Are You Highly Sensitive With Alissa Boyer

Today I am joined by Alissa Boyer. Alissa is a hardworking Minnesota girl. She moved to California when she was 22-years-old to pursue a career in the fashion industry. Her first job was in a fast-paced, high-stress retail environment. As a highly sensitive, deeply empathetic person, working in this type of environment was jarring for me. She did her best to develop a “thick skin”, but within a few months of my new job, Alissa was diagnosed with severe digestive issues that were induced by the constant anxiety and stress in her life.

What felt like a tragedy at the time, ended up being the best thing that could’ve ever happened to me. Being diagnosed with Leaky Gut and SIBO forced Alissa to look at the way she was treating herself and her body. The only way she could fully heal was by learning to reduce her anxiety and stress. So, she got serious about it. Alissa dove deep into the world of self-help, personal development, and emotional healing.

We talk about what is a highly sensitive person, how to communicate with your partner about being highly sensitive, and how being highly sensitive is a strength.
