This episode is very much about The Big Picture - about how sensitives are great at connecting the dots, giving sage advice, and incorporating our whole beings when it comes to personal development.
Jennifer Parker shares an amazing story of homeschooling her 3 boys, discovering HSP, and building resiliency.
And then we talk about the superpower many sensitives seem to have in common - taking on the role of cycle breakers. It takes a lot of courage, but sensitive people are uniquely equipped to do this work because of our natural introspectiveness and our emotional strength. We know from experience how important it is to be our WHOLE selves, and breaking the patterns of generational trauma is just one of the ways we can leave a sensitive legacy.
Jennifer has been studying personal growth for almost two decades. What she found is this: Much of what is taught in the personal growth world simply does not work for everyone!
Particularly if we have highly sensitive nervous systems and/or nervous systems that have been wired during trauma, pushing ourselves harder only backfires. Those findings inspired her to write her first book, Secrets of the Resilient Empath.
In her spare time, Jennifer enjoys hanging out with her husband and three boys, contemplating the mysteries of the universe, and laughing until her face hurts. If she isn’t at home, she’s likely either hiking in the woods or at the local nursery looking for one more plant.
