Do you remember when you used to see a child have a meltdown in public and think, “My child will never act like that!”? I know I did. I was convinced that I would be the parent with the calm, collected child who breezed through life without a hitch. But then, I became a parent myself.

Now, I find myself navigating the emotional ups and downs of raising a highly sensitive child, and let me tell you, it’s a journey filled with unexpected twists and turns. If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed, confused, or even fearful about your child’s intense emotions, you’re in the right place.

Today, we’ll explore the unique world of highly sensitive children—those little ones who feel things deeply and respond to the world in ways that can leave us scratching our heads. Together, we’ll uncover practical strategies to support them while embracing their unique wiring. Are you ready?

In this episode, you will learn:

• What defines a highly sensitive child and how to identify if your child fits this description.
• The common signs of highly sensitive children, from emotional responses to sensory sensitivities.
• Practical parenting strategies to create a supportive environment and help your child thrive.

Together, we’ll uncover how to embrace your child’s unique wiring while turning challenges into joyful moments of connection. Grab your favorite drink, settle in, and let’s dive into this exciting journey of understanding and parenting highly sensitive children!
