French Short Film Highlights Highly Sensitive Person Trait

French Short Film Highlights Highly Sensitive Person Trait

One of the joys of being a highly sensitive person (HSP) is in using our "superpowers" for good, to champion and highlight not only the HSP trait to raise awareness, but to share our vision and view of the world as a place filled with beauty, hope, and love. Each day, each moment, we have the opportunity to share this superpower and claim our sensitivity as a gift. 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

Tap Into Your Midlife HSP Power (10 Essentials)

While the term midlife is somewhat nebulous, it generally shows up for people between the ages of 35-55. It's not a specific psychological term, it defines the transitional period when an adult feels a shift from being younger to being older. Sometimes this circles around having children hit their late teens, or feeling a sense of discontent or shifting in their careers. 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
