Unapologetically Sensitive

We explore how sensitivity weaves itself into our lives; the richness that it adds, and the strengths we have BECAUSE of our sensitivity--and some of the challenges it poses as well. You may learn to live a bolder, brighter life.

TITLE

I Didn’t Know How To Use My Sensitivity

GUEST 

Kelly Vance

EPISODE OVERVIEW 

We talk about boundaries, perfectionism, and the negative labels we use to describe our sensitivity, and how Kelly changed how she views herself.  Kelly talks briefly about how she felt seen and heard when I unintentionally voiced my monogamy bias after learning that Kelly is polyamorous. We laugh at our HS quirks and struggles and have a very vulnerable and open conversation.  Kelly is very reflective and articulate about her experiences and struggles as an HSP. Kelly once told me I have Mad Lady Balls, and we laugh about that, but we also talk about the courage and strength it takes to be vulnerable.

GUEST BIO

Kelly Vance is a Highly Sensitive Person from Scottsdale, Arizona.  She is a freelance writer, human resources administrator, and lover of all things irreverent, silly and whimsical.  Outside of quarantining during a global pandemic, she can be found in thrift stores, art galleries, or shopping for questionable items on Etsy. 

PODCAST HOST

Patricia is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, and Coach.  She knows what it’s like to feel like an outcast, misfit, and truth-teller.  Learning about the trait of being a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP), helped Patricia rewrite her history with a deeper understanding, appreciation, and a sense of self-compassion.  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.
