Description

Did you ever realize that your child's high sensitivity might be a mirror reflecting your own? In this episode, I take you on a personal journey back to my own childhood, where I grappled with being highly sensitive, often feeling overwhelmed by emotions and retreating to my room to cry when things felt too intense.


I share the shame and isolation I felt growing up, feeling too much and too deeply, and how these experiences initially left me confused and easily hurt. It wasn't until I became a parent to a highly sensitive child that I began to truly understand and appreciate the depth of my own feelings.


In this episode, we'll explore how recognizing your own sensitivity can illuminate your parenting path and deepen your connection with your child. Here’s the thing: it’s important to recognize sensitivity not as a burden, but as a superpower. I’ll let you in on a secret – when we recognize sensitivity as a superpower, we can pay more attention to how we respond to big feelings, which equals a more nurturing and supportive family environment.
