As a human being, especially a highly sensitive person, you’re going to have lots of feelings, many of which will be “negative” ones. Especially when it comes to the things we care most about, such as our marriages and relationships.

Does this mean you have to suffer through them, grin and bear it, or resign yourself to having an unhappy life and relationship? Of course not. You can, of course, thrive in life and love.


But that will depend on how healthy your relationship with your own emotions is.


This episode is a deep but quick dive into how to safely feel your feelings, so you can develop a great relationship with them and feel safe and confident no matter what comes up in your love life.



For you, HSP, with your big feelings (or long-lasting-won’t-let-up-easily feelings), this episode is gold! So buckle up and bring a pen and notebook, because there are so many gems to take note of today. We cover:

  • 4 reasons you want to learn to safely feel your emotions and the benefits that you’ll start to experience when you do

  • Why doing so will be one of the best things you’ve ever done to have a great marriage

  • What emotions actually are and are NOT

  • A specific process to get you started

  • What feeling your feelings does not mean and the mistake it's so easy to make

  • Troubleshooting and tips for how to develop this most essential skill

  • Little adjustments for those with trauma

  • A great metaphor to help you get the feel of this skill so it feels like the loving peace-inducing approach it is (instead of torture!)

This is at the very top of the most essential skills we can learn as HSPs --and humans-- to have better relationships and be more successful in any arena in our life.


If all of us become masters of this, our world would be such a different and more loving place. It starts with you learning it and reaping the rewards in your own life and marriage.

Learning how to safely feel your emotions is an important step toward self-awareness and personal growth. Similarly, in professional and personal projects, having a structured resource capacity plan can help manage time and energy effectively. Just as understanding your emotions creates balance, planning resources wisely ensures smoother and more efficient outcomes in various aspects of life.

Understanding how to safely feel and process your emotions is such an important part of personal growth. It’s great to see a focus on emotional well-being. On a related note, for those working in digital product management or any field requiring emotional intelligence in decision-making, I found a comprehensive guide https://www.sembly.ai/blog/the-complete-manual-for-digital-product-management/ on digital product management at Sembly. It offers valuable strategies that can help you approach challenges with clarity and understanding, similar to how we approach managing our emotions in a healthy way.
