Would you like to be more visible in the world? … but everything inside you screams “Stop! You won’t be safe! People won’t understand me! They never have.”

Many of you will connect with this email that I got today:

I never realized that I was a highly sensitive individual, but I heard an interview with you, and your words hit me deeply and profoundly. For once, after 49 years, I realized there really isn’t anything wrong with me – I’m just a highly sensitive person – and that has helped me immensely! I am starting to come to terms with that knowledge and I am learning to stop beating myself up.

I have felt that I have lived most of my life at 1/2 speed – afraid to be who I am and use my gifts and talents – too often felt I couldn’t do things – afraid to fail so I held myself back. I have made some progress in my life- I can’t say that my ENTIRE life has been a waste, but I am at a point in my life where I am feeling stuck in fear and have been looking for a partner to help me get past this. Your work, and your deep understanding of my nature feels like it would be a great benefit to my ability to move forward in my life.
