☑️Do you find that the littlest things cause you to overreact and then feel guilty?

Take a deep breath. You’re not broken, you’re just a highly sensitive introvert trying to survive in a world that doesn’t make space for sensitivity. I got you!
This podcast will show you simple strategies to stop hiding your emotions, reset your nervous system to reduce emotional overwhelm, and embrace your sensitivity as a strength instead of something to hide.
You’ll learn practical tools to stop feeling emotionally drained, create self-care routines and space to rest and recharge during your day, and feel understood and seen for who you truly are.
Hey, I’m LaToya. A single mom of 4, Life and Emotional Resilience coach, and fellow highly sensitive introvert. I spent years believing my emotions were a problem to fix and that I just needed to be less sensitive.
I thought I had to push through the emotional exhaustion and burnout, stuff my emotions, and keep it together no matter what, even when I was falling apart inside.
But journaling changed everything. It helped me stop the emotional spiral and finally feel safe being myself.
I created simple journaling routines that support my nervous system, creativity, and need for deep rest and a slower pace. And now, I’m here to share it with you!
If you’re ready to stop stuffing your feelings, snapping under pressure, or feeling like your emotions are too much…
If you’re craving calm, clarity, and connection without losing who you are as an HSP and introvert…
And if you want to feel more grounded and less drained by daily life …
This podcast is for you.
Grab your weighted blanket and your favorite journal and pen, we’re doing this together, one page at a time!
