Highly Sensitive Women
Episode 20 season 4: Biz Cush on Sensitivity
If you’re easily overwhelmed, listen to this episode of Awaken Your Wise Woman as host Elizabeth Cush talks about highly sensitive women.
“This part of me that just gets overwhelmed feels probably like I’m in third grade.”
Show Notes:
Sometimes you just need a break—but we don’t always give ourselves permission to do that, even though we might need some extra time to process information or emotions. We might just need to rest. It’s important for everyone, no matter what we do, but for some of us it’s absolutely essential. As the Awaken Your Wise Woman podcast heads into its summer hiatus, host Biz Cush, LCPC, a licensed professional therapist, founder of Progression Counseling in Annapolis, Md., and a life coach for highly sensitive women, wraps up Season Four and provides a sneak preview of Season Five content with a heartfelt talk about what it means to be a highly sensitive woman. She shares her own personal experiences as a child and an adult, the insights she has gained and the strategies she uses to navigate as a highly sensitive mid-life woman in an often overwhelming world.
