“The world needs more sensitive people showing up fully, especially sensitive women.”
Show Notes:
Where did the summer go? Did you spend time in the mountains, at the beach or beyond? Did you get to spend time outdoors—walking, sunbathing, gardening, forest bathing, relaxing, dining al fresco? Did you take advantage of the season to find ways to take care of yourself? Most important, did you find ways to get to know yourself better and settle into your inner wisdom? In this episode of Awaken Your Wise Woman, host Biz Cush, LCPC, a licensed professional therapist, founder of Progression Counseling in Annapolis, Md., and a life coach for highly sensitive women, shares some of what she experienced during her hiatus from the podcast and what she learned from it. She also talks about what it’s like to be a highly sensitive woman and how to show up as your wise self.
