40. Being a Highly Sensitive Man

My guest today is James Lawton! James is a proud HSP with an INFP personality type. During the week, he's a chemist by day and a loving dad to three amazing children by night, who continuously redefine his understanding of parenthood in all the best ways. His life's journey, from adolescence through adulthood, has been a never ending pursuit for answers, seeking to understand why he perceives and experiences the world in ways that often set him apart from those around him, especially with other men. It's a journey that has not only shaped his life but has also provided him with profound insights into the beauty of human emotions and connections. James talks about discovering that he's highly sensitive (20 years ago!), his experiences as a highly sensitive man, and gives tips and advice for other highly sensitive men. We talk about how TV shows and movies affect us, feeling "different" as a child, being a highly sensitive parent and having highly sensitive parents, and the benefits of being a highly sensitive parent to a highly sensitive child.
