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 #49: Highly Sensitive People, Burnout, and the Power of Boundaries with Ibinye Osibodu-Onyali
Today I’m joined by licensed marriage and family therapist and coach Ibinye Osibodu-Onyali. She shares her personal journey of discovering high sensitivity and how that realization transformed the way she approaches her work, relationships, and daily life.
We explore the reasons that so many HSPs feel exhausted, especially those who are high-achieving and constantly over-giving. Ibinye also opens up about perfectionism, emotional depth, and the importance of creating a life that truly supports your sensitivity instead of working against it.

This conversation is a powerful one, whether you struggle with bipolar disorder yourself or long to help those who do feel more grounded, supported, and at peace.

Today I’m joined by Claire Thomas. She’s a registered nutritional therapist, NLP Practitioner, and phlebotomist who empowers busy, high-achieving women to increase their energy levels, strengthen their resilience, and do more of what they love.
We talk about how energy levels, nutrition, and even brain function can play a much bigger role in our health than we realize. So, if you’re wondering why you’re always feeling so exhausted, overstimulated, or downright hangry — and if there’s anything you can do about it —then this episode is for you.
Episode #38: High Sensitivity, Women’s Health, and the Cost of “Powering Through” with Maria Saucedo
Today I’m joined by PhD student and women’s health advocate Maria Saucedo. Together, we explore the nuances of overstimulation, what happens when we consistently cross our personal thresholds, and the constant pressure as HSPs to fit in and “power through.”
We also dive into women’s health, cyclical energy, and how science and lived experience blend to shape our lives. So, if you’ve ever wondered why you react so strongly after being pushed past your limits, or you’ve been afraid that your sensitivity was the symptom of a mental health disorder, then this episode is for you.
