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.

Episode #23: How High Sensitivity Shapes HSPs and the World Around Us
Today, I’m joined by Dr. Tracy Cooper. He is a leading expert in our field who is known for his research and a wide-ranging scope of projects. He co-produced the documentary Sensitive Men Rising, authored three books on our trait, and has also published articles in The New York Times and Psychology Today, among other works.
We dive into many HSP-related topics, including his work on high sensation seeking HSPs, HSP men and masculinity, and HSPs in careers. So, if you’re an HSP who loves to think deeply about the entire picture of high sensitivity and explore our trait from a variety of angles, then this episode is for you.
Episode #11: The HSP Journey in Empathy and Quiet Leadership
If you’ve ever felt the pressure to shrink yourself to be liked, hide your emotions, or embrace a leadership style that felt inauthentic, this conversation is for you.
In today’s episode, I’m joined by Barbara Allen-Williams. She’s a therapist, a speaker on high sensitivity, and the author of The Little Book of HSP Wisdom. In this conversation, we talk about how HSPs can embrace authenticity and step into leadership roles with more ease, grace, and impact. We explore why empathy is the foundation for relationship-building, ways to honor our HSP needs, and how sensitivity can be a powerful asset in leadership and life.
