172: How I don't absorb other people's emotions as a highly sensitive person
Ever feel completely drained after holding space for someone going through something heavy?? Like you're carrying their emotions long after the conversation ends?
Yea i bet ya do :)
Because you're highly sensitive AND conditioned to rescue others.
This is NOT a flaw, it is a GIFT
And, learning to wield and work with your sensitivity is crucial.
If you're a human who feels everythinggggg, this episode is for you.
I'm pulling back the curtain on how I work with clients through their deepest emotional experiences -- tears, rage, grief, all of it -
without burning out or needing hours to decompress afterward.
And no, this doesn't mean shutting down your empathy or building walls around your heart.
In this episode, I share my exact framework for staying grounded and regulated even when clients are in the THICK of their emotions.
You'll learn why not victimizing your clients/people is the most compassionate thing you can do, why trying to "rescue" people actually blocks their healing, and how radical non-judgment creates a psychedelic-level container.
If you're tired of emotional hangovers, people-pleasing patterns, or feeling like you have to carry everyone's pain, this episode will show you how to hold space with presence, curiosity, and lightness -
so showing up for people actually feels nourishing instead of depleting.
What you'll take away:
