What drives someone to seek a life without alcohol? In this episode of 'Compassionate Conversations', Esther Kane, a seasoned psychotherapist and highly sensitive person (HSP), shares her unique approach to helping individuals find their voice. If you've ever been labelled as too quiet or sensitive, this episode might just resonate with you.
Esther's nearly 30 years of experience with HSPs brings a wealth of understanding to the table, offering a compassionate, body-aware method for expressing oneself without the pressure to be louder or more assertive. Esther dives into the common struggles faced by HSPs, like early family conditioning and trauma, which often lead to a suppressed voice. Through poignant examples, she illustrates how societal expectations can misinterpret quietness as weakness, while in reality, it's a sign of deep empathy and emotional intelligence.
She introduces practical steps to help listeners reconnect with their inner voice, create emotional safety, and release the habit of people-pleasing. A standout segment features Esther's 'Gentle Voice Reclamation Practice', a trauma-informed exercise designed to empower HSPs to express themselves safely and authentically. By the end of the episode, you'll have gained insights into how quietness doesn't equate to powerlessness but rather holds a unique strength waiting to be harnessed.
So grab a cup of tea, find a cosy spot, and prepare to be inspired by the gentle power of finding your voice.
