Are you a sensitive person? Have you been cast in that role by others and perhaps condemned to repeat it by yourself? Me too.

    SENSITIVITY and INDISCRETION

  2. SENSITIVITY vs. PRACTICALITY

    FEB 3

    SENSITIVITY vs. PRACTICALITY

    This episode goes off on the definitions of a word and applying those definitions to different aspects of sensitivity to help challenge the unconscious beliefs we hold regarding the two “opposites”. Takeaway? Your relationship with your emotions doesn’t have to be a power struggle. Woot woot. Recorded October 7, 2023.

  3. SENSITIVITY as WEAKNESS

    JAN 20

    SENSITIVITY as WEAKNESS

    Welcome to the halfway point of the season. How is it holding up so far? Lemme know. In this episode, I focus on how the ‘weakness’ of a sensite’s character creates environments of being patronized and the impacts of this ‘emotional conservatorship’. Recorded September 24, 2023.

  4. SENSITIVITY as CRYING

    JAN 6

    SENSITIVITY as CRYING

    Can you think of any more supreme example of the stereotype? Yes, crying can be a resource and has legitimate benefits for us but it can be a cop out. I talk about why it is a go-to and how we do it a disservice through our misuse of it. Recorded September 11, 2023.

  5. SENSITIVITY and SELF-PITY

    12/16/2024

    SENSITIVITY and SELF-PITY

    Again, pretty self-explanatory. A preoccupation with self. Egotistical. A non-resourceful state. But as the point always is here, we discuss the how and why. We bring to light how, although licking our wounds isn’t integrity, we have learned that holding onto our hurts is a way of protecting ourselves because they have been disregarded so many times. Luckily, we can harness this energy in better ways and empower ourselves through this process. Recorded September 3, 2023.

  6. SENSITIVITY as ANTI-SOCIAL BEHAVIOUR

    12/02/2024

    SENSITIVITY as ANTI-SOCIAL BEHAVIOUR

    The first time the podcast is named! Here is your official welcome to SENSI. Happy that you are here! This episode is one I am partial to. I didn’t know it going in but I appreciate how the concept was verbalized and will be revisited numerous times throughout season one. Being anti-social is dubbed a negative quality by social standing. In this episode, I discuss how it can serve as a haven for people constantly rubbed raw by the pressures of people and expectations.

  7. SENSITIVITY vs. SOCIAL ETIQUETTE

    11/18/2024

    SENSITIVITY vs. SOCIAL ETIQUETTE

    In this episode, we discuss the rigidity of social etiquette and how it can trap or aggravate sensitivity, and I propose the idea of emotional etiquette to inform social etiquette.

  8. SENSITIVITY and ASSUMED RELATIONSHIPS

    11/04/2024

    SENSITIVITY and ASSUMED RELATIONSHIPS

    This episode is pointed toward sensitive people and a shortfall that undermines our integrity. This shortfall is the correlation we assume between (1) our feelings and our behaviours, and (2) our feelings with another person's intentions. Because of this, we - the "sensitive" person - end up behaving insensitively. Recorded July 30, 2023. If you want to learn more find me on Instagram at either @shaebutinallcaps or @hh.almanac

  9. SENSITIVITY as REACTIVITY

    10/21/2024

    SENSITIVITY as REACTIVITY

    The title is self-explanatory. The stereotype of ‘you can’t handle emotions’, and ‘you can’t see beyond your current perspective’, includes your reactivity. So how is it a fair judgement? Because although the stereotype is dehumanizing we can’t deny that there are examples of our reactivity that we know to be true (and damn does that piss us off). So how can we face this behaviour while honouring where it comes from? In this episode, we begin to explore the idea of integrity. Recorded July 23, 2023.

  10. SENSITIVITY and EGO

    10/07/2024

    SENSITIVITY and EGO

    And we hit our stride! Welcome to the beginning of full-length episodes. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do. As a sensitive person, you have likely been told that you take yourself too seriously. You are self-involved. You are selfish. In this episode, we are riffing on the ideas around the unavoidability of having an ego, having a healthy ego, what it can do for you, and where the tipping point is between having a healthy relationship with yourself and when (and how) it becomes a detriment to others and the relationships you have with them.

  11. SENSITIVITY vs. 'HANDLING IT'

    09/16/2024

    SENSITIVITY vs. 'HANDLING IT'

    When does ‘Pull up your bootstraps!’, ‘Toughen up!’, and ‘Take it like a man!’ mean ‘your humanity is showing’ and we don’t like it? The stereotype says that sensitive people can’t handle their own emotions. I say denying that emotions are a permanent fixture of the human condition isn’t ‘handling it’. Discounting emotions is what is done when that’s all one can bear to do… But what if we can do better? Recorded May 21, 2023.

  12. SENSITIVITY and PANDERING

    09/02/2024

    SENSITIVITY and PANDERING

    “Welcome to the Half Baked Podcast”??? Lemme explain. I had started a podcast that was recorded on a whim, with very few notes, and no specific outcome in mind…. until I realized that it was always coming back to one thing: Sensitivity. So I gave in. I gave in and as soon as I did this season (and a few more) came bubbling to mind in perfect clarity. So let’s go! This is the beginning of unravelling the stereotype that is sensitivity. This podcast is for sensitive folk, for people who have sensitive folk in their lives or perhaps those people who want to reclaim the sensitivity they have lost throughout their own. We begin with the declaration that sensitive people do not need others pandering to them. We need people to stop. In this episode, we discuss where this behaviour comes from and what purpose it serves as well as what purpose it doesn’t (and it does not serve healthy boundaries, respect or regard sensitivity with the legitimacy it deserves), Recorded May 21, 2023.
