Once a month I host a "Get Curious" episode where people like you, who are interested in untangling from their patterns, join in to explore with some guidance.In this episode, I dive deep into the experiences of being an empath, especially for those who easily pick up on the emotions and energy of others. Joined by Keisja and Stacey, we explore both the gifts and challenges of being highly sensitive. Together, we look at how our developmental experiences shape our empathy and survival patterns. This conversation isn’t just about strategies for self-protection, though we touch on those. Instead, we dig into the core of why we sense danger in certain environments and how that influences our behaviors. If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by others' emotions or unsure where your feelings end and theirs begin, this episode will resonate. I invite you to reflect on your own experiences and explore how healing can shift you from merely surviving as an empath to fully embracing its gifts.About the Guest:Stacey Barnes is a Life/Well-being Coach.
