Unrealistic Expectations

Do you have unrealistic expectations of yourself, followed by self-judgment, criticism and berating yourself? How do you honor where you’re at and find the balance between honoring and pushing? Much of the healing you do is in relationship with others. There may also be an expectation that you will “arrive” at a permanent state of healing or peace, and then you judge yourself when you drop back into the struggle. Specific tools are provided for when you’re back in the “meh.”

PODCAST HOST

Patricia is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, and Coach.  She knows what it’s like to feel like an outcast, misfit, and truthteller.  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
