As a highly sensitive person i always thought of suppressing my sensitive nature in my workplace because people tell me i cant survive this competitive working environment if i continue being a HSP..i tried suppressing my nature but ended up quiting.. Always thought people like me are no way good for working but this speaker emphasized the need for HSP made me feel included in this world. Thank you

I understand, and want to remind you that you are included in this world, and hopefully you're able to grow from this experience and continue to honor yourself and your senses.

Thank you so much for your kind words@@amandakittoe-johnson9230

When I learned about high sensitivity, I finally felt seen. But so many people don't know about it or appreciate it, which can be exhausting. I used to be a reporter, and I burned out in less than a year, having to be on call at all times, juggle multiple stories and deadlines, and deal with people's hostility, which was a sensory nightmare. I didn't know about high sensitivity back then. Even if I had, I wouldn't have felt comfortable sharing it at work because the higher-ups would've perceived it as a weakness. In hindsight, it wasn't the right job for me, anyway. But had I known that I had different needs and that they were nothing to be ashamed of, it would've saved me some grief. I've been happier since becoming an editor and being able to work from home. I don't think I could do any other job without having a nervous breakdown. But I still hesitate to tell employers I'm highly sensitive. Some of them still don't know what it means, and I don't want their misinformed ideas about it to negatively affect me.

This comment! I’m literally burnt out and dealing with anxiety in my client relations job that involves a lot of interactions with people, multitasking and constant task switching. On top of that we’re always expected to work with a sense of urgency as I work in an agency. Literally planning to switch to editorial work so this comment gives me hope 😊. Wish you all the best x

​@@clare_jordin Thanks, Clare. Client relations sounds exhausting. Best of luck in your new career path. x

I recently had my first job experience, working full-time for 1 year in an open-plan office, and after feeling overstimulated almost every single day, with the urgent need to hide somewhere, I ended up quitting, as it was slowly killing me. I am 21 and, after taking some very needed time for myself, I ended up being introduced for the first time in my life to the HSP trait. I am amased that I had never heard of it before and that my life and the life of many could be so much better if only this trait had more awareness. I feel now so much more understood and I will certainly research more about this and do my best to spread the word. Thank you, Suzanne.

Excellent. Absolutely true. 💯♥️

Wauw! Wat een eye opener voor ondernemers en organisaties.

I’m a 🌸💕HSP🌸💕And I have no interest in changing who I was meant to be for anyone. ✌🏽& blessings 🙏🏽to everyone 💕

We live in a world where being sensitive is classed as a weakness and employers avoid hiring. I hope more workplaces could take a look at this and change their prospective.

most are unemployed in fact

Lol 🙄🙄🙄
