The Educated Empath Angela E Boswell

Does this sound like you?
"Throughout my life, people have advised me to "not care so much", to "be less passionate", to "stop putting others ahead of myself", and I internalized these statements to mean that something was wrong with me, I wasn't normal. No matter how tough I tried to be, or tried to shut down, I could not turn off my internal nature of feeling so intensely. I also felt like I had no way of defending myself from people who wanted to take advantage of me, I had no concept of self-protection. It took many years, and much self-work to address these issues and to understand that my innate nature and abilities did not need to be shut down, but needed to be understood, balanced, and utilized in ways that were healthy for me, not making me a target for more pain and disappointment." -- Chapter 1, The Educated Empath.
