I Want you to Understand Yourself, Dear One
I was lying on the kitchen floor, weeping.
I had just gotten home from a show at our local bar. The night had been loud and overwhelming with a crush of people whose names had skipped right out of my mind. Even though I was in the middle of a big time in my life, I thought I could handle the outing.
Instead, I ended up coming home and falling apart on the kitchen floor. My body felt so overwhelmed it was like I was being turned on a spit over a fire.
As my tears dripped onto the tile, I remember reaching out to my higher self, my guides, anyone who could help me, asking: What is wrong with me??
I think about this moment sometimes. I wish I could travel back to be that guide, scooping myself up into my arms and whispering to her…
There is absolutely nothing wrong with you.
You’re just a sensitive person. And that sensitivity isn’t an illness—it’s a source of illumination. It’s here to show you, not only how you were meant to live, but how this world is meant to shift into a new iteration of wellbeing.
Are you a sensitive person, dear one?
If so, I want you to understand yourself (and what it really means to be sensitive).
Because when you do, you step into your soul’s deepest mission.
People talk a lot about sensitivity as a nervous system trait, a variety of neurodivergence that increases our ability to notice sensory details, which can also cause us to get overwhelmed by the world.
Sensitivity is this, of course. There is a biological, neurological reality to being a sensitive person in this world…
But there’s also a layer of sensitivity that is more than our physical form.
After working with thousands of sensitives over the years—and watching my own sensitivity transform from the thing that leaves me crying on the kitchen floor, to the thing that uplifts the whole arc of my life’s work and joy—I’ve seen that sensitivity is a soul-level phenomenon.
The people who choose to come into this world and be born into sensitive bodies are those who are highly devoted to the evolution of this planet.
They are souls who understand that the medicine needed to shift this time of numbness, trauma and forgetfulness isn’t going to be more pushing…but more gentleness.
Because sensitivity is the thing that will bring us back to our senses.
Nature creates sensitive people because we are the weathervanes, helping to direct culture and society back to a place of gentle harmony with the planet.
And souls—big souls with big missions—come in and choose to be sensitive, because they know this is one of the most potent ways to affect change.
As a sensitive person, this is who you are, dear one.
Your purpose is that important, that essential, that deep.
And the amazing thing is, you embody this purpose not by overcoming who you are or how your body works, but by embracing your sensitivity—and working with it as the magical tool that it is.
