Episode 8: The Highly Sensitive Child
In this episode, we dive into the world of the highly sensitive child—who often grows up to become a highly sensitive person. Sensitivity is commonly misunderstood as weakness, especially in boys, where emotions are sometimes suppressed in the name of “strength.” But in reality, sensitivity is not a flaw—it’s a powerful trait when nurtured properly.
Drawing on insights from Elaine Aron’s book The Highly Sensitive Child, I explore the four key aspects of sensitivity captured in the acronym DOES:
- Depth of processing
- Overstimulation
- Emotional responsiveness and empathy
- Sensitivity to subtle stimuli
We’ll unpack what these qualities look like in daily life, share relatable stories, and most importantly, discuss how parents can guide their highly sensitive children so that these traits become superpowers rather than burdens.
I’ll also walk you through Elaine Aron’s four keys to raising a joyous highly sensitive child:
- Building healthy self-esteem
- Reducing shame
- Practicing wise discipline
- Knowing how to discuss sensitivity
By the end of this episode, you’ll have practical strategies to support your child’s growth, strengthen your bond, and help them thrive in a world that doesn’t always understand sensitivity.
