Why Stubborn People Are Actually Genius

14 Sep 2025

Description

Most empaths and highly sensitive people get labeled as stubborn, but this trait might actually be a superpower. Stubbornness gets reframed from negative to positive, examining how HSPs develop this quality as protection in invalidating environments. Narcissistic parents view stubborn children as threats, creating shame around boundaries and independent thinking. Childhood stubbornness often masks deeper needs like safety that adults miss. Positive stubbornness becomes tenacity, authenticity, and leadership backbone for breaking cycles and maintaining values. 🚧 THE BOUNDARIES INTENSIVE:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://EmotionalBadass.com/boundaries⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ CODE: BADASS for $50 off 💖 PATREON: https://Patreon.com/emotionalbadass 👨‍👨 WORK WITH NIKKI 1:1: https://EmotionalBadass.com/coaching 📰 THE BI-WEEKLY WELLNESS NEWSLETTER https://www.EmotionalBadass.com/newsletter⁠⁠ Learn more about your ad choices.
