Oh, and don’t forget your VIP backstage pass…
For sensitive professionals, navigating ambitious environments can feel like a constant tug-of-war. Do we lean into our empathy and intuition, or toughen up to fit the mould? But what if the very sensitivity we often question is the key to our success?
That’s exactly what we’re exploring in this episode of The Sensitive Professionals Podcast.
I’m joined by the inspiring Emily Daley—a business owner who blends transformative coaching, UX research, and her deep passion for understanding people. Emily’s journey from fintech trading floors to building a values-driven career demonstrates the transformative power of empathy, intuition, and embracing one’s sensitive nature.
We explore what it means to reconcile ambition with sensitivity and reframe vulnerability as a strength, not a setback.
