October 15, 2025

Conquering loneliness isn’t just about meeting new people—it’s about changing the way you relate to yourself and the world. In the audiobook The Emotionally Sensitive Person: Finding Peace When Your Emotions Overwhelm You, psychologist Karyn D. Hall unpacks the quiet fears and harsh self-judgments that keep us at a distance from the connection we crave. With clarity and compassion, she offers practical tools for breaking those patterns and building relationships that feel genuine and nourishing.

It’s natural to protect yourself from hurt, but that self-protection can sometimes deepen the very loneliness you’re trying to avoid. In this excerpt from The Emotionally Sensitive Person: Finding Peace When Your Emotions Overwhelm You, Hall reveals how small, intentional shifts in thinking and behavior can help you begin conquering loneliness from the inside out. Whether you’re healing from painful experiences, struggling with self-doubt, or unsure how to reach out, this episode is a powerful reminder: connection is possible, and it starts with you.
