The Sensitive and Neurodivergent Podcast with Julie Bjelland

• why Jenn feels passionate about educating the public about high sensitivity and advocating for HSPs and everyone to embrace the gifts of sensitivity
• what HSPs should carefully consider before deciding whether to have children
• how HSP parents can balance meeting their family's needs as well as their own
• how HSPs who want to change the world can do so without burning out
• why the Sensitive Boost Effect gives hope to HSPs who struggle to appreciate their sensitive nature
• ways to transition from Threat mode into Soothe mode
• what the world might look like after a Sensitive Revolution
