'You're too sensitive / serious etc'. How to navigate being judged.
Description
Nigel and Tricia chat about things they notice happening around them. Inspired by a comment from someone in their community, they decided to explore a little more.
This person was told they were ‘too sensitive', which left them feeling upset and hard on themselves.
This led Tricia and Nigel to chat about the common intention around the word 'too'.
Perhaps you have felt uncomfortable when this has been said to you, without realising why.
Often our pain and reactions come from what we hear and see around us, so by bringing out and discussing some of these common language patterns, we have more of a chance of doing something different.
Rather than suffer, we can pause and do something more helpful and kind to ourselves.
We hope as you listen to this unfolding conversation, you find something helpful as you navigate your own daily situations.
