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 307: Introducing High Sensitivity Australia with Matt Glover
Have you ever wished there were Australian-based resources, trainings and person gatherings created by highly sensitive people, for highly sensitive people? In episode 307 of SelfKind, I'm joined by counsellor, nature-therapy practitioner (and long-time friend) Matt Glover to unveil ourr joint project High Sensitivity Australia.
Together we discuss:
⭐️ the brand new resource and website: High Sensitivity Australia
🌿 why our culture often tries to “tone down” sensitivity—and why we're taking the opposite approach
🌳 our decade-plus-long friendship (and how it began in a Facebook illustration group!) and what it has taught us about imposter syndrome and rejection sensitivity
🌼 what’s coming next: our ever-growing website. live online conversations, and gentle, HSP-friendly events
Ready to feel seen, supported and celebrated for your sensitivity? This episode is for you.
