Thank you for writing this. Years ago I worked with a business partner who’d been told through childhood that she was too sensitive. I literally said these same words to her “this is your super power” because I saw how she could suggest what might be going on for people to bring the “unsaids” to the surface (we worked as team coaches). I would never have considered the things she suggested as they didn’t enter my head. I also saw how this could be tricky when she projected her own experience onto others, assuming they must be feeling what she was feeling, and that, if it didn’t resonate with them, could be taken badly that she’d somehow got it wrong or said the wrong thing. In the work I do now I’ve seen both ‘sensitive’ people and ‘insensitive’ people (I was in the latter camp!) return to a balance where their innate sensitivity is revealed – which we all have and which for most has just been covered over with confusion of who they think they are and how they think they should behave. The more we remove the confusion and re-sensitise, the more we seem to recognise the impersonal nature of all experience and – paradoxically – feel more connected to what’s needed in each moment than ever before. Here’s to a more sensitive world in the years to come!
