HIGHLIGHTS

The resources mentioned in this episode are:

  • Honor your emotions and personal boundaries by taking breaks, resting, and setting limits as needed.
  • Use cognitive tools, such as present moment focus, to help manage dysregulation and negative thought patterns.
  • Find a supportive group or community where you feel comfortable and understood, and avoiding situations that make you feel othered.
  • Invest in helpful tools, like noise-cancelling earplugs, to make sensory experiences more manageable.
  • Educate yourself about your own neurodivergence, such as autism, to better understand your needs and experiences.
  • Communicate your needs to friends and loved ones, and allow them to support you during difficult moments.
  • Recognize and challenge unhealthy attachment patterns or expectations in relationships.

PODCAST HOST

Patricia is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, and Coach.  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), helped Patricia rewrite her history with a deeper understanding, appreciation, and a sense of self-compassion.  She created the podcast Unapologetically Sensitive to help other HSPs know that they aren’t alone, and that being an HSP has amazing gifts, and some challenges.  Patricia works online globally working individually with people, and she teaches Online Courses for HSPs that focus on understanding what it means to be an HSP, self-care, self-compassion, boundaries, perfectionism, mindfulness, communication, and creating a lifestyle that honors us
