Can emotional pain be a pathway to personal growth for Highly Sensitive People? In today's episode I wanted to share a current struggle and my pain process for moving through the feelings of shock, powerlessness, anger, triggered abandonment wounds, hurt, and sadness. I highlight how to observe vs. absorb someone else's pain for HSPs, recovering codependents, people pleasers, care takers and survivors. I hope this episode shows you how to move through your own pain vs. getting bogged down, and see the strength that is most definitely within you. This episode explores the essential role of experiencing and processing emotions in improving mental health and healing. We address the stigma surrounding emotions, the transformative power of pain, and strategies for setting boundaries and practicing self-compassion.
