Sitting with Intense Feelings, AND Noticing What’s Right.
GUEST
Solo episode
EPISODE OVERVIEW
I got my feelings hurt a few times this past week, and it’s been hard. I spent 3 days crying, and it triggered some trauma from my past. This was NOT my baseline, but I was incredibly sensitive and kept getting my feelings hurt. I was also able to feel the connection and support I had at the same time. Intensity can be confused with being hard or not manageable. I talk about ways to manage both the strong feelings, and using tools to get through times that are intense and full of big feelings.
PODCAST HOST

She created the podcast Unapologetically Sensitive to help other HSPs know that they aren’t alone, and that being an HSP has amazing gifts, and some challenges. Patricia works online globally working individually with people, and she teaches Online Courses for HSPs that focus on understanding what it means to be an HSP, self-care, self-compassion, boundaries, perfectionism, mindfulness, communication, and creating a lifestyle that honors us

126 Self-Care for Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents with Dr. Lindsay Gibson
Self-Care for Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents
Dr. Lindsay Gibson, author of Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents, and Recovering from Emotionally Immature Parents talks about self-care in regards to self-confidence, security, self-connection, self-awareness and emotional self-protection.

GUEST

HIGHLIGHTS
Here are some of the questions Dr. Gibson responds to:
Tell us about your most recent book Self Care for Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents . Why did you write this book?
The book has three main sections: what are they, and what can readers expect to get from each topic? Why might adult children of emotionally immature parents (ACEIPs )find these topics especially meaningful?
How do you see sensitivity as a trait possibly affecting a person's functioning in these areas?
Do you see a connection between sensitivity and an ACEIPs feelings of security and self-confidence?
You've mentioned that ACEIPs have been taught not to trust themselves or their self-awareness. Could you talk about this a bit more?
In the book you've talked about the importance of emotional self-protection. Can you explain what that means exactly?
You talk about the crucial importance of a person's inner self-connection. Why do you make that idea such a central focus?
How do these issues affect a person's choices and behaviors in relationship?
