Synopsis

Embrace the gift of your intense emotions and the opportunities which will follow.

This is an audiobook about being successful, fulfilled and happy in a world in which you don't always feel you fit in. Many people are emotionally sensitive and intense and while these characteristics need not limit us, they often hold us back from expressing ourselves, being heard and taking charge of our life, love and work. This audiobook is a complete guide which shows sensitive and intense people how to navigate, successfully and predictably, the fundamental relationships that make up their lives - demonstrating along the way that intense feelings are a gift not a curse.

Grounded in the author's extensive clinical and personal experience, the audiobook advises listeners on challenges such as low self-esteem, family conflicts, loneliness, complex work challenges and times of emotional crisis. Listeners are given actionable steps to change their lives.

Goodreads review by Matthew on July 25, 2021

I have to admit, I felt a bit cheated by this book. I've been following Imi's work for a while, having really enjoyed her first book.

I highly recommend this book for anyone who has ever felt they were too “much,” too “sensitive,” or too “intense.” Research suggests that approximately one-fifth of the global population falls into the category known as Highly Sensitive Persons (HSP).
