Episode 3

What’s the difference between an Empath and an HSP (Highly Sensitive Person)?

Today on The Wildheart Diaries, I’m talking about other names for Wildhearts – like HSP, Empath, Intuitive and Indigo Child amongst others. If you missed the first part of this long chat about how the name Wildheart came to be and the specific personality traits and qualities of a Wildheart, listen here. Remember, nobody is defined by a check list. Humans are so much more nuanced than that. Please take what resonates and leave the rest.
