About this episode

In this episode, we're discussing the importance of not letting others' perceptions determine your self-worth. Highlighting real-life examples and personal experiences, I explore why people might form negative opinions, including past traumas and differing social preferences. She emphasizes the value of authenticity, emotional intelligence, and the need for highly sensitive people to manage triggers. Staying true to yourself despite external judgments and the importance of self-acceptance is so important as an HSP. Hit play and let's dive in!
