The Happy HSP Podcast
Are you a highly sensitive person (HSP) who often feels overwhelmed, misunderstood, or out of place in the world around you?

The Happy HSP Podcast
Self-Acceptance and Stepping into Your Power as an HSP
Today, I’m joined by psychotherapist, author, and host of the Sensitive Stories podcast April Snow. We explore how to embrace your inner landscape and build confidence and clarity, all why honoring who you are — fully and unapologetically. We talk boundaries, empathy, and how to find the keys that gently unlock your best self and inner growth.
April shares:
- Her journey toward self-acceptance as an HSP.
- What shifted when she stopped trying to be “less sensitive.”
- How highly sensitive nervous systems process the world differently.
- Tools and reminders for grounding, clarity, and inner safety.
- Real examples of HSP leadership, confidence, and courage.
- How reframing sensitivity can lead to empowerment rather than overwhelm.
Topics covered:
- How societal conditioning affects HSP self-worth.
- Boundaries, energy management, and external expectations.
- Empowered leadership and confidence as an HSP.
- Why authenticity increases clarity, creativity, and impact.
- Real-life examples of HSPs thriving in work and career.
