Have you spent years understanding your trauma… and still find yourself stuck in the same emotional reactions?

Many highly sensitive people deeply understand their trauma, attachment patterns, and emotional triggers—yet still freeze in conflict, people-please, overthink criticism, or feel anxious in relationships.

  • Learn how protective emotional patterns continue responding to old dangers
  • Discover a deeper path to healing by connecting with the part of you still carrying fear

What if the traits you've judged as flaws your entire life are actually some of your greatest strengths?

Have you ever felt completely overwhelmed even though nothing in your life seems stressful enough to explain it?

Many highly sensitive people assume overwhelm must come from one major problem. But more often, it's the accumulation of emails, decisions, conversations, responsibilities, unfinished tasks, and constant mental processing quietly filling their emotional bandwidth until they reach a breaking point.

Have you ever felt like you don't quite fit in—and wondered if something is wrong with you?

If you're a highly sensitive person, you've likely spent years comparing yourself to others who seem to move through life with less stress, fewer emotions, and more ease.

In this episode, you'll discover:

  • Why highly sensitive people naturally grow up feeling different from those around them
  • How the belief that "something is wrong with me" creates unnecessary emotional suffering
  • A practical path toward deeper self-acceptance so you can stop fighting your sensitivity and start embracing it

Listen now to discover how accepting your sensitivity can help you replace self-judgment with confidence, relief, and a stronger sense of belonging.

If you're a highly sensitive person, boundary struggles can be incredibly frustrating because the problem often isn't knowing what to do—it's being unable to follow through when fear, guilt, self-doubt, or the desire for harmony take over. Understanding why this happens can be the difference between staying stuck in people-pleasing and finally feeling free to honor your own needs.

By listening to this episode, you'll discover:

  • Why learning about boundaries often isn't enough to help you consistently hold them
  • The hidden fears and beliefs that pull highly sensitive people back into accommodation and people-pleasing
  • How boundaries become easier when you address the emotional patterns underneath them instead of relying on willpower

Listen now to uncover the real reason boundaries feel so difficult—and learn how to create lasting change without forcing yourself to be someone you're not.

Are you feeling exhausted, overwhelmed, or emotionally reactive—even when you're trying to slow down and take care of yourself?

As a highly sensitive person, modern life constantly bombards your nervous system with stimulation, pressure, and emotional input.

Over time, this hidden accumulation of stress can leave you feeling chronically overwhelmed without understanding why.

  • Understand why highly sensitive people accumulate emotional and nervous system "heat" more easily than others.
  • Discover how modern life quietly pulls you away from true restoration and keeps your system stuck in activation.
  • Learn simple, practical ways to cool, nourish, and rebalance your nervous system so you can feel calmer, steadier, and more like yourself again.

Listen now to discover how small, nourishing shifts can help your sensitive nervous system recover from overload and return to a state of calm, balance, and resilience.

https://trueinnerfreedom.com/whos-business-cards/

Have you ever felt someone else's stress so deeply that you lost touch with your own emotional state?

  • How empathy quietly turns into emotional entanglement and drains your energy
  • A practical way to stay compassionate, present, and supportive without carrying someone else's emotional burden

Have you been putting off self-care until life finally calms down—only to realize that moment never seems to arrive?

As a highly sensitive person, it's natural to focus deeply on the people, problems, and responsibilities that need your attention. But during stressful seasons, many HSPs quietly stop taking care of themselves, convincing themselves they'll rest later. The challenge is that "later" often turns into weeks, months, or even years, leaving the nervous system depleted when it needs support the most.

In this episode, you'll discover:

  • Why highly sensitive people often abandon their own needs during the times they need self-care most.
  • How all-or-nothing thinking around self-care quietly increases stress, overwhelm, and burnout.
  • Why even tiny moments of recovery can have a powerful impact on your nervous system and emotional well-being.

Listen now to learn how small, practical moments of self-care can help you feel more grounded, resilient, and connected to yourself—even when life feels overwhelming.

  • Understand why learning about narcissism initially feels so validating for highly sensitive people
  • Discover how blame — even when directed outward — can still keep you emotionally stuck
  • Learn how deeper healing begins when you reconnect with your own nervous system, self-trust, and emotional grounding

Do you feel guilty anytime someone around you feels disappointed, uncomfortable, or upset — even when you've done nothing wrong?

For many highly sensitive people, guilt becomes a constant emotional background noise. You replay conversations, overanalyze reactions, try to prevent conflict before it happens, and quietly carry responsibility for emotions that were never yours to manage. In this episode, you'll discover why this pattern happens, how stress turns empathy into emotional over-responsibility, and why guilt is often not proof that you failed — but a signal that you've become too focused on managing everyone else's emotional experience.

  • Understand why highly sensitive people so easily fall into guilt, people-pleasing, and emotional self-monitoring
  • Learn the critical difference between empathy and emotional responsibility so you can stop carrying emotions that aren't yours
  • Discover how to question the hidden beliefs that fuel guilt and finally experience more emotional freedom, honesty, and inner peace

Listen now to finally understand why guilt feels so automatic as a highly sensitive person — and how to break free from the exhausting cycle of managing everyone else's emotions

Feeling stuck trying to make the "right" decision? Grab The Decision Clarity Filter:

https://trueinnerfreedom.com/decision-clarity-filter/

Are you exhausted from trying to make the "perfect" decision? What if the real problem isn't your sensitivity… but the pressure you're putting on yourself to eliminate uncertainty before moving forward?

As a highly sensitive person, decision-making can feel emotionally overwhelming. You replay every possibility, imagine every outcome, and carry the weight of how your choices might affect everyone around you. But overthinking isn't always a sign that you're being wise — sometimes it's a nervous system stuck in fear, urgency, and emotional pressure. In this episode, we explore why HSPs struggle so deeply with decisions and how to reconnect with a calmer, more grounded sense of clarity.

In this episode, you'll discover: * Why highly sensitive people naturally take longer to make important decisions — and why that's not a flaw * The hidden difference between thoughtful reflection and fear-based overthinking * How to stop chasing certainty and start making decisions from a place of inner alignment and calm

If decision-making has been draining your energy, clouding your clarity, or keeping you stuck in endless mental loops, this episode will help you quiet the noise and finally move forward with more trust in yourself.

Why do highly sensitive people feel exhausted even when life "looks fine" on the outside? What if the real issue isn't weakness… but misalignment?

If you're a highly sensitive person, you've probably felt the quiet frustration of living a life that doesn't fully resonate with who you are. In this episode, we explore why meaning, depth, and inner coherence matter so deeply for HSPs — and how subtle misalignment in your work, relationships, or daily life can quietly drain your energy, motivation, and sense of self. Instead of forcing clarity or chasing a "perfect" purpose, you'll learn how alignment naturally deepens over time when you stop fighting your current reality and start listening more honestly to yourself.

By listening to this episode, you'll discover:

  • Why highly sensitive people are naturally wired to seek meaning, purpose, and depth in everything they do
  • The hidden ways misalignment creates exhaustion, rumination, emotional flatness, and inner conflict
  • How to move toward a more aligned, fulfilling life without perfectionism, pressure, or forcing immediate answers

Press play to discover how deeper alignment can help you feel more grounded, energized, and authentically connected to the life you're building.

  • How the urge to explain and defend yourself escalates relationship tension
  • A healthier way to stay grounded, peaceful, and connected without taking responsibility for someone else's emotions

Why does part of you still feel "at work" long after the workday is over?

Many highly sensitive people try to create better work-life balance by setting boundaries and ending work on time — yet their nervous system still stays engaged hours later. Even when the laptop is closed, unfinished conversations, decisions, and mental "open loops" continue running in the background, making it difficult to truly rest, relax, or feel off duty.

In this episode, you'll discover:

  • Why forcing yourself to "stop thinking about work" usually makes the problem worse
  • What's actually happening in your nervous system when work still feels mentally active after hours
  • A simple way to close mental open loops so you can finally feel more present, calm, and restored after your workday ends

Press play now to learn how to create a real sense of closure at the end of your workday so your mind and body can finally let go and recharge.

What if the real problem isn't your sensitivity—but the culture you've been trying to fit into?

If you've ever felt "too sensitive," misunderstood, or out of place in a fast-paced, tough-minded world, this episode will hit home.

This episode explores how that disconnect forms—and why it keeps you stuck seeking validation outside yourself.

  • Understand why your sensitivity feels like a weakness in some environments—and why that belief isn't actually true
  • Learn what your mind does when you don't feel seen or valued, and how it creates self-doubt and dependence on others

What if the reason your trauma isn't healing… is because you're trying too hard to fix it?

  • Understand why pushing through trauma can actually make it more resistant and harder to heal
  • Discover why emotional experiences feel so much more intense as a highly sensitive person—and what that really means
  • Learn a completely different, gentler approach that allows healing to unfold naturally without force or pressure

What if you're not falling behind… but actually processing life more deeply than everyone else?

If you've ever felt like you should be able to keep up—but somehow everything feels heavier, slower, or more overwhelming—this episode will hit home. For highly sensitive people, the pressure to match the pace of others can quietly lead to burnout, self-doubt, and the constant feeling of "not enough," even when you're doing a lot.

  • Understand why your brain and nervous system naturally operate at a different pace—and why that's not a flaw
  • Discover what's really causing the persistent feeling of falling behind (and why it's not about your capability)
  • Learn how to work with your sensitivity instead of against it, so you can feel calmer, clearer, and more effective

Press play to finally release the pressure to keep up and start moving in a way that actually works for you.

When criticism stings, create space before the spiral begins. Download The Emotional Buffer Builder:

https://trueinnerfreedom.com/emotional-buffer/

Why does even gentle feedback sometimes feel like a personal attack—especially when you know it's meant to help?

If you're a highly sensitive person, you probably want feedback—you care deeply about growth, doing things well, and understanding your impact. But when feedback actually arrives, your nervous system can react before logic has a chance to step in. What starts as a simple comment quickly turns into overthinking, self-doubt, and a painful story about your worth. This episode breaks down why that happens—and how to interrupt the pattern before it spirals.

  • Understand why your mind turns neutral feedback into something personal and emotionally charged
  • Learn how to create a small but powerful pause before your thoughts spiral
  • Discover how to stay grounded so feedback becomes useful information instead of emotional injury

Press play now to learn how to stop taking feedback personally and start using it as a tool for growth—without the emotional spiral.

Have you ever walked away from a conversation feeling something was "off"… even when everyone else seemed perfectly fine?

If you're a highly sensitive person, you may notice emotional shifts that others completely miss — a subtle tone change, tension beneath a joke, or the feeling that someone isn't really "fine." But instead of trusting that awareness, many sensitive people turn it against themselves, assuming their depth means they're too much, too emotional, or too fragile. In this Self-Compassion Wednesday episode, we explore why your nervous system picks up so much emotional information — and how the real struggle isn't your sensitivity, but the stressful stories layered on top of it.

  • Understand what emotional intensity actually looks like in everyday life for highly sensitive people.
  • Discover why your empathy runs so deep and the important role it plays in human relationships and group dynamics.
  • Learn how to separate emotional signals from the stressful interpretations that create overwhelm, shame, and rumination.

What if the reason decisions feel so hard for you isn't because you "think too much," but because your mind naturally processes things more deeply than most?

If you're a highly sensitive person, making a decision can feel exhausting. While others see a simple yes-or-no choice, your mind quickly maps out emotional consequences, relationship impacts, future possibilities, and potential regrets. That depth of processing can be a powerful strength—but without the right approach, it can also turn into decision paralysis, leaving you stuck between options and drained before you've even chosen.

  • Understand why highly sensitive people naturally see so many angles in a decision and why that depth can make choosing feel overwhelming.
  • Learn the key difference between healthy reflection that leads to clarity and anxious looping that keeps you stuck.
  • Discover seven practical strategies to move out of decision paralysis and make choices that feel aligned without betraying yourself.

Press play to learn how to turn your deep thinking into clear, confident decisions—without the stress and overanalysis.

Why do bright lights, loud rooms, and crowded spaces drain you faster than everyone else — and what if it's not a flaw, but a biological strength?

If you're a highly sensitive person, you've probably wondered why "normal" environments can leave you irritable, foggy, or desperate to escape. You may have told yourself you need to toughen up or stop being so sensitive. But what if your nervous system simply processes more data per minute than most people's? In a world saturated with artificial light, constant noise, and nonstop stimulation, understanding how your nervous system actually works isn't optional — it's essential for your well-being.

In this episode, you'll discover:

  • Why stimulation stacks in your nervous system and creates overwhelm — even when each input seems small on its own
  • What's really happening in your brain when you process sensory information more deeply before filtering it
  • How to stop blaming yourself for being "too sensitive" and start designing your life around a highly responsive nervous system

Press play now to understand your sensitivity at the nervous system level — and finally replace self-criticism with clarity, confidence, and self-compassion.

Are you trying to "be brave" with your trauma—only to end up flooded, wired, shut down, or ashamed for being "too sensitive"?

If you're a highly sensitive person, you've probably been told that healing means going all the way in—feeling everything intensely and pushing through the pain. But what if that approach is exactly what's overwhelming your nervous system?

HSPs make up 15–20% of the population, and our nervous systems are wired for depth, subtlety, and detail—not overload. When we force trauma processing through intensity, we don't heal faster… we retraumatize ourselves. That can lead to insomnia, irritability, shutdown, relationship strain, and the painful belief that our sensitivity is the problem.

This episode unpacks why trauma feels more intense for HSPs—and what a truly safe, effective healing approach actually looks like.

By listening, you'll gain:

  • A clear understanding of why trauma activates highly sensitive nervous systems more quickly—and why that's not a weakness
  • Insight into how "all-or-nothing" healing and perfectionism can quietly retraumatize you
  • A practical, gentle framework for trauma work that builds capacity, regulation, and safety over time

Press play now to learn how to heal your trauma in a way that feels steady, grounded, and safe—without overwhelming your nervous system.

What if the reason you feel invisible, resentful, or emotionally exhausted isn't because you're "too sensitive"… but because you've been quietly abandoning yourself for years?

If you're a highly sensitive person, you likely pride yourself on being caring, perceptive, and easy to be around. But what if those beautiful strengths have slowly turned into self-erasure?

Maybe you say yes when your body says no. Maybe you edit your truth mid-sentence. Maybe you feel responsible for other people's moods before you even consider your own.

This episode unpacks the hidden stress pattern of chronic self-abandonment — and why so many HSPs default to protecting connection instead of protecting themselves. If you're tired of feeling emotionally fatigued, resentful, or unsure of who you even are anymore, this conversation will help you understand what's really happening beneath the surface.

By listening, you'll:

  • Recognize the subtle, everyday ways you override your own needs without realizing it
  • Understand the nervous system wiring that makes harmony feel safer than honesty
  • Learn what "internal structure" really means — and how to stay rooted in yourself without losing your compassion

Press play now to discover how to stop disappearing in your relationships and finally stay grounded in your own truth — without giving up your empathy.

What if the very trait that makes you feel overwhelmed faster is also the reason you can heal more deeply than most people?

If you're a highly sensitive person, you already know stress hits differently. You notice tone shifts, subtle tension, relational strain, and unspoken meaning long before others do. While the world tells you to "push through," your nervous system refuses—and that can leave you feeling fragile, behind, or exhausted. But what if your sensitivity isn't the problem? What if it's actually the key to resilience, faster recovery, and deeper emotional strength when you understand how to work with it instead of against it?

In this episode, you'll discover:

  • Why stress builds faster in highly sensitive nervous systems—and why that's not a flaw
  • The science-backed reason sensitive people can process and release stress more completely than others
  • The three essential pillars that help stress move through you instead of lingering

Press play now to learn how to turn your sensitivity from a source of stress into your greatest advantage for healing and resilience.

Why does one tense conversation linger in your body for days—long after everyone else has moved on?

If you're a highly sensitive person, conflict doesn't just "happen and pass." It echoes. A slight shift in tone, a sharp comment, or a moment of tension can send your nervous system into overdrive—and even when the other person seems fine, you're still replaying it, questioning yourself, and wondering if something deeper is wrong.

In this Breakthrough Mondays episode, we explore why conflict feels so destabilizing for highly sensitive people and, more importantly, how to stay emotionally steady without suppressing yourself or overreacting. You'll learn the difference between sensory shock and emotional activation—and why understanding that difference changes everything.

By listening to this episode, you'll:

  • Understand why your nervous system reacts so strongly to tone shifts and tension—and why it's not a flaw
  • Learn the crucial difference between physical activation and emotional triggering (and how to respond to each)
  • Discover how to clean up the inner beliefs that make conflict feel personal, unsafe, or destabilizing

This isn't about communication tricks or saying the "right" thing in the moment. It's about inner freedom—so hard conversations don't shake your foundation.

Press play now to learn how to stay grounded, clear, and steady in conflict—without losing yourself in the process.

Have you ever been told you're "overthinking" when you were actually just trying to understand something deeply?

If you're a highly sensitive person, your need for depth can feel like both a gift and a burden. You pause before responding. You reflect before committing. You circle back to unresolved moments because you care about clarity and meaning. But in a fast-paced world that values speed over depth, that can get misread as drama, indecision, or "too much." Over time, those misinterpretations can quietly turn into self-doubt — and you may start questioning something that is actually one of your greatest strengths.

In this Strategy Friday episode, we unpack why this happens and how to stop internalizing a misunderstanding that was never yours to carry.

By listening, you'll:

  • Understand the science behind the highly sensitive brain — and why depth of processing is a biological strength, not a flaw
  • Learn how to tell the difference between healthy depth and anxious spiraling so you can trust your inner experience
  • Discover practical ways to stay rooted in your insight and meaning-making without feeling alone or misunderstood

Press play now to reclaim your depth as the strength it truly is — and stop letting misunderstanding turn into self-doubt.

Are you trying to calm down as a highly sensitive person… but somehow the tools that usually work just aren't working?

As a highly sensitive person, you've likely done the inner work. You journal. You reflect. You reduce stimulation. You try to be self-aware and responsible with your emotions.

But what if the reason you're not finding relief isn't because you're doing something wrong… it's because you're supporting the wrong system?

Sometimes it's not emotional stress — it's sensory overwhelm. Sometimes it's not overstimulation — it's an unprocessed hurt.

When you misread the signal, you misapply the solution. And that's when you end up exhausted, frustrated, and doubting yourself.

This episode will help you finally understand the difference — so you can stop spiraling and start responding with clarity.

By listening, you'll learn how to:

  • Recognize the clear signs of sensory overwhelm vs. emotional stress
  • Understand why the symptoms feel similar but require completely different support
  • Calm down faster by giving your nervous system or your heart exactly what it's actually asking for

Press play now to stop guessing what's wrong and start giving yourself the kind of support that actually brings relief.

Are You Burning Out Trying to Be "Capable"?

Do you find yourself constantly holding everything together — not because you want to, but because you feel you have to? If you're a highly sensitive person, your drive to be competent might actually be wearing you down.

This episode dives into a powerful truth many HSPs live with but rarely name: the unspoken belief that being impressive equals being safe. Todd Smith, a fellow HSP and facilitator of The Work of Byron Katie, unpacks how this conditioning creates invisible labor, chronic tension, and a nervous system that never truly rests — even on vacation.

In this episode, you'll discover:

  • Why capability becomes a survival strategy for HSPs — and the toll it quietly takes on your body.
  • How invisible labor shows up in emotional tracking, over-functioning, and chronic background effort.
  • What it really takes to rest without guilt — by shifting responsibility from yourself to reliable systems and support.

Are You Losing Yourself in Other People's Emotions?

If you're a highly sensitive person (HSP), do you often feel drained after being there for someone? What if your empathy isn't the problem—but the way you're carrying it is?

You'll discover:

  • The hidden signs that your empathy has crossed into emotional enmeshment.
  • A powerful body-based technique to stay grounded even during someone else's emotional storm.
  • How to maintain a deep connection with others without losing yourself in the process.

If you're a highly sensitive person who constantly questions your own needs, this episode may reveal a truth you've been avoiding — that your self-doubt is quietly draining your confidence.

What you'll walk away with:

I am changing the name of the podcast. This episode shares the changes and my thinking of why I’m doing so. Please listen to hear the details.

Transcript Thank you for joining me on this special transition episode. You can say, this is really more of an announcement kind of episode. Um, but the reason I’m doing this is because I am. Planning to change the name of this podcast. Um, so far for all of these episodes. It has been called a wiggle room, um, which is all about. Finding that little bit of space inside of us, that’s always there that you can always access.

And the process for finding that of course is the work of Byron Katie. I’m going to be changing that name to. Uh, the new name is going to be stress management for highly sensitive people. And the reason I’m changing it is that I want to make this podcast. Uh, accessible. Understandable. Uh, for anyone, even if they’ve never heard of the work. Um, and especially for highly sensitive people. I’ve found as I’ve been looking, uh, at my clients and participants. And also myself that the common theme throughout all of my participants and all of my clients are almost all. Is this trait of being a highly sensitive person. Uh, this doesn’t mean that, uh, you know, highly sensitive people is something that’s been studied.

It’s a personality trait. It’s nothing wrong. Uh, about 20% of the world’s population. Uh, is highly sensitive person. And. The reason I’m focusing in on that is because, uh, it is something that resonates to me, something that’s dear to my heart and something that I’m especially attuned to being able to support.

So. Um, I find that when I work with highly sensitive people, they tend to be drawn to me in first place. But when I work with them, there’s a natural resonance and there’s an understanding and the issues that highly sensitive people tend to, uh, bring up. Are the ones that I also, uh, either have worked through or are in the process of working through.

So, um, and also the name stress management is of course, a bigger term that’s used in many different ways. I’ll be using it, especially with regards to the work of Byron Katie. As a powerful tool for reducing stress. Um, but I’ll also be open to discussing other aspects of stress management, other ways of, uh, finding balance in life. Especially for people who are highly sensitive by nature.

And there are some special types of stresses that we HSPs, uh, deal with and I’ll be addressing those. And. Even providing some tips and strategies, uh, as we go along. But the main focus will continue to be the work of Byron Katie. That’s what I’m trained in. That’s my expertise. And that’s what I love.

Uh, so the content will be very similar. Uh, we’ll have open session recordings, just like you’ve been hearing. Um, I will also be adding, uh, two additional episodes each week. So we’re going to go from, instead of one episode per work week, we’re going to go to three episodes a week. The main episode will be the open session recordings, just like we’ve been having all along. And the other two will be, there’ll be a guided meditation, uh, episode where I will be facilitating you or anyone who’s listening. In doing the work on a particular topic. Uh, and I’ll be asking you directly the questions and I’ll give you, I’ll be giving you space to find your answers. And I’ll be supporting you as we go through, uh, questioning a particular stressful thought. And so that will be on Mondays and then Wednesdays will be the open session recordings. And then Fridays. We’ll be more of a strategy or tips, uh, kind of episode where I will be simply sharing some experience or giving some resource that may be supportive.

If you’re highly sensitive person dealing with certain kinds of stresses that may be supportive as you. As you go through. Your life.

So. Can you listen, if you’re not an HSP, not a highly sensitive person. Of course you can. This podcast is open to anyone and many of the same issues that people who are highly sensitive face. Are the same ones that everybody faces. And so you may learn tons just from listening. Um, and you’re, you’re not precluded from being a part of this. It just means that I will be focused, especially on this type of person.

And that will be who I was. Speaking to throughout the episodes.

And then finally the work is always the same. The work is four questions and turnarounds. I’m still just as passionate about the work as I’ve always been. And you will experience tons of that as we go through. The, um, the upcoming episodes. And of course you can still join in open sessions. You can bring your questions about the work you can also. Uh, do the work with me. And this will stay the same. Uh, the only decision is I’m now focusing more specifically on highly sensitive people.

Ironically, that is, seems to be the audience that has, uh, kind of been listening all along primarily. Um, and so I’m just calling that and naming that. And, uh, we’ll be focusing more specifically on H S P S and then the other, of course, we’ll be just focusing on the idea of stress management. Uh, as something that is understandable to people in general, even if they’ve never heard the word. So that’s what you’ll see next week.

We’ll start with, uh, with one episode, uh, where there’ll be an open session episode. And it will be quite similar, but we’ll start with the new name and it will be a slightly different. Uh, kind of introduction and intro and an outro, but. Uh, look for some changes coming in. There’ll be some new cover art coming as well.

And there’ll be, um, Lots of new contents. So if we’re working three times a week, you can expect to hear lots of cool. Interesting, uh, episodes. Coming down the pipeline and I’m really looking forward to that. So stay tuned. Thank you for, uh, listening. And if you have any questions, feel free to contact me and I’ll be happy to speak to you about that or, or email you about that. Once again, thanks for being a part of my journey.

And I look forward to continuing that together with you.

In this episode of the Wiggle Room Podcast, a participant questions the stressful thought, "I should pay for it but I don't want to."

Open Session Recording In addition to The Work on "I should pay for it," there was a good question about how to go from a general stressful thought to find something specific to work. The mind often hides in generalities. It can be helpful to find a specific instance when doing The Work.

In this episode of the Wiggle Room Podcast, a participant does The Work on that feeling of obligation: “I have to do what I don’t like first…” Does it sound like school and parents? Well, it should.

For those of us who took it too far, here’s a little balance.
