We are not talking about releasing others to absolve them from hurt they have caused but we are talking about self-forgiveness as an important part of self-compassion and the work we can do to learn from past experiences.

From childhood memories to societal pressures, we're sharing our personal journeys and unpacking the thin = good, fat = bad myth.

"Comparison is the thief of joy" said Theodore Roosevelt. The mean voice that tells us we're not good enough (or anything else enough) when we're having self-confidence challenges. The voice that tells us to look at how well others are doing and we can't possibly be as good. It's trying to protect us from something perceived as a potential threat by keeping us full of shame and playing small. It also stops us growing and going for things we want. It steals our...2023-06-1653 minHSP ConnectionHSP ConnectionEpisode 12 - PermissionAs children we need permission from adults to do almost everything, and often, that conditioning stays with us into adulthood.

Robbie discovered her rhythm and needs by learning from what didn't work for her. In contrast, for Philippa, it was a matter of taking a chance and trying something different, inspired by Brené Brown's Ted Talk on vulnerability. Both of them experienced significant changes as a result of their discoveries. Acknowledging that, despite achieving what society deems as "success", it doesn't equate to happiness allowed Philippa to explore her own needs.

As Robbie says, self-care is as important for HSPs as sleep.  During the episode, we talk about slowing down to be present and aware of our surroundings, prioritizing time for rest and digestion, and giving ourselves permission to take care of ourselves.
