Highly Sensitive and Thriving with Chronic Illness

On the Season Three premiere of This Is Not What I Ordered, I share how my life-long health journey with eczema as a Highly Sensitive Person has taught me how to live an authentic life without guilt.

I also reflect on how being Highly Sensitive has helped me understand my illness, the importance of self-acceptance in the healing process, and how to create boundaries along the way.

During episode 45, I also talk with host Lauren Selfridge about:

• Showing up for yourself and the importance of self-advocacy

• Accepting that your needs are different

• The value and power of therapy for Highly Sensitive People

• Deconstructing our own misconceptions about Sensitivity

• The importance of creating space and time for self-care

• Creating a life that is suited to your needs

• How to prioritize yourself without guilt
