Description

As highly sensitive people, it’s easy to take on emotions that aren’t ours. In this episode, you’ll learn how to:

  • Recognize when you’re absorbing others’ emotions

  • Use quick body check-ins to separate what’s yours vs. what's not

  • Set energetic boundaries before tough conversations

  • Release emotions that don’t belong to you at the end of the day

Your sensitivity is a gift— this is how to protect it while staying connected to yourself.
