Have you ever wondered if being an empath is something that can be diagnosed?
In this episode, we explore the common belief that being an empath is caused by childhood trauma or dysfunction.
While this is a popular opinion, I share a different perspective—what if being an empath is actually a sacred gift rather than something to be "explained away" or "fixed"?
We’ll also dive into:
✨ Why mainstream psychology doesn’t recognize "empath" as a diagnosis—and why that might be a good thing.
✨ The truth about trauma—while being an empath doesn’t come from trauma, your sensitivity can make you more susceptible to it.
✨ A powerful exercise to help you feel into which belief resonates with you most.
This episode is all about shifting the narrative around sensitivity, so you can own your empathic gifts with confidence. Tune in and reclaim your power as an embodied empath!

Angel Blessings,

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
