In today's episode of the Recovery Daily Podcast, I explore sensitivity. Often portrayed as a weakness, sensitivity can feel overwhelming, especially when coupled with alcoholism. However, in recovery, sensitivity reveals itself as a gift.
Today I discuss how sensitivity can enable us to connect deeply with others and build strong, meaningful relationships. Sensitivity drives empathy, compassion, and passion—traits that have encouraged me to recover out loud and support others on their journey.
I also address managing sensitivity constructively. These include channeling sensitivity into creative expression, volunteering, self-care, and advocating for important causes. By harnessing sensitivity for good, we can enrich our lives and the lives of those around us.
