359 — Always Been Told You’re “Too Sensitive”? 6 Signs You’re a Highly Sensitive Person With Psychotherapist April Snow
12/10/2026 | 43 minDo you notice things other people miss , like a shift in someone’s tone or tension in the room before anyone says a word? Do you need more time to recover than the people around you, so even a fun party or a good work trip can leave you completely wiped out for days?
If that sounds like you, chances are someone has told you at some point that you’re too sensitive. Maybe you’ve even wondered if there’s something wrong with you.
My guest today is April Snow, a licensed marriage and family therapist who specializes in working with highly sensitive people. And she shares some strategies that can help you be your best when you're a sensitive person.
Some of the things we discuss are:
The six traits that tell you whether you’re actually a highly sensitive person
What the research actually shows about the strengths that come with being a highly sensitve person
Why 90% of HSPs need more sleep
Why HSPs feel joy more intensely than other people
The difference between being a highly sensitive person and just being an introvert
How to spot the “ghosts” from the past that make a current emotion feel bigger than the moment deserves
Why “think more, worry less” is actually the right advice for HSPs
Why giving yourself more processing time can actually quiet your mind
How to set boundaries without the guilt
The Therapist’s Take: My top three strategies for working with your sensitivity instead of against it

09/10/2026 | 20 minAre you the person everyone comes to? Someone asks you to cover a shift, join the committee, host the gathering, or help with the move, and the yes comes out before you’ve even thought about it. Then you’re driving home wondering, why did I just agree to that?
Saying yes to everything doesn’t make people appreciate you more. It can teach them your time isn’t worth much, and it can take a toll on your health, your career, and your relationships. Today I’m sharing four boundaries that help you stop saying yes to everything, even if you’re everyone’s go-to person.
Some of the things I talk about are:
The “30-minute” favor I agreed to that kept growing, and why I didn’t speak up sooner.
The surprising reason one of my therapy clients got passed over for a promotion for 10 years.
What research says about how being the go-to person affects burnout, job satisfaction, and happiness.
The simple default phrase that buys you time before the yes slips out.
Why giving a long excuse when you say no backfires, and what to say instead.
How nodding along when you disagree teaches people your agreement doesn’t mean anything.
What “role creep” is, and how to spot it at work and at home.
Why feeling guilty doesn’t mean you did something wrong.
What to do when your boundaries have slipped and it feels too late to set them.

05/10/2026 | 44 minHave you ever downloaded a meditation app you swore you were going to use? Or bought a journal that's still sitting on your nightstand? Or promised yourself that starting Monday, you'd finally do that 20-minute morning routine that was going to change everything — only to abandon it a week later?
Most of us have some version of that story. And we usually decide it means we lack self-discipline, that we're not the kind of person who follows through, that we just can't stick with anything.
But my guest today says time is the real problem. Dr. Eli Susman, a psychologist and former Harvard researcher who coined the term micropractice — well-being practices that take 30 seconds or less.
Some of the things we discuss are:
The three-breath meditation retreat moment that launched Eli's research into micro practices
The 20-second self-compassionate touch exercise that produced results comparable to much more time-intensive interventions
Why consistency matters more than duration wellness habits
The micropractice that lowers mortality risk by 44–54%
How to boost your productivity by 15% in under 30 seconds
How to develop a cue that reminds you to engage in your habit
The four types of micro practices
The Therapist's Take: My top three strategies for building wellness habits that actually stick

02/10/2026 | 21 minHave you ever had to walk into work and act like everything was fine while your whole life was falling apart? Maybe you're going through a divorce, fielding calls about an aging parent between meetings, or you received a scary diagnosis the day before a big presentation.
Quitting usually isn't an option, and "just leave it at the door" isn't much help either. Today I'm sharing five of the biggest struggles people face when they have to keep showing up during a personal crisis, and the mental strength play that helps with each one.
Some of the things I talk about are:
How I got myself back to work, and in front of clients, after my husband died.
The difference between compartmentalizing and suppressing, and why one helps while the other catches up with you later.
Why telling yourself "don't think about it" makes intrusive thoughts worse, and the simple scheduling trick that quiets them.
How to handle kind coworkers who keep asking how you're doing (often the hardest part of the day).
What to consider before telling your boss what's going on.
Why work can suddenly feel meaningless, and how the 10-minute rule gets you moving anyway.
The "smile file" I kept in my filing cabinet, and how to build one on your phone before you need it.
The one question to ask on your drive home when it feels like you've lost all control.
Why these plays get you through a workday but not through the crisis itself, and what that bigger job requires.

28/09/2026 | 47 minHave you ever done something that went against everything you believe about yourself? Maybe you think of yourself as an honest person, but you round up hours on your timesheet. Or maybe you say family is the most important thing in your life, but you spend the entire weekend working. Or maybe it's something bigger — something you still can't fully explain, even though it happened years ago.
Most of us assume that when we act against our values, it's because we're weak. But there's evidence that shows even mentally strong people might sometimes lie, cheat or break their own rules.
My guest is Dr. Glenn Hutchinson, a psychologist who has spent years studying why people's behavior isn't always in line with their values.
Some of the things we discuss are:
Why the explanations we come up with for our own behavior are often completely wrong (and the famous 1977 study that proved it)
Why we judge other people more harshly than we judge ourselves for the exact same behavior
Why willpower fails almost everyone eventually
What the new GLP-1 medications reveal about how unconscious urges actually work
Why happily married people can still be unfaithful and the ancient brain systems that operate independently of our values
The dangerous "I've already blown it" thinking that turns one small slip into a full-blown spiral
The story of the man who left an inpatient facility convinced he was a narcissist when he wasn't even close
The chilling examples of how our conscious mind fails us
Why insight and behavior change are two completely different things
The two questions to ask about any bad habit
The Therapist's Take: My top three strategies for getting your behavior in line with your values
