Silent Silkie meets a woman who is the catalyst for change.

HSP’s are often misunderstood for their sensitive radar in the world.
This serves them if they learn accept themselves, and doesn’t work if they are taught to shame myself. in my ebook: Misunderstood No More: Untangled By Love; I use characters to explore human scenarios, and use names like Terrified Tina, Silent Silkie, Trusting Tara, and others, and impacts of the critic with in ourselves and in the world.
“I believe that millions of teenagers walk away from education, as they feel misunderstood, maligned, and marginalised by a system that narrows or eliminates their potential. and I believe it doesn’t have to be this way”. Sue Bayley

I have learned over mynlifetime to reframe my perception of sensitive. I no longer see myself as mad, bad or sad, on my better days.
I have learned what triggers me, and painted, danced, written, shouted and cried about it.
NOW I AM ME for ALL TO SEE learning to be visible.
You can too.
“Cry baby!”
“Scaredy-cat!”
“Don’t be a spoilsport”
Echoes from the past?
And how about this well-meaning warning: “You’re just too sensitive for your own good”.
