Understanding Sensitivity: Introverts vs. Highly Sensitive People with Esther Kane

When we look at high sensitivity versus introversion, the main difference that I can see between introverts and hsps is this: not all introverts are highly sensitive. Therefore we cannot lump introversion and the highly sensitive personality together in all cases.
Ever found yourself wondering if you're an introvert or perhaps a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP)? Esther Kane, a seasoned psychotherapist, unpacks the nuances between these two often-confused traits in this engaging episode of 'Compassionate Conversations'. Drawing from her extensive experience, Esther explains how introverts and HSPs navigate the world differently. While introverts recharge by seeking solitude, HSPs possess a heightened sensitivity to their surroundings due to an exceptionally responsive nervous system.
This episode dives into the distinct ways each group experiences and reacts to stimuli. Esther doesn't just stop at explaining these differences; she offers practical advice and resources for self-assessment. For those who identify as HSPs, she provides tips on how to thrive in an extroverted society that often feels overwhelming. If you're keen to better understand yourself or support a loved one, this episode is packed with valuable insights and strategies.
Tune in to gain a deeper understanding of these unique personality traits and learn how to navigate life more effectively.
