Happy HSP
The
Podcast
Are you a highly sensitive person (HSP) who often feels overwhelmed, misunderstood, or out of place in the world around you? Then The Happy HSP Podcast is just for you, and I’m so glad you’re here.
My name is Kimberly Marshall, and I’m your host. Join me weekly as I dive deep into the personal stories of everyday HSPs. We’ll explore what it means to live life with heightened sensitivity and discover the many reasons to celebrate our gentle nature.
Each episode features an inspiring conversation with an HSP who shares what they love about their sensitivity, what they struggle with, and the powerful strategies they’ve used to find happiness and peace in a world that can easily overwhelm us.

I’m joined by Energy Alignment & Empowerment Coach Nicole Peterhans, and together we talk about the ways sensitivity can shape our childhood, how our fears and insecurities can grow when we don’t feel fully seen or understood, and what can happen when we realize there is far more to who we are than the roles we’ve been living.
