In this powerful and validating episode, Alissa unpacks the hidden reasons why highly sensitive people (HSPs) often struggle with self trust and how that lack of trust leads to people pleasing, over tolerating, and losing connection with their own worth.

Through personal stories and client breakthroughs, she explores how being overly empathetic can actually lead to self-abandonment, why being “too understanding” hurts more than it helps, and how to finally rebuild your self-trust from the inside out.
