Ep 16 | The Sensitive Woman with Spark

In this episode, Melissa Jean Paulson, MSW, Integrative Mental Health + Quantum Biology Health practitioner and creator of Heart Wisdom Re-Alignment™, speaks directly to the sensitive woman with spark.

This is the high-capacity, high-functioning, deeply reflective woman who:
• Feels deeply and acts boldly
• Takes courageous leaps
• Moves across the country
• Leaves misaligned relationships
• Leads in her family or career
• Desires meaning, resonance, and truth
• Has a finely tuned nervous system that braces under chronic stress

If you are the woman who follows your heart… and then lies awake wondering if you made the right decision…
If you are capable, responsible, and strong… yet often feel high-strung beneath the surface…
If you crave aliveness and alignment, but your nervous system feels perpetually “on”…
This conversation is for you.

Melissa explores:
• The highly sensitive trait and its nuanced expression
• The difference between fragility and sensory intelligence
• Why high-capacity women often override their own nervous system
• How chronic sympathetic dominance becomes “normal”
• The link between stress, inflammation, digestion, and autoimmune patterns
• Why courageous action still requires recovery time

High sensitivity is not a flaw. It is depth of processing. It is perception. It is meaning-seeking. But when sensitivity is paired with spark, drive, and courage, the nervous system must be tended intentionally.

This episode is both validation and invitation. You are not too much. You are not broken. You are not wrong for feeling deeply and moving boldly. You simply need rhythm. Breath. Recovery. Support.
