122. You Are Not Responsible for Everyon...

Alissa Boyer
About this episode

As HSPs, we are highly attune to other peoples feelings. Maybe more attune than we'd like to be because we end up compromising our own feelings for others.



It's important for our mental wellbeing to realize that other people's feelings are not for us to control.




In this episode, you'll learn:




  • How to stay firm in your boundaries when it feels selfish
  • Why it's not your responsibility to control others' emotions
  • How to regulate yourself through the discomfort.
