Religion vs spirituality: A peek into my journey
The Sensitivity Doctor
03/23/23 • 15 min
Jeanne is not religious. This is not a fad statement she shares to illicit attention, and it’s not an admonishment with a caveat that will lead to her to confessing that she is “secretly religious.” It is just plain facts. In this episode she asks the question: Does that change your opinion of her, and if it does, why?
She explores key questions, asking whether her spiritual beliefs makes her lesser than others, a bad mother, a lousy wife, or a bad friend? Does it take away from her life’s journey, her highs and lows, her joys and sorrows?
Join Jeanne as she gives a view into her spiritual life, not in an effort to explain how she indulges in her spirituality, to defend it, or to convince you to see things her way. It’s more of an ode to others like her who may feel the same and are all too familiar with being the lonely oasis in the desert, surrounded by perfect believers. Those who know what it feels like to be secretly (and sometimes not-so-secretly) judged for their lack of religion.

Lessons Learned From Leaders & Bosses
The Sensitivity Doctor
04/20/23 • 16 min
Jeanne makes it clear in this episode that there are lessons to be learnt from both good and bad bosses. She speaks against the notion that there is nothing to be learnt from bad bosses. Jeanne acknowledges that we’ve all had the horrible boss that broke our souls and traumatized us emotionally. Not all leaders are made equal. However, we do learn from them all. Whether this experience was positive or negative, they did, in fact, shape us in some way.
Jeanne has been in the entrepreneurial space for over a decade, and she still holds true to these valuable lessons she learned from the leaders that shaped her into the businesswoman she is today. Not all of these experiences were positive fairy tales, and she had many days when she came home crying and dreading the fact that she needed to go back to “that place” tomorrow. However, she's learned from this. Some of these lessons were extremely hard, but this did not make them any less effective.
Here are the 5 most significant lessons she's learned from previous bosses and other leaders, good and bad, who she worked for and with in her career.

An open letter to Narcissists
The Sensitivity Doctor
02/23/23 • 19 min
Jeanne recently posted an open letter to Narcissists on her blog. If you've ever dealt with a Narcissist in your life, then you know the absolute emotional devastation that this can bring to you. This is intensified when you are perhaps already a person that is afraid of conflict, that prefers to avoid it, and also when you come from a background where you weren't equipped to deal with your emotions properly and you weren't equipped to understand the power of your own strength. So you probably have really bad boundaries.
And like Jeanne, you probably keep finding yourself in situations where you're making friends with the wrong people, you're entering the wrong types of relationships, you're attracting the wrong types of relationships. Each time of course you think it's completely different. And then when it eventually implodes, it's so clear. All of the similarities become so clear. It has been a really difficult thing for Jeanne to deal with the Narcissists in her life, because it usually starts from a young age, and it's usually somebody close to you that acts this way.
Jeanne explores the emotional impact narcissists have had on her life, the consequences of gaslighting, and the power of finding her silent strength.
