In this episode, Kay Suthar sits down with Transformation Coach Barbera Schouten to explore what it really means to be a highly sensitive person in business and why sensitivity is not a weakness, but a powerful advantage. Barbera shares her journey of growing up highly sensitive in a world that encouraged her to “fit in,” and how embracing her raw, intuitive nature became the foundation of her work today. Together, they unpack multipotentiality, energy, breathwork, and how entrepreneurs can use sensitivity and awareness as a driving force for impact, fulfilment, and profit. This episode is especially powerful for empaths, intuitives, and soul-led business owners who want to work with their energy — not against it.
