A rich, layered conversation for anyone walking the path of the creative, the sensitive, and the change-maker.

    47 - The Sobriety Journey as an HSP - in conversation with Kristy Sarausky

    In this powerful and tender episode, we explore the sobriety journey through the lens of being a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP). I’m joined by Kristy Sarausky, who shares her personal experience with quitting alcohol and how sensitivity shaped — and ultimately supported — her path toward healing, self-compassion, and empowerment. We talk about the emotional roots of drinking for HSPs, especially when there's a lack of connection to self, community, and deeper meaning. Together, we dive into the challenges of navigating social life as a non-drinker, the myth that introverts aren't "fun," and how sobriety invites us to rewrite old stories and reclaim our boundaries. Whether you're exploring sobriety, questioning your relationship with alcohol, or simply navigating the world as a sensitive soul, this conversation is here to remind you: you are not alone, and your sensitivity is a strength. In this episode, we explore: Alcohol as an escape for HSPs Lack of connection and meaning as a root of addiction Navigating social events as a sober introvert The belief that sensitive people or introverts aren't fun Setting boundaries and honoring your needs The mother wound and its link to addiction Is rock bottom necessary to quit drinking? Self-compassion and emotional healing Sobriety as a creative and spiritual awakening Creating a supportive environment for recovery To connect and work with Kristy: her website & her instagram To connect and work with me, Rim: my website Say hi on Instagram Watch the interview on YouTube

    46 - Protect Your Energy Like a Ninja (As an HSP Neurodivergent)

    This episode is for you if you’ve ever told yourself: “It’s just once a week.” “Maybe I just need to try harder.” “Why am I so tired after something that was supposed to be fun?” In this honest and tender reflection, I share my own journey with subtle energy drains—from improv classes to social time with friends to even how I was walking my dog. As HSPs and neurodivergent creatives, we often override our needs in the name of “normal,” only to spiral into exhaustion, melancholy, or creative block. You’ll hear: How I recognized the hidden cost of doing too much What overstimulation really steals from us (not just time, but joy)  Why rest isn’t optional—it’s sacred Reflections and boundary questions inspired by Debbie Ford’s 10 questions How all this impacts our ability to create from a place of pleasure If you’ve been questioning your rhythms, your limits, your capacity—this is a gentle reminder that protecting your energy is part of your art. If this resonates and you're ready to explore deeper alignment and creative restoration in a supported space, you're warmly invited to reach out about my spiritual mentorship. Say hello on instagram
