Dark, cold, grey, AND Sensitive!

from Wandering Willow Speaks · host Sam Messersmith and Teri Leigh 💜

🌙 Replay: Cold, Dark, & Sensitive Souls Mercury retrograde, time changes, and gray skies — oh my!In this candid and cozy chat, Sam of Wandering Willow and TeriLeigh of HUSH ~ Highly Unapologetic Sensitive Humans dive into how sensitive and neurodivergent souls feel the shift into the darker season. From tech glitches to chilly bones, they explore what it means to move gently through late autumn’s sensory overload. Together they unpack why this season can feel extra intense — brighter headlights, louder noise, sharper air — and how our bodies and nervous systems crave softness, warmth, and slower rhythms. Sam shares about taking the Monotropism Questionnaire and the insights it gave her into her own sensitivity, while TeriLeigh describes how even the cold can be a mirror for how we process the world. This chat is equal parts laughter, empathy, and validation — a reminder that you’re not alone if you’d rather cocoon under a weighted blanket right now. ✨ Want more of this?Join Sam and TeriLeigh for Candlelit Soulstice Circle, a four-week gathering beginning November 30th at 7:00pm EST/4:00 pm PST to help sensitive souls stay rooted in light through the darkest nights of the year.Four Sundays.
