HSP Gifts & Importance of Community
In this event, for the Evolved Empath Summit with the Shift Network, I shed light on how highly sensitive people (HSPs) can properly balance their nervous system… increasing their sense of wellbeing and allowing their many gifts to emerge and be shared with the world. I also share the importance of being in a community of other HSPs, like my Sensitive Empowerment community.

● The journey from self rejection into self ownership as an HSP
● The responsibility of our “super powers” and bringing them into service
● Our innate abilities in empathic leadership
● The identity shift from “Sensitive” into Sensory Intelligence

Grounding With Greatness with Life Coach Leah Walsh
This is our 22nd event within my online Sensitive Empowerment community! This event is available to watch by video along with other amazing events at www.sensitive-empowerment.com. Check out all the incredible ways we are learning how to live our best life as sensitive people together!
What a powerful visualization Leah shared with us! I loved the thought of imagining grounding like a tree with roots spread far and deep and how that can help us in so many areas of our life. We can connect deeply to ourselves, and access powerful self-love and self-compassion, our root core values, safety and a great source of strength within us! If you are rooted in the ground you can give more to the world, help others, and let go of anxiety, fear, or anything holding you back.
We talked about how to clearly understand the difference between earthing and grounding.
Leah:
-gave a simple definition of grounding within the physical-energetic human body
-helped us have experience practicing this with our own bodies (in a 5-8 min active meditation)
-named reasons why this is important (in business, in a relationship, having a sensitive body)
-helped us name 2 different ways to tell if we are ungrounded (body cues)
-helped us name 1 next step/takeaway to work with this learning in our own life
-offered a free gift!
More From Leah: I know you! You’re a culture shifter. You’re sensitive. You have your own brand of greatness in you.
But, it can be too easy for your brilliant ideas and most genuine contributions to stay on the sidelines as low-self esteem and lived trauma make taking up space difficult. This diminishes your life force and keeps you limited in your experience of success and joyful belonging.
Thankfully, there is another way.
This event will teach you a powerful grounding framework (offered by our standing tree relatives) that can help you to sustain new levels of contribution and success, take new risks, be seen and heard in ways that you’ve always desired, and all by honoring the beautiful nature of your sensitivity.
Trees are one of our oldest and wisest teachers. They model so clearly that if we want to be an impactful presence in the world, we must build the roots to sustain the vision and generous gifts that will come from our reaching branches. Join me!
Leah Walsh (she/her) is motivated by one desire: to support conscious and creative people to uncover their unique potential and bring that light into the world. Leah loves to see every human as a beautiful and unique flower in life’s garden, but being your own flower can be hard work! It means cultivating a strong mind, deep roots and clear heart to allow your flower to grow, adapt, & bloom. Leah’s work as a Life Coach supports people do just this. Her signature coaching program, Positively Sensitive, specifically supports other highly sensitive and introverted leaders to ground their confidence, cultivate deep-rooted belonging and awaken their unique bloom.

Please share your experiences and what resonated for you! We love hearing from you!
