Summary

In this weeks show, we welcome new listeners and will explore various mental health terms used on the show, specifically focusing on Highly Sensitive People (HSP) and ways to understand, embrace, and love our highly sensitive selves. I will discuss topics such as sensory sensitivity, emotional and mental sensitivity, and theories about the cause of high sensitivity. I will also differentiate between introverts and extroverts, and how they recharge and get their energy. Additionally, I will explain the concept of high sensation seeking, which can be confusing for many, but is important to understand and accept for those who fall into this category. Furthermore, I will discuss neurodivergent, an umbrella term for mental or neurological differences, including those on the autism spectrum, and how existentialism has played a role in my mental health journey.

0:00.0	Hello, welcome to emotional badass where Moxie meets Mindful.
0:04.5	I'm your host, Nikki Eisenhower, life coach and psychotherapist, and on today's episode,
0:09.9	I'm going to define some terms that we use on the show.
0:34.1	Music. Hello, y'all.
0:40.6	We have been really experiencing a growth spurt, so I want to welcome new listeners.
0:48.2	The last two weeks, I have released some very personal and vulnerable stories about my life.
0:53.0	I've been talking about how I escaped extreme manipulative abuse.
0:54.2	And I just want to use the moment to really thank you.
0:58.5	And I want you to know that as much as I'm committed to being transparent,
1:02.7	to teach genuinely is my calling,

1:09.5	for me to offer it to you as an example of healing and growth
1:13.5	and what we can overcome. It doesn't mean that it's not scary. And on your path, you're going to face,
1:20.3	you've already faced many scary things too. I don't ever want to make it look or seem like I'm not scared sometimes.

1:41.2	possible rejection, the fear of judgment from our own inner perfectionist that can pick anything apart and focus on the imperfection.
1:51.7	So often in life we are called to feel the fear and move forward anyway.
1:58.0	I want to thank you for the supportive feedback I've already received. It's so easy to hear
2:03.0	all the negative stories about being out there online and on the internet, so much negativity,
2:08.6	so much harshness. But I have had an overwhelmingly beautiful amount of support since the first
