MP3•Episode home

As a Highly Sensitive Person do you ever feel like you're on the edge of overwhelm? Especially when life gets really busy (hello, Christmas and holiday period!)?
In this episode of SelfKind, a podcast for Highly Sensitive People, I’m sharing a simple nervous system metaphor that will remind you of why it's so important to be mindful of your capacity, and when it's quickly running out.
This episode will be especially supportive if you:
🌼 Identify as a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP)
🌼 Feel emotionally drained or on edge
🌼 Notice that seemingly small things trigger big reactions in your system
🌼 Struggle during busy seasons or transitions
🌼 Want practical, gentle ways to reduce overwhelm
We explore:
🌼 Why HSPs reach capacity faster
🌼 How everyday stress fills your metaphorical jug
🌼 Why overwhelm isn’t caused by the last small thing (even when it feels like it is)
🌼 Simple, realistic ways to pour some of the load out
🌼 How to move through busy times with more kindness and capacity
