Powerful Parents Series Episode 6: Jane's* Story School Leader Reveals How She Turned Her HSP Struggles Into Career Success
What if the very thing you thought was holding you back from career success...
Was actually the key to unlocking your full potential?
That's exactly what happened for our next Powerful Parents podcast guest, Jane*.
As a highly sensitive person (HSP) and mother to a highly sensitive daughter, Jane struggled for years with self-doubt and feeling overwhelmed.
She knew she wanted to make an impact but questioned her skills to take on a leadership role in her city's public school system.
And her inner critic kept telling her she couldn't handle the pressure.
Then, everything changed when Jane joined our bootcamp program for her daughter, Amy*.
Through the transformation we created in her household, Jane discovered:
How to turn her sensitivity into a leadership superpower
The exact strategies to stay grounded and focused under pressure
How to create a home environment that supports her whole family's resilience
Fast forward to today, and Jane has earned not one, but TWO promotions in her school system.
She's using the same tools she learned in bootcamp to support the students, parents and staff she serves.
And best of all? Her daughter Amy is thriving right alongside her.
The frequency, intensity and duration of Amy's meltdowns have significantly declined since bootcamp– they are now once in a blue moon whereas 3+/day was the norm.
She's more articulate with her feelings and proactively problem-solves without prompting.
Proof that when HSP parents thrive, their sensitive kids do too.
In this inspiring episode, Jane shares:
How she transformed her mindset around her own sensitivity
The specific tools and routines that have reduced Amy's meltdowns and increased her flexibility
How she's implemented bootcamp strategies like validation and restorative practices in her school leadership
If you've ever felt like your sensitivity was a liability in your career...
