French Short Film Highlights Highly Sensitive Person Trait

French Short Film Highlights Highly Sensitive Person Trait

In this powerful French short film, "Peau de Poulet" (translated: Chicken Skin) by Francois Boulet, he articulates through images, video, voice, script, and music a compelling case for claiming sensitivity as a superpower in just two minutes and twenty seconds--an incredible feat and gift to the world.... Read More

It can be frustrating for HSP men and women because they aren't quite sure what's wrong--they just feel different, or outside the bounds of feeling semi-normal in their families and careers. One thing is true: when you face midlife head-on, you can tap into your midlife HSP power in ways non-HSPs cannot.... Read More
