SelfKind: Conversations in self-care, kindness and compassion for highly sensitive people
Hi and welcome to SelfKind with me, Erica Webb. This is a podcast for Highly Sensitive People (HSP) who want to navigate the tricky bits of their sensitivity with more ease, while finding their sensitivity super powers. Here, we're all about being, living and moving through a lens of self compassion and kindness.
As your host, I meet you as a fellow HSP. I know what it's like to feel like things are too loud, too bright and just ... too much. In my work as a registered counsellor and mindful movement coach, I've supported myself and my clients to find ways to embrace their sensitivity that centre on self-compassion, nervous system regulation, self-awareness and, ultimately, self-love.
From mindfulness, mindful movement, joy seeking and a zillion and one practices in between, here you'll find space to be fully you - fully human - and the tools to navigate the tricky bits of having a highly sensitive nervous system.
I’m thrilled you’re here.

Ep 185: Habits, change and Brainspotting with Erin Todd
Hello! Welcome to this episode of SelfKind with me, Erica Webb, and my guest, Erin Todd.
Erin - an Integrative Health Coach - has a background in Psychology and over 17 years working with people in the helping profession. Today, she's sharing with us her wisdom around habits, change and the role of a modality called 'Brainspotting' in supporting change.
In this episode you'll hear:
- Why we end up disconnected from our inner wisdom
- Why the goal of nourishing ourselves with our habits is so powerful, and the role of this simple question: What am I doing today that's nourishing?
- The brain-based processes involved in habit and change
- How habits form in the brain's quest for safety
- Tools for changing the subconscious processes involved in habit and change
- Brainspotting - what it is and how it can help: "where you look impacts how you feel"
- The uncertainty principle and trusting the brain to heal
- The importance of recognising that you are not broken
