In this episode of Sensitive Change Makers, I sit down with Marcas O’Dea – the first male guest I’ve ever had on the podcast – and what unfolds is one of the most powerful, honest and expansive conversations we’ve had on the show so far.

I invited Marcas on because of the work he’s doing with highly sensitive creative men, but what he shares goes so much deeper than that. Our conversation opens doors into intuition, trauma, creativity, identity, and what it really means to take ownership of sensitivity instead of feeling burdened by it.

Here’s a glimpse of what we explore:

  • How Marcas discovered, at a young age, that his sensitivity wasn’t a flaw but an “early warning system” that helped him survive a dangerous childhood.
  • The moment of clarity that pulled him out of addiction and into a life of purpose, service and creativity.
  • Why intuition became his greatest ally, and the small, consistent steps he took to strengthen that inner voice.
  • His unique “Committee of 12” approach to deep processing and decision-making.
  • How creativity became not just an outlet but a way of channelling sensitivity into meaning, storytelling and healing.
  • The surprising link between sensitivity, isolation, and clarity – and why he intentionally built a life in a quieter landscape.
  • His mission to give sensitive men a voice through coaching, community, a new podcast, and the upcoming Hearts of Thunder magazine.

This isn’t just a conversation about being a highly sensitive man. It’s a conversation about reclaiming the parts of ourselves we were told to hide, and letting them become the very things that set us free.

If you’ve ever felt “too much” or “not enough,” this episode will meet you exactly where you are.
