Feeling like you’re juggling a million things—and dropping yourself in the process? In this episode of SelfKind (with me, your host, Erica Webb), I share my favourite “glass vs. rubber balls” analogy to help Highly Sensitive People (HSPs) sort priorities, protect what’s vital (spoiler alert: your wellbeing!), and let the rest roll away without guilt.
You’ll hear:
🎾 How to quickly identify your glass (fragile, non-negotiable) vs. rubber (safe-to-drop) priorities
🤔 Why HSPs can confuse productivity with worth—and why that might make everything feel urgent and non-negotiable
🌼 A practical reflection that helps you pause the overwhelm, protect your nervous system, and choose what actually matters this week.
