183 Embrace Your HSP Difference

Growing up highly sensitive, many of us missed the opportunity of individuation, or differentiation at a young age – what Margaret Mahler refers to as “hatching”. Because of this, we learned to cope and often hide our highly sensitive difference. We developed coping mechanisms of pushing or hiding (or moving back and forth between pushing and hiding) as a way to adapt rather than embrace our uniqueness and differences. Although this an understandable response we developed to keep ourselves safe when we were younger, now it’s time to stop feeling confused and believing you need to deny who you really are in order to be successful in business and life. Everything is now meant to be done differently.   In this podcast episode, I read an excerpt from my book “Different”, where I vulnerably share my struggle to write my book. I came to realize I was guided to write it because I was meant to teach HSPs not just how to market and sell in their business differently, but how to step up and lead as a highly sensitive to create greater impact (and income) with a lot less effort through these extraordinary times. I also discuss Margaret Mahler’s concept of hatching – a process of separation, individuation and differentiation – and the four sub-phases in this process. I go into more detail on the differentiation phase and speak to how this specifically impacts highly sensitives and our unique journey in this world as HSPs in business and leadership.   “I knew I had been training for the exceptional times of 2020 for my whole life.” – Heather Dominick Listen and Learn: 7:38: How to embrace your HSP difference 9:45: Can you stop being overwhelmed by others’ emotions 11:40: How to define hatching 12:37: What are the four sub-phases of hatching 14:04: Why was the concept of hatching controversial 15:37: What happens when you are highly sensitive but your parents are not 17:42: What is the more important area for focus and growth right now 18:12: How to connect with what inspires you“Quote.” – Guest Name / Heather Dominick “It’s time to stop pretending your intuition is less valuable than logic.” – Heather Dominick Links and Resources: Get your copy of Heather’s book DIFFERENT: The Highly Sensitive Leadership Revolution: http://www.differentthebook.com Get your copy of the HSE Training Kit: Survive to Thrive: http://www.shiftfromsurvivetothrive.com Get your copy of the HSE Assessment and Success Guide: http://www.myhsetype.com Learn more about this episode of Business Miracles at https://www.businessmiracles.com/183
