Highly Sensitive Person traits, sensitivity, emotional healing - Have you ever been told you're "too sensitive"? Felt like your emotions were inconvenient, dramatic, or just "too much"?

Here's the truth: You're not broken-you're the canary in the coal mine. And your sensitivity isn't weakness; it's survival wisdom.

In this cinematic deep dive from Canaries in the Coal Mine, we explore what it truly means to be a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP). Inspired by the pioneering research of Dr. Elaine Aron, you'll discover the four core traits of HSPs, the crucial difference between innate sensitivity and trauma responses, and why society often mistakes emotional depth for fragility.

We'll also walk through practical, real-world tools to protect your energy, honor your nervous system, and thrive in a world that often rewards speed over sensitivity.

Because here, we don't toughen up-we tune in.

🕊️ Inside this Episode:
- The 4 core HSP traits (DOES Model)
- How trauma overlaps with sensitivity (and how to tell them apart)
- How society gaslights sensitive people-and how to stop gaslighting yourself
- Powerful daily tools for Highly Sensitive People to protect their energy

Are You A Charlotte?

Are You A Charlotte?

In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
