Publisher's summary
“This important book reframes the way we think about sensitivity—our own or someone else’s—and shines a light on the great power in being highly attuned to the world.”—Susan Cain, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Bittersweet and Quiet
A paradigm-shifting look at a long-undervalued yet hugely beneficial personality trait, from the creators of the world’s largest community for highly sensitive people
“Don’t be so sensitive!”
Everyone has a sensitive side, but nearly one in three people have the genes to be more sensitive than others—both physically and emotionally. These are the people who pause before speaking and think before acting; they tune in to subtle details and make connections that others miss. Whether introverted or extroverted, they tend to be bighearted, creative, and wired to go deep, yet society tells them to hide the very sensitivity that makes them this way. These are the world’s “highly sensitive people,” and Sensitive is the book that champions them.
From the creators of the world’s largest community for sensitive people, Sensitive teaches us how to unlock the potential in this undervalued strength and leverage it across the most important areas of our lives: friendships and intimate relationships, the workplace, leadership, and parenting. Through fascinating research and expert storytelling, Jenn Granneman and Andre Sólo—sensitive people themselves—show us that the way to thrive as a sensitive person is not to hide our sensitivity but to embrace it, and how to do that in every area of life. Weaving together actionable advice, relatable anecdotes, and the latest scientific research, Granneman and Sólo demonstrate how leaning into sensitivity unlocks a powerful boost effect to propel us ahead in life. They hand us the tools and insights we need to thrive as sensitive people in a loud, fast, too-much world.
A powerfully validating, destigmatizing, and practical book, Sensitive plants a gently fluttering flag in the ground for sensitive people everywhere. This inspiring book has the power to change, once and for all, how we see sensitive people—and how they see themselves.

Is there a hidden part of you that no one else sees? Do you have a vivid inner world of thoughts and emotions that your peers and loved ones can't seem to access? Have you ever been told you're too quiet, shy, boring, or awkward? Are your habits and comfort zones questioned by a society that doesn't seem to get you? If so, you might be an introvert. On behalf of those who have long been misunderstood, rejected, or ignored, fellow introvert Jenn Granneman writes a compassionate vindication.

We all experience stuckness in our lives. We feel stuck in our relationships, career paths, body struggles, addiction issues, and more. Many of us know what we need to do to move forward—but find ourselves unable to take the leap to make it happen. And then we blame and shame ourselves, and stay in a loop of self-doubt that goes nowhere. The good news is you’re not lazy, crazy, or unmotivated. In this empowering and action-oriented guide, you’ll discover why we can’t think our way forward—and how to break through what’s holding us back.

Statistics show that 50 percent of what determines divorce is genetic temperament. And, if you are one of the 20 percent of people who are born highly sensitive, the risk of an unhappy relationship is especially high. Your finely tuned nervous system, which picks up on subtleties and reflects deeply, would be a romantic asset if both you and your partner understood you better. But without that understanding, your sensitivity is likely to be making your close relationships painful and complicated.

None of us had a perfect childhood; we are all carrying around behaviors that don’t serve us—and may in fact be hurting us. But it doesn’t have to be that way, says licensed marriage and family therapist Vienna Pharaon. Our past might create our patterns, but we can change those patterns for the better...with the right tools. In The Origins of You, Pharaon has unlocked a healing process to help us understand our Family of Origin—the family and framework we grew up within—and examine what worked (and didn’t) in that system.

In The Serendipity Mindset, Christian Busch explains that serendipity isn't about luck in the sense of simple randomness. It's about seeing links that others don't, combining these observations in unexpected and strategic ways, and learning how to detect the moments when apparently random or unconnected ideas merge to form new opportunities. Busch explores serendipity from a rational and scientific perspective and argues that there are identifiable approaches we can use to foster the conditions to let serendipity grow.

Story
In The Upside of Your Dark Side, two pioneering researchers in the field of psychology show that while mindfulness, kindness, and positivity can take us far, they cannot take us all the way. Sometimes, they can even hold us back. Emotions like anger, anxiety, or doubt might be uncomfortable, but it turns out that they are also incredibly useful.

Story
Onward tackles the problem of educator stress, and provides a practical framework for taking the burnout out of teaching. Stress is part of the job, but when 70 percent of teachers quit within their first five years because the stress is making them physically and mentally ill, things have gone too far. Unsurprisingly, these effects are highest in difficult-to-fill positions such as math, science, and foreign languages, and in urban areas and secondary classrooms - places where we need our teachers to be especially motivated and engaged.

Success in work, love, and life depends on developing habits that activate the powerful prefrontal cortex when we need it most. Unfortunately, under stress, the human brain tends to revert to emotional habits we forged in toddlerhood: blame, denial, avoidance, reacting to a jerk like a jerk, and turning our connections into cold shoulders - or worse. In Soar Above, renowned relationship expert Dr. Steven Stosny offers a groundbreaking formula for building new, pressure-resistant habits.

How would you like to be calmer, less distracted, more productive, and more content at your job? You might think it would take more hours in the day, a better boss, more support, less interference, a shorter commute - and the list goes on. Most of the things we think would help are either not in our control or simply not realistic. But there is one thing we can do to achieve the qualities we seek, and it can be done invisibly and often: meditation.

Being a highly sensitive person means you’re probably highly misunderstood and you may feel like you’re too empathetic for your own good. Your intuition and empathy create situations where you always put others first and say “yes” to everything, regardless of how you feel or what you need. As a result, you end up in unhealthy relationship dynamics that leave you exhausted, resentful, and stressed.

Your finely tuned nervous system, which picks up on subtleties and reflects deeply, would be a romantic asset if both you and your partner understood you better.

At least one-third of the people we know are introverts. They are the ones who prefer listening to speaking; who innovate and create but dislike self-promotion; who favor working on their own over working in teams. It is to introverts - Rosa Parks, Chopin, Dr. Seuss, Steve Wozniak - that we owe many of the great contributions to society.

The Empath's Survival Guide is an invaluable resource for empaths who want to develop coping skills in a high-stimulus world while embracing their gifts of intuition, compassion, creativity, and spiritual connection.

I have never felt quite so seen and understood as I did listening to this audiobook. Thank you for taking the time to research and put this information, that I know in my bones to be true, into a form that can be digested even by those who are not “sensitive” and who believe claiming to be a highly sensitive person is akin to claiming to be a fortune teller or psychic.

SHHHHH!
30% of the population is sensitive, so odds are, you are, or know someone sensitive. You might not have the words or awareness to describe exactly what that means, but it’s not hard to figure out. Sensitive people feel more deeply. They absorb more of the sensory overload from this crazy world. They can sense what others are feeling. They see the world at a deeper, more colorful level. Granneman’s goal in this book is to help everyone identify and be aware of sensitive people, how they might be different from less sensitive people, and identify ways that being sensitive can be a superpower. She describes five gifts of sensitivity: empathy, creativity, sensory intelligence, depth of processing, and depth of emotion. These gifts are powerful when they are identified and leveraged. Unfortunately, sensitive people are often misunderstood and treated differently because of their reactions to our too much, too loud, too fast world. Sensitive people are especially drawn to narcissistic people because of their empathy. Transitions are hard for sensitive people because of the depth and engagement they experience. Granneman also talks about how to help sensitive kids, which I found to be particularly helpful and affirming because both of my kids are sensitive, though in different ways. Jet is deeply empathic, so I learned that I need to help him move from empathy to compassion. That helps him move from feeling the emotions strongly, to focusing on how to help. I learned and relearned a lot going through this book. I’m certainly more aware of what sensitive behavior looks like, and I intend to do better about helping my sensitive people cope instead of telling them to toughen up. Thanks, Aunt Sandra for recommending this book.
This is for everyone seeking to understand people better.

Validating!
Incredibly validating and also had a lot of great take-aways. I especially enjoyed the chapter on parenting kids who are highly sensitive — I’d like all of my childrens’ caregivers to read that chapter.
Did anyone else feel a bit exhausted while reading? The examples were overwhelming to this HSP but again, validating and important to read. It also took me a little longer than normal because I went back to re-read so many passages.
Recommend to all HSPs and I recommend chapter 8 to all caregivers of HSP children.

Wow!
This book is excellent.
I recently discovered that I am a highly sensitive person, and this book helped illuminate so many aspects of my life. It helped me feel validated and helped me understand the “why” behind my experience in the world.
The authors’ writing is masterful and compelling; you won’t want to put it down. The organization and flow of the content is very well-crafted.
The narration by Patty Nieman is superb. She does so well at expressing the tone behind the writing and is enjoyable to listen to.

I wish I had this maturing up. It explains so much to me. And as I continue to grow in my personal work, definitely adds to my evolution, my understanding, and my self-love. So well written!

I'm so grateful for this book.
It has answered so many questions. For years I've felt like something was really wrong with me. As my journey continues and with the tremendous help from this book, I feel reassured that I'm not alone. I have recommended this book to like minded friends. I also purchased the hard copy to keep for reference and to give to my husband as an "operations manual", to give him better insight as to how I tick.
