    Burnout as a Reckoning with Rebecca Jenkin

    What if burnout isn’t a failure, but a message? Not a sign that you’re weak, but a moment that asks you to come home to yourself.

    Creative Confidence for Sensitive People with Andy Mort

    What if creativity isn’t about talent and more about permission? Permission to notice, to imagine, to follow a thread without knowing where it leads.   In this episode, I’m joined by Andy Mort, songwriter, creativity coach and founder of The Haven, an online community for highly sensitive people. Together we explore the relationship between sensitivity, creativity and confidence, and what becomes possible when ideas are allowed to unfold in community rather than in isolation. Andy shares the story behind his collaborative ‘zine’ process inside The Haven, and how playful prompts can open up surprising depth, connection and self-trust.   What we talk about in this episode:   Andy’s journey with high sensitivity and what helped him move from resistance to integrationThe link between sensitivity and creativity, including the role of imagination and nuanceHow the zine process inside The Haven builds confidence through invitation rather than pressureWhy low stakes creative experimentation can soften self-doubtSensitivity as a collective voice, not just an individual trait  More about Andy:   Website: https://www.andymort.comCommunity: https://the-haven.coLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/apmort

  6. Highly Sensitive + Sensation Seeking with Dr Tracy Cooper

    9. Feb.

    Highly Sensitive + Sensation Seeking with Dr Tracy Cooper

    What if the part of you that craves depth and quiet is also the part that longs for novelty, movement, and new experiences?   In this episode, I’m joined by Dr Tracy Cooper, a leading researcher in high sensitivity and high sensation seeking, to explore what happens when these two traits live in the same nervous system.   Tracy brings both academic rigour and lived experience to this conversation. As a highly sensitive, high sensation seeking person himself, he shares what the research tells us, alongside what it actually feels like to live with this inner push and pull in real life and work.   What we talk about in this episode:   What high sensation seeking actually is, and how it differs from impulsivity or risk takingWhy many highly sensitive people feel a constant tension between needing stimulation and needing restHow research shows these traits are independent, yet powerful when understood togetherThe strengths of being both highly sensitive and high sensation seeking, especially in creative and professional rolesPractical ways to work with this combination without burning out or dulling yourself down  More about Tracy:   Website: https://drtracycooper.orgLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tracy-cooper-ph-d-85b9a72Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/tracycooperPhDInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/tracycooperphdSensitive Men Rising: https://sensitivemenrising.org

  7. A More Human Way to Lead with Lise Lønsmann

    A More Human Way to Lead with Lise Lønsmann

    What if the way you’ve learned to lead is actually pulling you further from who you really are? In this episode, I’m joined by Lise Lønsmann – a trauma-informed somatic practitioner and embodied leadership mentor – for a conversation about what it means to lead without abandoning yourself.   We explore how conventional leadership often rewards speed, control and performance, and why slowing down can feel countercultural but deeply necessary. Lise shares how embodiment helps us reconnect with our inner resource, why resourcing is about meaning not productivity, and how we can begin to meet discomfort without getting lost in it.   Whether you see yourself as a leader or not, this one is for anyone curious about a more human way to work and live.   What we talk about in this episode:   What it really means to lead from the body (and why it matters)The power of slowing down, especially in fast-paced environmentsHow nervous system awareness changes the way we lead and relateWhy "bringing your whole self to work" is both radical and deeply humanThe importance of tending to your needs (not just overriding them)  More about Lise:   Find Lise’s work here:   Website: https://www.liseloensmann.comLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/liseloensmannInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/liseloensmannhealing

In this episode, I’m joined by Ana Pashyanti – international speaker, mystic, and self-confessed explorer of the inner and outer realms – to unpack what it means to be both a highly sensitive person and a high sensation seeker.   We explore how these two traits can coexist, why they sometimes pull us in different directions, and how Ana has learned to work with both in a way that feels expansive rather than exhausting.   What we talk about in this episode:   The unlikely pairing of sensitivity and sensation seekingLearning to trust your body’s yes – and noHow exploration (inner and outer) became Ana’s compassPractical ways to recharge, clear your energy and staygroundedBuilding a life that honours both your craving for stillnessand your hunger for more  More about Ana:You can find Ana’s work and free resources at:   Website: https://www.anapashyanti.comLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ana-pashyantiSubstack: https://anapashyanti.substack.comInsight Timer: https://insighttimer.com/anapashyantiYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@AnaPashyanti/videos
