Break free from shame, self-judgment, and invisibility — learn how to reclaim your true worth and live fully as the sensitive, soulful person you are.

 

Do you ever feel like:

  • No matter how hard you try, you still don’t quite measure up?

  • You hide your sensitivity to avoid being seen as “too much”?

  • Your emotions or insights are dismissed or ignored, leaving you feeling small or ashamed?

  • Criticism or neglect have left deep wounds that you don’t know how to heal?

  • Once you register, you will have access to the webinar, Differential Susceptibility (DS): Designing Your Life and Environment for Positive Outcomes. We will send you the link and you can watch it any time.
  • OR, you could wait until Sunday, August 10th at 2:30 pm Eastern and watch it live in community with the chat open. We will be broadcasting it live on Zoom.
  • AND THEN, we hope you will join us for our live, online DS Discussion Group as part of HSP Tools and Topics hosted by Alane Freund. We’ll take questions, brainstorm MORE tools, and support one another. As always, you are invited to have your mic and video turned off the whole time if that is most comfortable for you. Some people like to just observe or participate in the chat. We welcome all manners of participation.

What is The Undervalued Self?

The Undervalued Self is Elaine Aron’s powerful guide for the Highly Sensitive Person (HSP) who has suffered emotionally from being belittled, ignored, or invalidated. It illuminates how early experiences of shame, neglect, or abuse can lead to deep self-doubt, self-criticism, and feeling unworthy — and offers pathways to self-compassion, healing, and reclaiming empowerment.

What You’ll Gain from This Webinar

By attending, you’ll:

  • Understand what it means to be “undervalued” from an emotional and psychological perspective
  • Identify how the trait of high sensitivity interacts with feelings of shame, unworthiness, or invisibility
  • Explore reproach, voice, and validation — both external and internal — and how they shape your self‐image
  • Learn specific tools and practices from the book to begin healing: self-compassion, boundary setting, honoring your sensitivity
  • Get to connect with others who genuinely understand what you’re going through
  • Leave with a clear plan of how you can start valuing yourself, day by day

Who This is For

This webinar is made for you if you:

  • Recognize yourself as sensitive, empathic, thoughtful — and weary of hiding that part of you

  • Have been told or have felt that you are “too sensitive,” “too emotional,” or “not doing enough”

  • Carry unresolved shame or inner critic voices that make you feel invisible or not enough

  • Want to shift from self-judgment to self-acceptance and strengthen your resilience

Why It Matters

Because when you continue to believe you are undervalued, you:

  • Carry shame that keeps you from the fullness of connection and joy

  • Do not speak or act from your authentic self

  • Risk burnout, anxiety, self-neglect, depression

But when you heal those wounds, you can:

  • Live from a place of truth, dignity, and self-validation

  • Embrace your sensitivity as a strength, not something to be hidden

  • Build healthier relationships, say what you need, and be seen
