    219. Why You Feel Like You're "In Trouble" When People Get Upset With You & 3 Tips to Shift OUT of This

    Today Alissa is diving into a pattern she sees often in highly sensitive women—and one she's personally navigated herself—the instant sinking feeling that you’re “in trouble” whenever someone disagrees with you, gets upset, or pushes back. This episode explores the roots of this response—often tied to the fawn response, good girl conditioning, and past experiences with unpredictability or invalidation—and how it can leave you feeling frustrated, insecure, and walked over. Whether you’re 20 or 70, it’s never too late to start reclaiming your confidence, self-worth, and ability to show up authentically without letting fear or past patterns dictate your actions. What You’ll Learn: Why you default to blaming yourself or apologizing even when you’re not in the wrong.How good girl conditioning and past experiences shape your responses to conflict.Ways to begin building self-trust and honoring your own boundaries.How to expand your tolerance for discomfort so conflict doesn’t feel unsafe.How to hold empathy, kindness, and strong boundaries all at the same time.Steps to shift your identity from “people pleaser” to confident, empowered you.

    218. Growth Gap: The Tension Between Who You've Been & Who You're Becoming

    In this episode, Alissa shares a powerful reflection on the connection between personal growth and expanding your tolerance for discomfort. She explains how the moments that stretch us, challenge us, and make us uncomfortable are actually the in-between spaces where transformation happens. Using real examples from her postpartum fitness journey and her early days coaching highly sensitive people, Alissa reminds us that confidence and self-trust are built through showing up in the messy middle, not avoiding it. You’ll learn why avoiding discomfort keeps HSPs stuck in people-pleasing, how to recognize the growth hidden inside your triggers, and why the tension between who you’ve been and who you’re becoming is exactly where your evolution lives. What You’ll Learn: Why expanding your tolerance for discomfort is essential for growthHow to reframe tension and discomfort as signs of transformationWhy “the messy middle” is where confidence and self-trust are builtHow to move through people-pleasing and fear of judgmentWhat it really means to take ownership of your life and healing For presale details about the Not Too Sensitive Club, DM me on Instagram ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@lifebyalissa⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠!

    217. How to Stop Feeling Self-Conscious for Being Different Than Other People

    In this episode, Alissa talks about why comparison and imagined judgment keep you from enjoying the things you love—and how owning your values (not everyone else’s) is the shortcut to feeling steady, confident, and truly free. Inspired by a conversation with a new 1:1 client, Alissa digs into how small decisions become litmus tests for self-worth. She shares honest, everyday examples and offers a simple perspective shift. When you know what you value and own it without apology, you stop performing for other people and start living from the inside out. What You’ll Learn Why your insecurities make you assume everyone is judging you (and how that distorts reality)A practical perspective flip: own your choices instead of apologizing for themHow clarity about values cuts through comparison and quiets second-guessingWhen a mindset shift isn’t enough—and how inner work (healing self-worth) helps you actually stay confidentWhere to go next: tools and courses that help HSPs build unshakable self-worth Take your first step to reclaiming your inner peace and self-worth with the External Validation Cleanse Uncover your sneaky internal belief that’s stopping you from being your most confident self TAKE The FREE Shadow Archetype Quiz NOW Learn my 6-step process for managing & neutralizing your triggers as an HSP in our FREE UN-Botherable Workshop!

    215. THIS Is What's Blocking You From Using Your Emotional Intelligence As A Strength

    In this episode, Alissa dives into one of the biggest blocks highly sensitive people face: insecurity. She explores how self-doubt and second-guessing can cloud your emotional intelligence—turning what should be a powerful superpower into a source of hypervigilance and overthinking.

She shares how doing the inner work of healing old wounds allows you to show up with clean energy, hold space for others, and leverage your sensitivity as the gift it truly is.
