Have you ever reached the end of a fairly normal day completely exhausted—and wondered what you did that was so tiring?

As a highly sensitive person, your energy may be going toward much more than the obvious tasks on your schedule. Deep processing, stimulation, worrying, monitoring other people, carrying their problems, managing how you come across, and continuing to think about situations long after they're over can all consume energy. When you don't see those hidden demands, it's easy to turn your exhaustion into a judgment about yourself instead of getting curious about what's actually draining you.

• Understand why you can feel completely wiped out even when your day didn't seem especially demanding.
• Recognize the less obvious ways your sensitive system may be using energy throughout the day.
• Learn how identifying the specific source of your exhaustion can help you respond to what you actually need instead of assuming you should simply push harder or be less sensitive.

Play the episode to discover where your energy may really be going—and start making sense of your exhaustion so you can respond to what's actually
