Summary
In this episode, I had the pleasure of interviewing Melissa Schwartz. Melissa was born an intense, sensitive, empathic power seeker. She is an internationally acclaimed author, coach, and public speaker in the field of child development, and she specializes in helping highly sensitive children (and their parents). In this conversation, we talk about what it means to grow up highly sensitive and how we can care for ourselves as highly sensitive adults.
To connect with Melissa, you can visit her online at Sensitive Parenting.
To connect with me (Josephine!), you can visit me online at Purefield or on Instagram. I offer Akashic Record Readings, Sacred Soul Work Readings, and Intuitive Healing for Highly Sensitive Women to clients all over the world.
Thank you so much for listening, and please keep doing your inner work!
