  • Podcast helps me with understanding myself

    Sensitive Stories has become such a meaningful podcast for me, especially during moments when anxiety or depression feels overwhelming. There have been so many episodes where I’ve found myself listening and thinking, “This is exactly how I feel.” There is something incredibly comforting about hearing someone put words to emotions that I sometimes struggle to explain myself.

    What I love most about this podcast is that it doesn’t just tell you to “think positive” or simply push your feelings asid... more

  • Favorite Pod

    This has quietly become my favorite podcast over the past few months. I guess it’s so surprise that an HSP pod snuck into my heart that way! I find myself coming back to it time and again for the insights, the stories, and the gentleness. It’s my weekend pod, and the fact that I’m willing to spend my weekend time on it says a lot! It feels like a big cup of something warm and validating. I highly recommend to the big thinkers and feelers out there, even if you’re not all about seeing everything ... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

86: Aligning with Your Intuition
Q: Do you think cards are the best place to start since they're so tangible?
Loureiro says cards can be a helpful starting point, while noting that other grounding practices also create space to listen inwardly. Her suggested ritual is to pause and breathe, draw a card, notice what it brings up, and reflect or journal about it.
86: Aligning with Your Intuition
Q: I'm wondering as HSPs, why are we so maybe resistant, or why do we struggle to trust that inner voice once we do have access to it?
Loureiro says that childhood experiences of being called too sensitive can leave people feeling flawed or excessive, making it harder to trust themselves and their intuition. She recommends approaching missed cues with kindness rather than self-criticism.
85: Big Feelings, Big Joy Part II
Q: What inspired you to focus on joy and positive experiences in the HSP conversation?
The goal was to shift the narrative from only recognizing the challenges of being an HSP to highlighting how HSPs can experience joy, awe, and meaningful moments more intensely, which also serves as a resilience against stress.
REPLAY: Breaking the Cycle of Self-Sacrifice
Q: What does cycle breaking mean in your life and work?
It means recognizing harmful intergenerational patterns, undoing the work of those patterns, and reestablishing a sense of self and safety in a way that protects and nourishes current relationships and future generations.
82: Finding Your Way Back to Wholeness
Q: Is there a practical way to begin reconnecting with one's self after chronic stress?
Yes, start by applying the Sensitive Soul framework, emphasizing somatic work, mindfulness, and rebuilding a relationship with your body and feelings before delving into deeper cognitive or emotional work.
