    265: Why healing and health for the highly sensitive person has to look different (and what you should do)

    The mood swings. The fatigue. The anxiety and looping thoughts. The burnout that hits, again and again. The long-term chronic symptoms or autoimmune diagnosis that no one can quite explain (Lyme, mold, long COVID, CFS, MCAS). The disrupted sleep. Migraines. The sudden weight changes. The bloating or digestive issues. The exhaustion. The hormones that feel all over the place.  Why does being a highly sensitive person sometimes feel like your body is betraying you? And what if I told you it wasn’t betraying you: it’s SIGNALING to you. Signaling danger, confusion, protection. And that it doesn’t have to be this way? Once you learn to signal safety to your nervous system and body, with the right nutrition, environment, and nervous system approaches, your body can relax.  That's what I'm discussing in today's podcast, as well as introducing Signals of Safety, my new six-month health and healing small group container that starts January 21.  Signals of Safety is a six-month healing program for highly sensitive people navigating chronic illness, mysterious symptoms, burnout, adrenal and energy issues, and hormonal imbalance. It’s a supportive, science-backed, holistic container where HSPs learn the nutrition, lifestyle, and nervous-system tools that help you rebuild energy, stabilize mood, reduce symptoms, and finally feel safe and steady in your body again. Read more about SoS here, and reach out through the form on that page if it feels like a right fit for you. The New Sensitive podcast is a spin-off of The New Sensitive Substack, a weekly newsletter that helps highly sensitives thrive in body and soul with accessible health, wellness and spiritual practices.

    264: Quitting your job as a spiritual practice

    One of the questions I get asked about most is a combo of "How can I leave my soul-sucking job to start my own creative or healing business?" plus "How can I do this when I don't have a way to bridge the gap the income?" I address this question with the help of Tarot today, because this is a huge theme I see coming for 2026: It's time to quit, re-evaluate, or somehow seriously shift your soul-sucking job, for sure, so you can step into purpose. That message has been coming through loud and clear the last few months.  What if you could view this act of leaving the safety of traditional employment, which terrifies most of us HSPs, as a spiritual practice? Of faith, of trust, of believing you have a divine mission on your heart?  In today's episode, I do a message from your higher selves about leaving your job, and also share 5 reasons I think that quitting your corporate job is one of the most spiritual things you could ever do.

    263: December 2025 intuitive reading for the month ahead: What would it feel like to welcome in ease, joy and authenticity?

    This month’s intuitive reading is an invitation into ease, joy, pleasure, and feminine healing. December carries a soft but powerful energy, one that asks you to stop gripping so tightly and let yourself be supported and have some dang fun. We explore what becomes possible when you stop pushing, stop proving, and start receiving. What if your life got to be easier than you’ve ever allowed? This reading also brings through themes of courage, boldness, and authenticity. As the year closes, you’re being asked to show up as who you really are—not the polished version, not the “safe” version, but the truest, most aligned expression of you. And finally, a message from Eagle arrives with clarity, vision, and higher perspective. Eagle reminds you to rise above the noise, reconnect with your spiritual eyesight, and trust the path unfolding beneath you—even if it doesn’t look linear. Oracle deck used: The Spirit Animal Oracle Deck Reflection prompts for December:  What do you want your inner child to know about how wonderful and magical they are? What do you wish for them in 2026?'If December got to be easy, what would that look like?
