes peek into the Unapologetically AuDHD podcast launch ·       The challenges of time agnosia in friendships and how ND folks can navigate it compassionately ·       Updates on kayaking, paddleboarding, and listening to her nervous system ·       A gentle invitation to ask yourself: Would I want to be in community with people who won't repair? HIGHLIGHTS   ·       The challenge of being perceived differently than how we see ourselves. ·       Rupture and repair are essential components of relationships. ·       Community can provide both support and feelings of exclusion. ·       Setting boundaries is a right everyone has. ·       Cancel culture can complicate personal relationships. ·       Acknowledging one's behavior is crucial for repair. ·       It's important to celebrate connections amidst challenges. ·       Sensitivity is a unique trait that should be embraced. ·       Self-acceptance is key to navigating emotional turmoil. ·       Finding joy in small moments can help during difficult times.      SOUND BITES “Rupture and repair is part of being human. And sometimes repair doesn't happen — but that doesn't mean we stop showing up with integrity.” “My OCD wants reassurance. And sometimes, I just have to sit with that and give it to myself.” “We all have a primal need for belonging. And when that's taken away, it's a wound that goes deep.” "I want to spend time with animals." "It's okay to not be social." "It's okay to feel connected." SENSITIVITY IS NOTHING TO APOLOGIZE FOR; IT'S HOW YOUR BRAIN IS WIRED You are not broken. You were shaped by systems that weren't built for you. You deserve rest, joy, and support exactly as you are.  TOPICS COVERED (please adjust for addition of introduction)  00:00 Navigating Community and Perception 11:44 Rupture and Repair in Relationships 19:20 Celebrating Connections Amidst Challenges 25:44 Embracing Sensitivity and Self-Acceptance PODCAST HOST Patricia Young (she/her) was a Licensed Clinical Social Worker for over 17 years, but she is now exclusively providing coaching. She knows what it's like to feel like an outcast, misfit, and truthteller.  Learning about the trait of being a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP), then learning she is AuDHD with a PDA profile, OCD and RSD, helped Patricia rewrite her history with a deeper understanding, appreciation, and a sense of self-compassion.  She created the podcasts Unapologetically Sensitive and Unapologetically AuDHD to help other neurodivergent folks know that they aren't alone, and that having a brain that is wired differently comes with amazing gifts, and some challenges.  Patricia works online globally working individually with people, and she teaches Online Courses for neurodivergent folks that focus on understanding what it means to be a sensitive neurodivergent.

Today is a hard day for many. On this September 11th, we pause to honor the lives lost, the families forever changed, and the first responders who gave everything. And as podcasters, it raises a question: when a day of such magnitude arrives, is it right to step outside your niche and acknowledge it? Today, we wrestle with that tension between staying on brand and honoring history. We ask whether podcasters should break format to reflect, and how our platforms can serve as an aural history for future generations. We talk about balancing emotion with responsibility, the importance of pausing before reacting, and how to use our voices to share hope, gratitude, and positivity on days marked by tragedy. We wrap up early with a moment of silence, remembering September 11th while reflecting on the power we have as podcasters to hold space for collective memory.Episode Highlights: [2:31] Acknowledging the Sensitivity of 9/11[5:48] Personal Reflections and Podcasting Responsibilities[8:18] Balancing Podcast Content and Sensitivity[30:34] Aural History and Documenting Events[30:54] Moment of Silence in Remembrance of 9/11Links & Resources: Join The Empowered Podcasting Facebook Group:www.facebook.com/groups/empoweredpodcasting⁠Get Your Tickets for The Empowered Podcasting Conference:www.empoweredpodcasting.comRemember to rate, follow, share, and review our podcast.

Sometimes the path to healing starts with letting your imagination lead. In this episode, Lyndsay Soprano is joined by Deborah Weed for a conversation that blends creativity, resilience, and a fierce reclaiming of self-worth.Deborah shares her story of being bedridden for three years—misdiagnosed, dismissed, and cut off from the life she once knew. But instead of giving up, she turned inward, channeling her pain into something powerful: a Broadway-scale musical and a character named Paisley the Porcupine who teaches kids (and grown-ups) about the power of self-worth. “Quills up,” she says, is the reminder we all need when it's time to protect our truth and stand in our strength.They talk about the difference between self-worth and self-esteem, the impact of childhood narratives, and how creativity isn't just a passion, it's a path to remembering who you are. Whether it's theater, writing, music, or movement, pursuing what lights you up can be the most radical form of healing there is.Tune in if you've ever felt silenced, sidelined, or small, and are ready to take your power back, one creative spark at a time.Find Deborah Weed Online Here:Website: selfworthinitiative.netInstagram: @deborah.weedFacebook: Deborah WeedLinkedIn: Deborah WeedBook: Paisley's Last Quill If OnlyFind The Pain Game Podcast Online Here:Website: thepaingamepodcast.comInstagram: @thepaingamepodcastFacebook: The Pain Game PodcastLinkedIn: Lyndsay SopranoYouTube: The Pain Game PodcastHighlights:(00:00) Introduction to Chronic Pain and Creativity(02:38) Deborah's Journey from Bedridden to Broadway(05:23) The Power of Creativity in Healing(08:06) The Self-Worth Initiative and Its Impact(11:13) The Story of Paisley the Porcupine(14:00) Reclaiming Power and Self-Worth(17:05) The Role of Empathy and Sensitivity(20:01) The Importance of Community and Support(22:40) Final Thoughts on Healing and Creativity

This is a reshare of my interview with Jess Leondiou, originally featured on Make Your Mind podcast.I am grateful to Jess for graciously allowing me to repost our conversation from earlier this year.About Make Your Mind PodcastHow do our minds really work? How different are we from one another? What is the science behind our interactions, and how do we fit into the larger collective of consciousness? Make Your Mind explores these profound questions with curiosity and dedication to expanding our understanding of ourselves and the world. Jess brings together experts from various fields - those who study the science of the mind, experts in self-inquiry, and thought leaders with social and cultural insights - for conversations that unpack these evolving topics.Our ConversationIn her beautiful introduction, Jess reflects on how diagnosis impacts our sense of self. She explores the complex territory between finding relief and validation in labels, while also noticing how they can shift our self-perception. As research shows (Dweck), what we believe about ourselves profoundly shapes our behavior, and the language we use becomes central to how we operate.Thank you again, Jess, for this meaningful conversation and for the care you bring to exploring the breadth of human experience!!Originally featured on Make Your Mind podcast : https://creators.spotify.com/pod/profile/makeyourmind/episodes/Emotional-Sensitivity--Intensity-For-the-Neurodivergent-and-Gifted-Adult--with-Imi-Lo-e33ak1nPlease do check out her wonderful work as well! Archley's: https://www.archleys.com/pages/about-us?srsltid=AfmBOoquQqTW2HRBvOofa--49rkIqDCTLQU6qfcOXnxtuCG8rOmj9k0BEggshell Therapy and Coaching: eggshelltherapy.com About Imi Lo: www.imiloimilo.comInstagram:https://www.instagram.com/eggshelltherapy_imilo/ Newsletters: https://eepurl.com/bykHRzDisclaimers: https://www.eggshelltherapy.com/disclaimers Trigger Warning: This episode may cover sensitive topics including but not limited to suicide, abuse, violence, severe mental illnesses, relationship challenges, sex, drugs, alcohol addiction, psychedelics, and the use of plant medicines.

What do you do when you feel triggered and enter into a spiral of self-criticism and dysregulation? If you're a Highly Sensitive Person, this is a skill you need - because your super-charged nervous system will become overwhelmed sometimes. In this episode of SelfKind - a podcast for Highly Sensitive People - I share a real-life moment that poked my HSP sensitivities—time pressure, “don't waste time” beliefs, and justice sensitivity—and how I navigated the inner critic with self-compassion, breath, and gentle movement.In this episode you'll hear:⏰ My thoughts around time pressure (and why it's such a big trigger for me)⚖️ The role justice sensitivity plays in HSP overwhelm

Welcome back to our weekend Cabral HouseCall shows!   This is where we answer our community's wellness, weight loss, and anti-aging questions to help people get back on track!   Check out today's questions:    Ashley: Hi Dr. Cabral, love what you've done for the health industry - so much so that I recently graduated as an IHP L2 and will be attending RHS this Fall! I'm writing as I've been experiencing itchy, stinging hives on my face (typically around the chin, mouth and lower cheek area) for 6 months; once the inflammation on the hives settle down I'm left with what appears to be a whitehead. If popped, the skin becomes extremely dry and peels off within 24hrs. I experienced this once in 2018 after a TBI, but worked with a ND (since retired) that resolved my symptoms w/ gut work. I intend to complete the big 5 to asses what's happening, likely followed by a DCD and CBO protocol but would love your thoughts to ensure I'm on the right track and if you have seen these symptoms before. THANK YOU!                                     Tricia: Hi Dr. Cabral - Earlier this year, I had a food sensitivity test done. My bloodwork came in showing above average to tomatoes. The results were 4.7 mcg/ml and anything great than 2 suggests a sensitivity or intolerance. I've been drinking your greens powder every morning and then realized it does have tomatoes but I'm guessing it is a very small amount. Do you think I'm okay to continuing drinking the green powder? I'm working on reducing inflammation in my body. I'm going to retest later this year with your kit. Your test is much more extensive. Thank you!                                                                    Tricia: Hi again, Recent bloodwork showed my Omega 3: EPA at 2.8% by wt is above average. They consider anything above a 2.3 too high. Have you ever seen this before? Not sure why my balance of Omega 3 fatty acids are shifting towards EPA. I was taking your fish oil but have stopped temporarily. All other numbers for Omegas are in range. My total Omega 3 is in range at 7.5. Omega 6-total in range at 39.4. AA/EPA Ratio in range at 4. Homocysteine is 7.7 mcg/dl in range. Omega 6/3 ratio is 5.2. Can I get your opinion please? I know you can't diagnose or treat. I just want your opinion of what it could be and what I should do. Should I continue to take fish oil? I do eat Wild Salmon about 3 times a week. My HS-CRP is 4.1. Thanks for any guidance.                                        Jenny: Hi Dr Cabral - Weighted vests seem to be the latest fitness craze. What is your opinion of them? Thank you!                             Belinda: Please I have ovarian cyst and PID for over four years and I have been taking antibiotics and it's not helping, what should I do           Thank you for tuning into today's Cabral HouseCall and be sure to check back tomorrow where we answer more of our community's questions!    - - - Show Notes and Resources: StephenCabral.com/3501 - - - Get a FREE Copy of Dr. Cabral's Book: The Rain Barrel Effect - - - Join the Community & Get Your Questions Answered: CabralSupportGroup.com - - - Dr. Cabral's Most Popular At-Home Lab Tests: > Complete Minerals & Metals Test (Test for mineral imbalances & heavy metal toxicity) - - - > Complete Candida, Metabolic & Vitamins Test (Test for 75 biomarkers including yeast & bacterial gut overgrowth, as well as vitamin levels) - - - > Complete Stress, Mood & Metabolism Test (Discover your complete thyroid, adrenal, hormone, vitamin D & insulin levels) - - - > Complete Food Sensitivity Test (Find out your hidden food sensitivities) - - - > Complete Omega-3 & Inflammation Test (Discover your levels of inflammation related to your omega-6 to omega-3 levels) - - - Get Your Question Answered On An Upcoming HouseCall: StephenCabral.com/askcabral - - - Would You Take 30 Seconds To Rate & Review The Cabral Concept?

From sugar marketed as a performance tool to “whole grains” that drive cravings, this episode uncovers how hidden traps in modern nutrition can hijack your brain, wreck your metabolism, and accelerate aging.

Disempowered to Empowered: Meltdowns, Boundaries & Donuts   In this heartfelt episode, Patricia (she/her) shares three powerful personal stories that highlight the challenges—and wins—that come with being a sensitive, creative, neurodivergent human. From navigating family dynamics around living arrangements, to reclaiming power after a disempowering volunteer experience, and even exploring the emotional depth behind a simple craving for an apple fritter, Patricia offers an intimate and validating glimpse into what it's like to be an AuDHDer who feels things deeply—and still chooses to show up.   KEY TAKEAWAYS ·      You don't need to justify your needs. “They don't have to understand why I need two months. I just do.” ·      High masking + high empathy often = emotional invisibility. You're not alone if you feel overlooked or undervalued. ·      Internalizers often seem fine while falling apart inside—naming your pain out loud is a radical act of self-love. ·      Disempowerment doesn't mean you're weak. It often comes from past trauma, sensory overload, or lack of support. ·      Communication isn't always immediate. It's okay if clarity or assertiveness comes a day (or three) later. ·      There's no such thing as “too sensitive”—just systems that weren't built for your needs.   HIGHLIGHTS   ·       Patricia emphasizes the importance of asserting one's needs without feeling apologetic. ·       She shares her experience of feeling disempowered in family dynamics and how she navigated that. ·       The conversation highlights the challenges of communication in relationships, especially for neurodivergent individuals. ·       Patricia discusses the significance of volunteering and how it contributes to her sense of empowerment. ·       She reflects on the internal struggles (and unrealistic desire) of wanting others to understand her needs without explicit communication. ·       The importance of processing emotions and taking time to understand one's feelings is emphasized. ·       Patricia shares her journey of finding strength in her volunteering experience with horses. ·       She discusses the impact of trauma on her ability to communicate effectively. ·       The conversation touches on the theme of sensitivity being a unique aspect of one's identity, not something to apologize for. ·       Patricia encourages listeners to embrace their sensitivity and understand its value.   SOUND BITES "I need to have a meltdown." "It's my responsibility." "I felt seen and I felt heard." "I think we've learned to just detach from our feelings, to dissociate, and go along to get along—but it just doesn't work for us anymore." SENSITIVITY IS NOTHING TO APOLOGIZE FOR; IT'S HOW YOUR BRAIN IS WIRED You are not broken. You were shaped by systems that weren't built for you. You deserve rest, joy, and support exactly as you are.   TOPICS COVERED  ·       Autistic meltdowns & internal regulation: How Patricia recognized an impending meltdown and advocated for space and support. ·       Family boundaries & accommodation: The emotional toll of giving up a beloved workspace, and the grief that often goes unseen. ·       Losing & reclaiming joy: When creative hobbies fade and space feels scarce, how do you reconnect with yourself? ·       Assertiveness without apology: Speaking up about needs, even when it's hard, awkward, or overdue. ·       Feeling invisible in groups: Disempowerment during horse volunteer training and the journey to feeling confident and capable again. ·       Processing delays & trauma: Why it sometimes takes days to realize something didn't feel okay—and that's valid. ·       The donut story (yes, it matters): What a pastry can teach us about needs, unmet expectations, and healthy communication. ·       Relational repair & emotional safety: The delicate dance of vulnerability, misunderstanding, and being met with care. ·       The problem with people-pleasing: When masking and fawning keep you from honoring your own feelings. ·       What sensitivity really means: Reframing neurodivergent traits as strengths, not flaws. PODCAST HOST Patricia (she/her) was a Licensed Clinical Social Worker for over 17 years, but she is now exclusively providing coaching. She knows what it's like to feel like an outcast, misfit, and truthteller.  Learning about the trait of being a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP), then learning she is AuDHD with a PDA profile, OCD and RSD, helped Patricia rewrite her history with a deeper understanding, appreciation, and a sense of self-compassion.  She created the podcasts Unapologetically Sensitive and Unapologetically AuDHD to help other neurodivergent folks know that they aren't alone, and that having a brain that is wired differently comes with amazing gifts, and some challenges.  Patricia works online globally working individually with people, and she teaches Online Courses for neurodivergent folks that focus on understanding what it means to be a sensitive neurodivergent. Topics covered include: self-care, self-compassion, boundaries, perfectionism, mindfulness, communication, and creating a lifestyle that honors you Patricia's website, podcast episodes and more: twww.unapologeticallysensitive.com   LINKS  To write a review in itunes: click on this link https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/unapologetically-sensitive/id1440433481?mt=2 select “listen on Apple Podcasts” chose “open in itunes” choose “ratings and reviews” click to rate the number of starts click “write a review”Website--www.unapologeticallysensitive.com Facebook-- https://www.facebook.com/Unapologetically-Sensitive-2296688923985657/ Closed/Private Facebook group Unapologetically Sensitive-- https://www.facebook.com/groups/2099705880047619/ Instagram-- https://www.instagram.com/unapologeticallysensitive/ Youtube-- https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCOE6fodj7RBdO3Iw0NrAllg/videos?view_as=subscriber Tik Tok--https://www.tiktok.com/@unapologeticallysensitiv Podcast UnapologeticallyAuDHD-- https://unapologeticallysensitive.com/unapologeticallyaudhd/  e-mail-- unapologeticallysensitive@gmail.com Show hashtag--#unapologeticallysensitive Music-- Gravel Dance by Andy Robinson www.andyrobinson.com
