Episode 121: Courtney Marchesani — How Trauma Shapes Our Perception of Reality & Experiencing the World as a Highly Sensitive Individual

by | Nov 23, 2021 | Interviews with Leaders | 0 comments

“I think our sensitivity is what is beautiful about it and about the abilities developing over time because it is what creates compassion, it is what creates inner-connectivity in individuals and community and kindness, and that’s what we need right now more than anything else.”

—Courtney Marchesani

In her extraordinary new book from Hay House, Four Gifts of the Highly Sensitive: Embrace the Science of Sensitivity, Heal Anxiety and Relationships, and Connect Deeply With Your World, Courtney Marchesani de-stigmatizes the term “sensitive,” illustrating how “sensitivity” is a powerful advantage, and provides a pathway to an effective balancing act between being highly aware and participating fully in the world without feeling the need to shut down or self-anesthetize to avoid pain, people or environmental stimulation.

Now a coach, teacher and health advocate with a master’s degree in mind-body medicine, she has spent the last 20 years passionately exploring the research gap that exists between what medical science believes and what the gifted sensitive feels. She provides an enlightening ride through early to now-emerging science on sensitivity and the abilities of the highly sensitive.
