If you're a highly sensitive woman, you probably feel the weight of the world, the state of nature, of people, of everything that seems broken. It's easy to spiral into worry, anxiety, and a helpless feeling that nothing you do will ever be enough.

This episode is your permission slip to breathe.

In this conversation, I sit down with Lauren McLaughlin — a retired Unity minister who spent years counseling and guiding people through exactly these feelings. She knows the sensitive heart well, and she brings both wisdom and warmth to one of the most important questions we can ask right now.

You can't do it all — and you were never meant to. But you can do what you can. And when enough of us do a little, something shifts. We've been waiting for presidents, leaders, and governments to fix what's broken but that change isn't coming from the top down. It never really has. It comes from us. From the ground up. One heart-centered step, made by someone who cares, someone exactly like you.

In this episode, Bonnie talks with Amy Camie, "The Healing Harpist," for a relaxed and honest conversation about how to soothe your nervous system during busy or chaotic times. Together, they explore ways to slow down, listen, trust, and choose simple steps that create moments of calm, helping us reconnect with ourselves, even when life feels overwhelming. This conversation also touches on the importance of self-compassion — learning to accept all parts of ourselves with greater kindness and understanding. Amy's unique perspective offers insight into how music, emotional presence, and simple awareness practices can relax the body, calm the mind, and gently soothe the soul.

In this third episode of a 3 part mini series for parenting sensitive, empathetic and intuitive children, we will look deeper at how parenting a sensitive child requires more than understanding their needs — it means tending to your own nervous system. In this episode, we explore why nervous system support — what I call “mom care” — is essential, not indulgent.

When your body feels calmer, you respond instead of react. Boundaries feel clearer. Hard moments don’t escalate as quickly.

Sensitive children experience the world deeply. They feel more, notice more, and often take in everything around them—emotionally, physically, and intuitively—all at once.

You may already understand sensitivity in yourself, but in children it can look different. In this episode, I explore how a sensitive child’s brain is wired, why their reactions can seem sudden or intense, and why overwhelm—rather than defiance— is often at the root.
