Do you struggle with expressing or understanding your feelings? Join author and storyteller Laura Tyson as she interviews individuals from all walks of life on how to decode our emotions and come fully alive. Each episode contains practical ways to acknowledge and regulate your emotions.
In our always on, hyper-connected world, life can be overwhelming. This is amplified even more for people who identify as an HSP (or Highly Sensitive Person). So how do you combat the overwhelm and find your creative sweet spot?
In this last episode of Season 1, worship leader, speaker, and poet Dana Butler shares with me the secrets she's uncovered in her journey as an HSP. Discover how being highly sensitive has become a super power for her and her vulnerable approach to writing poetry that's both personal and relatable.
Plus, learn how Dana processes the onslaught of emotions and sensations she experiences as an HSP and a mama to two kiddos who need extra support.

Spoiler: positive psychology may not be what you think it is.
“What’s the math problem? Is the math problem just the answer you get at the bottom? Or is it the actually working through of the problem? Is life something you do on your own time and then you come up with the perfect mic drop moment? Because that’s only part of the answer - there’s much more to it. As much as we’re in the mess and we think we’re not ready for prime time, we’re in it actually. The mess is part of it.”
Are you smack in the messy parts parenting? Or often find yourself exasperated and losing your cool? This episode is for you. Dr. Robert Zeitlin and I candidly discuss how to make those meltdown moments more manageable. It's full of practical tips you can begin implementing today.
