Unapologetically Sensitive
Patricia Young
In this podcast, we explore how sensitivity weaves itself into our lives. We talk about the richness that it adds, and the strengths we have BECAUSE of our sensitivity and some of the challenges it poses as well. If you are a Creative, a deep thinker, a deep feeler, neurodivergent, autistic, a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP), an introvert, or identify as INFJ or ENFJ, you may enjoy the in-depth conversations where we talk openly and honestly about how we experience life. This is a podcast where you can learn, relate, laugh and maybe even live a bolder, brighter life.
Have you been told you're "too" (fill in the blank)? You're too sensitive; you think/worry too much; you take things too personally; you're too emotional, too finicky, too fragile, too intense, too uptight, too slow. Have you been told you can't take a joke; you can't go with the flow? You can't let go of things? Making decisions can be very difficult. You might have an acute sense of smell, and strong odors, crowded noisy environments and bright lights are just too much!
You notice things that no one else does. You have a strong sense of justice and you may be a peace-keeper. Conflict feels uncomfortable. You're the one that everyone tells their problems to because you're a good listener who cares deeply.
You're in the right place!
You may have been diagnosed with anxiety, depression, ADHD or something else. Sometimes Highly Sensitive People are misdiagnosed. Our brains are wired differently. We are born with the trait of High Sensitivity. There's nothing wrong with you! You will learn that your perceived weaknesses are really are your superpowers! Dr. Elaine Aron coined the term Highly Sensitive Person (also known as Sensory Processing Sensitivity).

148 Self-Care When You're Overwhelmed, With Jen Perry
Self-Care When You're Overwhelmed It can be hard to start tasks and complete them when you're overwhelmed. Jen and I talk about strategies that work for us. We also talk about the importance of pleasure and rest vs. having to do all the hard stuff before you treat yourself to a reward. Jen talks about looking at who's telling the story when you have a gremlin (I started the episode feeling I was being bossy and controlling), and about looking at what the need is behind an annoying or distracting behavior.

146 Showing Up Messy, With Jen Perry
Showing up Messy When you have high standards for yourself, it can be very difficult to show up imperfectly, and it's easy to go into self-blame. Unfortunately, this usually comes at a cost. Jen and I talk about how to make the shift from focusing on external expectations (and fear of judgment), to focusing internally on what you want and what you are able to give. We talk about the gifts of self-compassion, vulnerability, deep connection, and focusing on the relationship instead of unrealistic high standards.

145 Sometimes It's Hard Being Me
Sometimes It's Hard Being Me Even if you're having times when you feel "meh," or you're having fears, anxiety, imposter syndrome, or you're not feeling confident, you can still show up and do what's in front of you. It's ok to struggle and have hard times, but what you tell yourself about these times is crucial. I share about some current struggles, and I talk about specific tools you can use when you're struggling. It's not about waiting until you feel motivated or confident; it's about showing up when things are hard. PODCAST HOST Patricia is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, and Coach.

Overwhelm & Perfectionism as a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP) Do you wake up with anxiety because you're worried or feeling overwhelmed? How do you find joy around your to do list? Jen and I talk about where we feel overwhelmed, and the imperfect ways we manage perfectionism. Jen says it's like stringing beads with no knot at the end.

US 143 How to deepen intimacy in relationships with Jen Perry
How to Deepen Intimacy in Relationships Many Highly Sensitive People (HSPs) overperform in relationships, or want more depth, but don't know how to do that. Jen and I talk about our gremlins, as well as how you can rest in the attachment in your relationships, so you can have more depth. We talk about how that security is achieved. This includes vulnerability and risking the loss of the relationship, but it also creates the possibility for meaningful connection, deep trust, fulfilling friendships and intimacy.

141 Honoring Yourself and Using Your Voice
Honoring Yourself and Using Your Voice Do you find that when have been hurt or disappointed that you have your feelings alone, and don't share with the other person how you were affected? If you ask someone to help you, and they say, "No," but it's important to you, do you explain why it's important or do you just accept the "no?" I share specific examples of this happening to me, and how I communicated, and how it was received. You're allowed to be brave and vulnerable and to have your needs met.

140 Getting Grounded and Orienting to Yourself, with Jen Perry
Getting Grounded and Orienting to Yourself Many Highly Sensitive People (HSPs) learn to focus on everyone else's needs. The focus is external instead of internal. You don't learn how to focus on your perspective, your body, or your needs. This can be an orientation injury. The Highly Sensitive Person can see multiple perspectives, and based on your attachment patterns, this can make it harder (or easier) to focus on the needs, emotions and happiness of others. We explore how to get grounded in your sovereignty. GUEST Jen Perry, MSEd, MA, LPC GUEST BIO Jen Perry, MSEd, MA, LPC has been a psychotherapist for 20 years. She specializes in helping Highly Sensitive People thrive in love, work, and parenting Highly Sensitive Children.

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 LINKS Jen's links Jen@heartfulnessconsulting.com Phone: 215-292-5056 Website: https://heartfulnessconsulting.com/ Facebook.com/Heartfulnessconsulting Burnout: The Secret to Unlocking the Stress Cycle by Emily Nagoski Patricia's Links Collaborative Problem Solving by Ross Green HSP Online Course--https://unapologeticallysensitive.com/hsp-online-groups/ Unapologetically Sensitive Merchandise-- https://patriciayounglcsw.com/product-category/merchandise/ Online HSP Course Materials (no group included) https://patriciayounglcsw.com/product-category/hsp-classes/ Receive the top 10 most downloaded episodes of the podcast-- https://www.subscribepage.com/e6z6e6 Sign up for the Newsletter-- https://www.subscribepage.com/y0l7d4 To write a review in itunes: click on this link https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/unapologetically-sensitive/id1440433481?mt=2 select "listen on Apple Podcasts" chose "open in itunes" choose "ratings and reviews" click to rate the number of starts click "write a review" Website--www.unapologeticallysensitive.com Facebook-- https://www.facebook.com/Unapologetically-Sensitive-2296688923985657/ Closed/Private Facebook group Unapologetically Sensitive-- https://www.facebook.com/groups/2099705880047619/ Instagram-- https://www.instagram.com/unapologeticallysensitive/ Youtube-- https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCOE6fodj7RBdO3Iw0NrAllg/videos?view_as=subscriber Tik Tok-- https://www.tiktok.com/@hsppodcast e-mail-- unapologeticallysensitive@gmail.com Show hashtag--#unapologeticallysensitive Podcast editing by The Podcast Distillery Co https://thepodcastdistillery.co Music-- Gravel Dance by Andy Robinson www.andyrobinson.com
