Sensitive.

There’s a part of every transition where you’re no longer who you were, but you’re not fully who you’re becoming yet. That space can feel uncomfortable, unclear, and hard to explain. In this episode, I’m joined by Mel Glaze to talk about the liminal space and how to move through it in a way that keeps you connected to yourself. We talk about: Why this phase can feel so intense in the body Staying with yourself when discomfort rises Understanding what you need and how to access it The kind of support that actually helps How this impacts your relationships A parts-based lens for understanding inner conflict Meeting coping patterns without judgment The real potential that exists inside this phase If you’re in the middle of a transition right now, this conversation will meet you there. — Mel Glaze is a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist Associate, peer mentor, and founder of Crosscurrent Counseling, a Washington State practice specializing in neurodivergent-affirming therapy for individuals, couples, and families. Her work blends narrative, relational, and values-based approaches to help people navigate identity, grief, and life transitions — with a particular focus on BIPOC, LGBTQIA2S+, and mixed-neurotype individuals and relationships.   Website: https://crosscurrentcounseling.com/     If you want support navigating your own threshold, you can learn more about working with me here: https://www.kimkimballcoaching.com Threshold Mapping Day — A full day of asynchronous support on Signal for $150.

There comes a point in your work where something starts to feel off. You might not have words for it yet, but you can feel it. In this episode, I’m joined by Tami Sasson to talk about what it looks like when your work begins to unravel, and how that can lead you back to yourself. We talk about: The early pull toward this kind of work Burnout, illness, and the body stepping in Overgiving and losing yourself in the work Finding your own edges again Building work that actually supports you Relating to your work as a practice Trusting that there is something on the other side Why your work shifts when you do If you’re questioning your work right now or feeling a disconnect you can’t quite explain, this conversation will meet you there. Tami is a former somatic psychotherapist and writer of Holding the Thread who now holds spaces for people ready to move beyond healing and into the sacred art of living. She works with the neurocomplex and highly sensitive, guiding the shift from self-fixing into expression, wholeness, and a life that truly holds and supports them.

What happens when the life you built stops working, and pushing through would require abandoning yourself? In this episode, I’m joined by Kate Swoboda—a phenomenal coach, my mentor, and the person who taught me how to coach. Kate is the founder of the Credentialed Life Coach Collective and the host of The Craft of Coaching Podcast. Kate shares a deeply honest story of a season marked by burnout, values misalignment, isolation, and painful family dynamics followed by the courage it took to stop pushing, tell the truth, let help in, and choose herself. This conversation explores what it means to listen to your body, set boundaries that change everything, grieve relationships that can’t meet you, and return to a life that actually feels like home. This episode is for anyone standing at a threshold—where effort no longer works, rest doesn’t restore, and something honest is asking to be named. In this episode, we explore: The “small, reasonable compromises” that quietly lead to burnout When high performance becomes self-abandonment How environment and isolation impact the nervous system Why stability on paper isn’t the same as being okay in your body Letting help in when you’ve been avoiding it Anticipatory grief and the reality of going no contact What becomes possible when you stop negotiating with what hurts Kate Swoboda helps people stop waiting to feel brave and start practicing courage—now. As creator of YourCourageousLife.com, Director of the ICF-accredited Certified Life Coach Collective, and author of The Courage Habit (endorsed by several New York Times best-selling authors), she’s built a movement around unlearning fear patterns and creating courage as a habit. Named a “Top 10 Coach to Watch” by LA Weekly, Kate has been a frequent podcast guest, and her work on the psychology of courage has been featured in Forbes, Entrepreneur, USA Today, and the BBC. Kate also hosts the Your Courageous Life podcast and Craft of Coaching podcasts. Her teaching draws on the psychology of courage and behavioral science to help people break fear patterns and let the truth of who they are on the inside become how they live on the outside.

What if alignment isn’t about becoming more polished, but more bare? In this episode of Sensitive., Kim is joined by mystic soul doula Kirsten Kelly for a spacious, intimate conversation about life as initiation. Together, they explore how choosing alignment again and again often strips away identity, conditioning, and protection, inviting repeated cycles of death and rebirth that shape us into our truest selves. They speak candidly about surrender, the fear and necessity of the void, and what it means to let life continually kill and resurrect us—through birth, marriage, relocation, and rebuilding from the ground up. This episode is an offering for anyone standing at a threshold, grieving what no longer fits, or learning how to trust themselves when the path forward is still unseen.

AI is evolving fast—but what if, instead of pulling us away from our humanity, it could bring us closer to it? In this episode, I’m joined by Emmy-award-winning producer and conscious tech leader Natalie MacNeil to explore how we can use AI ethically, intentionally, and in alignment with our deepest values. We talk about what it means to collaborate with technology through the lens of embodiment, nervous system awareness, and creative sovereignty—especially as highly sensitive and neurodivergent entrepreneurs. Together, we explore: How AI can actually restore balance between the masculine and feminine in business and culture Why ethical AI use starts with consciousness, not tools How automation can free us from overwork and help us return to our humanity What embodied, carbon-aware AI integration can look like day-to-day Ways AI can support executive function, sensory load, and creativity cycles The quiet stigma of using AI in coaching or therapy—and how to reframe it How to know when the soul is missing from AI-generated content What Natalie will never outsource to AI (and why) Whether you’re AI-curious or AI-cautious, this conversation invites you to soften the binary of “good” or “bad” technology and instead build a relationship with it that honors your humanity, your body, and the earth. Natalie MacNeil is a Futurist, Emmy Award-winning media entrepreneur, and creator of AI Dream Team™.  She teaches purpose-driven entrepreneurs how to collaborate with AI ethically, strategically, and creatively—without losing their voice or values. She has been listed on the Levo 100 as a "transformer of our generation" and featured by Inc. as one of "27 women leaders changing the world."

What if your business had a spirit of its own — a living presence you could connect with for guidance, clarity, and support? In this episode, I sit down with shamanic practitioner Laura Horton-Ludwig to explore the profound ways entrepreneurs can deepen their relationship with their businesses. We talk about Laura’s journey into shamanic practice, the care she took around appropriation, and why the steady drumbeat is central to her work. From there, we dive into how shamanic practice intersects with entrepreneurship — and why listening to the spirit of your business can be foundational before you even think about strategy. Together, we explore: Laura’s journey to becoming a shamanic practitioner and her approach to practicing with integrity How her shamanic work became connected with entrepreneurs and business owners Why every business has its own consciousness or aliveness What it means to connect with the spirit of your business — and the benefits of doing so How this practice can ground you before or while engaging with traditional business strategy I share my own experience of connecting with the spirit of my business  Simple ways to begin building a relationship with your business spirit today This conversation is for anyone craving a deeper, more soulful way of leading their business — one that feels alive, relational, and guided.   Rev. Laura Horton-Ludwig is a spiritual director, coach, shamanic practitioner, and Unitarian Universalist minister who has a unique perspective on how spirituality can support highly sensitive entrepreneurs because of her background, first as an entrepreneur and highly sensitive person herself, who draws on shamanic journeying and other spiritual practices to help her partner with the spirit of her business, so it can grow and evolve organically the way it wants to. Laura has also served as a highly sensitive congregational minister for 20 years—or in other words, a constantly shifting mix of CEO, creative content producer, public speaker, emergency responder, counselor, and justice activist. And today, she’s the only person in the world (as far as she knows!) who coaches highly sensitive clergy leaders on how to craft ways of leading that honor their sensitive souls.    Resources & Links Mentioned: Learn more about Laura's Partnering with the Spirit of Your Business program and get a special discount just for podcast listeners: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1dOW4g0vt7LQfibuv5OfLzCliu9a9eCxt/view?usp=sharing   Download Laura's free ebook Conversations with Spirit to learn more about shamanic journeying (plus start receiving weekly-ish email reflections on spirituality and announcements about new offerings): https://laurahortonludwig.com/free-offerings/  A Gentle Invitation: If this episode stirs something in you, I invite you to explore what it would feel like to be in relationship with your business instead of constantly pushing it.

In this conversation with Katja Markelova, we explore the surprising ways that many “trauma-informed” spaces can unintentionally create more shame, fear, and disempowerment. From the myth of “safe spaces,” to the culture of hypervigilance and endless rules, we unpack how these dynamics can leave people feeling fragile and infantilized rather than free and empowered. Together, we explore: Why hypervigilance in trauma-informed spaces often increases shame and fear What to create instead of a so-called “safe space” How to honor real struggles with agency without disempowering people Signs that a community is shame-centric (and how to spot them) What it actually means to hold a non-dogmatic space Katja’s one guiding rule for her containers — and why it matters How all of this connects to cancel culture, difference, and staying in relationship This is a rich, provocative conversation for anyone craving community and leadership that fosters true capacity, agency, and connection — not more fear. Katja Markelova is a seasoned practitioner, educator and creator of the Tales of Bodyverse platform and the professional training Imaginal Body where she teaches human condition through resonance and field dynamics. Trained extensively in somatic trauma resolution, quantum fields, and folklore as somatic maps, Katja developed the "Felt Imaginal Architectural Construction" method - a process that naturally dissolves even most sticky and heavy patterns while building capacity for Effortless, Effective, and Efficient Life Artistry, opening pathways to equanimity and previously unavailable alternatives.

And if you’re ready to experiment with expression in a supportive space, come join us inside The Visibility Lab. It’s where you’ll get to play with your voice, share your ideas, and build your visibility rhythm without pressure or performance.

For HSP and ND entrepreneurs, visibility is often one of the tenderest parts of business. You’ve built offers you believe in. You’ve worked with clients you love. And still, showing up can feel like too much — or not enough. Maybe you overthink every word before hitting “publish.” Maybe you’ve been quiet because showing up feels like a performance. Or maybe you post often but keep your real perspective, artistry, or quirks off the table — hiding in plain sight. If that sounds familiar, you’re not broken. Your nervous system is simply protecting you. In this episode, we’ll explore: -Why visibility often feels wobbly (and why it’s not about mindset). -The difference between performing and authentic expression. -What “hiding in plain sight” looks like. -The ripple effects of safe visibility. -A short reflection to notice your body’s response to being seen. We’ll also talk about The Visibility Lab — a 4-week guided experiment designed to help you practice visibility in ways that feel safe, light, and playful. Through short audios, playful prompts, and a private space where you can safely practice sharing your opinions, posts, and artistry — without the pressure of performance — before bringing it into the wider world, you’ll build the body-memory that says: “I can share, and I’m okay.”   ✨ Enrollment is open now for $75, and your spot includes a free invitation for a biz bestie. We begin October 6th. 👉 Learn more and join here: https://www.kimkimballcoaching.com/visibility-lab-for-sensitive-entrepreneurs Resources & Links: Join The Visibility Lab Instagram Website: kimkimballcoaching.com

Ep. 37 – What Becomes Possible When You Build a Business Around Your Blueprint What if your business felt like an extension of your essence — rooted in your values, your energy, your brilliance, and your actual needs? In this episode, I share the deeper why behind The Sustainable Growth Sanctuary — a 6-month, high-touch mastermind for HSP and neurodivergent business owners who are ready to grow with more clarity, capacity, and joy. We explore what becomes available when you stop trying to fit your business into someone else’s mold, and instead start building it around your unique blueprint. You’ll hear more about: What it means to lead from your nervous system, not just your strategy How honoring your capacity and desires actually supports growth Why community and belonging can be the key to unlocking sustainable success What it looks like to integrate shadow in leadership, without shame How body-led decision-making transforms your business from the inside out Whether you’re craving more spaciousness, aliveness, or alignment in your work, this conversation offers a glimpse of what’s possible when your business is built to honor you.   🌀 Ready to join us? Applications for The Sustainable Growth Sanctuary are now open.

Episode 36: The Hidden Reasons Your Business Feels Unsustainable as a Sensitive or Neurodivergent Entrepreneur If you’re a highly sensitive or neurodivergent business owner, chances are your business might look like it’s “working” from the outside — but doesn’t always feel that way from the inside. In this solo episode, I walk you through the two most common reasons why your business might feel unsustainable, even if it’s technically successful: ✨ You’re building without your blueprint — following someone else’s formula, without honoring your energy, capacity, sensory needs, or actual desires ✨ You’ve been pushing through resistance instead of learning to partner with yourself — leaving you in a cycle of burnout, shame, or self-doubt These are the foundational areas we work with inside The Sustainable Growth Sanctuary, and I’m sharing more about how addressing them can transform your business from something you’re surviving... into something that supports you. You’ll hear: Why common business strategies backfire for HSPs and ND entrepreneurs What “working with your blueprint” really means (and why it matters) The cost of forcing yourself through fear, shame, and visibility wounds How your business can start giving you energy — instead of draining it Why deep community and nervous-system-safe growth matter If you’ve been craving a new way of doing business — one rooted in your truth, your pacing, and your lived experience — this is for you.

In this expansive episode, I’m joined by Katja Markelova — practitioner, guide, and multidimensional thinker whose work weaves together the morphogenic, ancestral, archetypal, and vibrational fields. Katja shares how she sees business not as a structure to force yourself into, but as a living field to attune to. We explore how the felt sense can guide us into clarity, what happens when we untangle unseen threads like projection and misalignment, and why she doesn’t believe in “blocks” — only deeper patterns wanting to be met. She also speaks to the liberating impact of leaving Instagram, choosing Telegram as her space of expression, and how marketing becomes effortless when it flows from coherence rather than strategy. In this conversation, we explore: • What it means to work within vibrational and mythic fields • The role of projection in business outcomes — and how to dissolve it • Why “blocks” may be a misdiagnosis of something more intelligent • Untangling as a way into new timelines and possibilities • How the felt sense can reveal what’s really going on beneath resistance • Horizontal leadership, client friendship, and dissolving hierarchy • Bringing your wild, whole self into business and marketing This is a rich conversation for anyone drawn to a deeper, more multidimensional experience of entrepreneurship — especially if you’ve never quite resonated with surface-level strategy. Katja Markelova is a seasoned practitioner, educator and creator of the Tales of Bodyverse platform and the professional training Imaginal Body where she teaches human condition through resonance and field dynamics. Trained extensively in somatic trauma resolution, quantum fields, and folklore as somatic maps, Katja developed the "Felt Imaginal Architectural Construction" method - a process that naturally dissolves even most sticky and heavy patterns while building capacity for Effortless, Effective, and Efficient Life Artistry, opening pathways to equanimity and previously unavailable alternatives.   📌 Learn more about Katja’s work: Katja's Telegram Channel Katja's Free Course, Oracle Body   🎧 Listen now and subscribe to Sensitive to explore more conversations for sensitive and neurodivergent business owners.   Get Involved: 1:1 Sustainable Growth Private Coaching: a personalized container for sensitive entrepreneurs ready to grow with clarity, calm, and nervous system support.

What if your relationship with money was no longer a source of shame, stress, or confusion—but a place of clarity, healing, and empowerment? In this episode, I sit down with Bari Tessler, financial therapist and author of The Art of Money, to explore how somatic practices, emotional intelligence, and nervous system awareness can transform the way we engage with money—especially for highly sensitive and neurodivergent entrepreneurs.

What if the key to thriving as a sensitive or neurodivergent entrepreneur wasn’t more mindset work — but a recalibration of your nervous system itself? In this profound episode of The Sensitive. Podcast, I sit down with Michelle Dowker — naturopathic doctor, research lover, and breakthrough thinker in the world of subconscious healing for sensitive leaders. Michelle shares her discovery around differential susceptibility — a trait common in HSP and ND folks that can either keep them stuck in survival or launch them into thriving, depending on the environment and internal calibration. We explore: The neuroscience behind survival mode (RAS, DMN & unconscious programming) Why even supportive environments may not be enough to help you thrive What “calibrating for success” looks like in real life How flow state differs for sensitive, neurodivergent brains The critical role HSPs/NDs play in what Michelle calls “the 4th Turning” This conversation is both science-backed and soul-nourishing — and a must-listen for any sensitive business owner wondering why things still feel hard… and how to make them feel lighter.   Michelle Dowker works with sensitive, deep-thinking, high-performing entrepreneurs and professionals who’ve evolved—and want their work to evolve with them. Through her signature Vantage Success Method, she guides clients from deep clarity on who they truly are and what’s next, to rewiring old survival conditioning, and stepping into purpose-led mastery that feels fulfilling, liberating, and wildly impactful. Her work blends intuitive insight, neurobiology, and soul-aligned strategy—so clients can flourish and lead from their truest self.   Michelle's Links: Free guidebook—The astrology patterns of gifted, sensitive, and neurodivergent leaders   Inner Purpose Podcast   Facebook   Instagram   If you found this podcast helpful, please give it a 5 star review and share it with others who might benefit so we can help more HSP and neurodivergent business owners!

In this heartfelt and vulnerable episode, I sit down with the radiant Madison Morrigan — a coach, mystic, and deeply expressive voice in the world of somatic healing and self-liberation. Madison and I reconnect after our shared experience in her Rising Sovereign mastermind — a space where neither of us yet knew we were autistic. What follows is a rich, nuanced conversation about late-diagnosis autism, the power of shame alchemy, and what it means to reclaim joy and expression in a world that so often demands we shrink ourselves. In this episode, we explore: Madison’s journey of realizing they are autistic, and how that has shaped their life and work Why understanding shame through a neuroscience lens is key for neurocomplex folks The nuance of somatic healing and what’s often misunderstood in the online space Embodying healing through daily rituals, aesthetic expression, and home design Shifting from “fixing ourselves” to orienting toward goodness and beauty The hidden connection between neurodivergence and high-control religion Allowing joy, bubbliness, and full expression — even when it draws criticism A few favorite moments include: Madison’s reframing of shame as a somatic process, not a moral flaw The soulful simplicity of making tea as a healing practice Their honest reflection on being groomed by high-control religious systems Madison's Links: Website The Fortress Shame Alchemy Workshop Instagram   If you found this video helpful, please give it a 5 star review and share it with others who might benefit so we can help more HSP and neurodivergent business owners!

In this episode of Sensitive., I sit down with introvert confidence coach Amber Hansel for a heart-centered conversation about how confidence isn't something you're born with — it's something you build. Amber shares her journey into coaching, her unique Harmony Method, and how introverted entrepreneurs can lead powerfully without pretending to be extroverted. We also explore how understanding your introvert type, setting boundaries based on your true energetic needs, and moving from surface-level networking to authentic engagement can be a game-changer in your business. What We Talk About: Amber’s path to becoming an introvert confidence coach Why confidence is a skill (not a trait) and how to build it The 4 introvert types and how they differ Why traditional business formulas don’t work for introverts, HSPs, or neurodivergents Amber’s “Harmony Method” for aligned growth Common mindset blocks introverted business owners face — and how to reframe them How to create meaningful, authentic connections as an introvert The overlooked power of being an introverted leader Meet Amber Hansel, your introverted BFF and confidence coach helping business owners align with their authentic selves, expand visibility, and connect deeply with their audience. With a background in lead generation and a gentle, empowering approach, Amber proves you don’t have to be loud to make waves. Her mission is to help you grow your business with clarity and confidence by turning intentional, authentic connections into real results—all while staying true to who you are.   Connect with Amber: Website Instagram   If you found this episode helpful, please give it a 5 star review and share it with others who might benefit so we can help more HSP and neurodivergent business owners!

In this beautiful conversation, I sit down with therapist, author, and mother Lisa Olivera to explore the deep themes of acceptance, creativity, and self-trust. I’ve been a long time admirer of Lisa and her work, which has greatly impacted my own. I hope you are as deeply nourished by listening to this conversation as I was having it. We talk about: Lisa’s personal journey with radical self-acceptance The heart behind her new book When the Ache Remains How she finds beauty amidst the unfixable realities of life Navigating the evolution of your voice after publishing your work Finding creative pockets amidst the demands of motherhood The courage it takes to share authentically online — and to keep parts of your life sacred How photography weaves into her life as an act of presence and artistry What “right-sized ambition” means — and how it shifts from proving to serving Letting go of the need to prove yourself and moving into deeper service This conversation is tender, rich, and full of permission to meet yourself exactly where you are.   Lisa Olivera is a writer, therapist, and creative who shares work centered around radical acceptance, cultivating compassion, and integrating our stories and full humanity. She holds a Master’s degree in Counseling Psychology from Dominican University, where she received the Dr. Robert Schukraft award for Inspirational Leadership.

In this episode of Sensitive., I sit down with someone I deeply admire and have quietly followed for years: Alexandra Covucci, a leadership coach who not only teaches transformation, but embodies it. Whether she’s taking a sabbatical from social media to re-root in inner stillness, or leaning gently into the work of intimacy and self-trust, Alex lives what she teaches. Her leadership is not performative — it’s devotional. And in this conversation, we explore what it really means to lead ourselves first. We talk about: How Alex defines leadership (and why it starts within) The most pivotal moments in her own growth as a business owner What high-capacity, highly sensitive leaders struggle with most The truth about self-partnering as the foundation of self-leadership Why strategy alone won’t save you — and how to come home to yourself instead The quiet patterns that hold so many brilliant leaders back How to redefine success so it actually feels like success This one is for the big-hearted leaders, the deep feelers, the sensitive visionaries. The ones walking their talk — even when no one’s watching. 🌿 Learn more about Alex and her work:  Alexandra is a leadership and embodiment coach who helps ambitious, high-capacity individuals succeed without self-abandonment. With over a decade of experience in leadership coaching and nervous system work, she supports leaders in building unshakable self-trust, communicating with clarity, turning emotional and energetic obstacles into fuel for their fullest potential, and creating sustainable success from the inside out.

In today’s episode, I’m joined by the brilliant Sara Lobkovich for a conversation about setting goals that actually support your capacity, not override it. Sara is a coach and strategist who speaks candidly about being twice exceptional, having a trauma-impacted brain, and building a business as a deeply introverted human. Together, we explore: What “non-toxic” goal-setting really means How intrinsic, “selfish” goals lead to deeper alignment Why this approach is especially supportive for neurodivergent business owners How to shift from achievement obsession to growth and progress The power of coherence over consistency A step-by-step way to set shame-free goals rooted in who you are The connection between non-toxic productivity and nervous system-informed work This conversation is full of practical insights and gentle reframes for anyone who’s ever felt like traditional goal-setting just... doesn’t fit.   Sara is a strategist, Objectives and Key Results (OKRs) Master Coach, and Nationally Board-Certified Health and Wellness Coach (NBC-HWC) who works with purpose-led organizations and people whose identity, cognitive style, or values put them at odds with mainstream business culture. I help people and teams shift strategy from overwhelming to achievable so they can learn their way to achieving their big, bold goals.   Sara's Links: -Buy her Book:https://youarestrategist.com -Join her next live intensive: Strategy During Chaos: https://findrc.co/3RkYOHK -Connect via LinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/in/saralobkovich -She is @saralobkovich on most social media platforms.   If you found this podcast helpful, please give it a 5 star reveiw and share it with others who might benefit so we can help more HSP and neurodivergent business owners thrive!

Almost every single one of my clients and business owners that I talk to want to be able to have a sustainable business: to be able to run their business in a way that honors their body, their capacity, their season of life, the way their brain functions best, and the amount of time they have. They want their business to be stable, reliable, and financially successful-without compromising their wellbeing or their leisure time. And while most folks have a deep desire for a sustainable business, they often dismiss it as a pipe dream if they are highly sensitive or neurodivergent. In this solo episode of the Sensitive. Podcast I discuss: -the hidden reason building a sustainable business may feel out of reach for you as a HSP or neurodivergent business owner -I give a personal example in my own business that helped me to shift out of this and into honoring my sensitivity, capacity, and season of life in my business -what I think the most important work for us is as HSP or neurodivergent business owners in order to build a sustainable business -why HSP and neurodivergent business owners may miss opportunities to do things differently and more sustainably in their business Let’s be real—most of what’s out there about running a business was not designed for HSPs or neurodivergent entrepreneurs. The push harder, do more, override your body approach? It doesn’t work for us. But that doesn’t mean you can’t have a successful, thriving business. It just means you need to build it in a way that actually works for your unique wiring. Inside my 1:1 coaching, I help my clients: ✅ Set boundaries and say no without spiraling into guilt. ✅ Create financial stability without sacrificing their well-being. ✅ Move through fear of rejection so they can finally show up fully. ✅ Get out of urgency and overthinking, and into ease and clarity. ✅ Take real, aligned action without slipping into burnout or endless inner work loops. If this is the shift you’ve been craving, I have three 1:1 coaching spots open right now. Click the link to learn more and apply, and let’s see if this is the right fit for you.

In this solo podcast episode, I discuss the emotional roller coaster of business ownership. I dive into: -examples of the "emotional roller coaster" of business ownership -the difference between supporting the emotional roller coaster with "mindset work" vs. somatics -the 2 key pieces that mindset work misses, and why it holds you back -the reasons I prefer somatics with my clients, and why I believe it's more effective than mindset work. Emotional activation and nervous system activation is a part of business ownership that never "goes away"; it continues to morph, evolve, and change depending on your stage of business. That means that learning how to support yourself through it is key-and the earlier you can learn that, the better!

Most of the business world screams MORE and FASTER and BIGGER from the rooftops. As highly sensitive or neurodivergent business owners, it’s especially important that we allow ourselves to honor our bodies and move slowly in our businesses and lives, but oftentimes we’ve only ever heard how doing so is a detriment. What if moving slowly (and counterculturally) in our business was actually highly advantageous? In this solo episode of the Sensitive. Podcast, I explore: -5 reasons that slow business isn't just advantageous for you as a HSP or neurodivergent business owner, but also for your business -why slow business is more sustainable and allows you to be around for the long haul in your business -why slow business of often more ethical -how slow business allows more opportunities to be aligned with your values. I hope illustrating some of the benefits of slow business, especially as a HSP or neurodivergent business owner, has helped you become more confident in doing things your way, even if it is counter cultural. I’d love to hear how this concept of slow business lands with you. Send me a DM over on Instagram!

As a somatic leadership coach, you'll hear me talk about nervous system regulation a lot. While nervous system regulation is undeniably important, remaining "regulated" and only being able to take action in your business if you're perfectly "regulated" has become the new form of perfectionism. In this solo episode of the Sensitive. podcast, I discuss a more helpful definition of what nervous system regulation actually is, and what to focus on instead in order to help you make slow, steady, sustainable progress in your business.   If you found this episode helpful, please give it a 5 star review and share it with others who might benefit.
