There’s a sneaky thing we do as humans, especially as Highly Sensitive People—we subtly absorb our struggles into our identity.
We don’t mean to. But when something difficult lasts long enough, it’s easy to start thinking:
“I am a person who struggles.”
“This is just how life is for me.”
“I have to work harder than most people.”
“I can’t seem to catch a break.”
At first, these are just observations. But over time, they become truths we unknowingly commit to, and the universe—always in agreement—echoes back: “Yes.”
Your Higher Self Set a Tripwire
What if your challenges weren’t just random struggles, but actually a tripwire your higher self set up to wake you up?
What if the breakdown isn’t a sign that you’re failing but a call to rise into a version of yourself that wouldn’t have emerged otherwise?
The tricky part? We don’t get to choose the timeline. We can’t force ourselves into peace and acceptance overnight. But we can start recognizing that our circumstances are not our identity. They are experiences, and we have the power to shift them.
How to Start Shifting Today
1️⃣ Catch Your Old Identity Stories. Notice how you define yourself. If you find yourself saying, "I always struggle with XYZ," pause and ask: Is this a fact, or is it just something I’ve been reinforcing?
2️⃣ Move Up the Ladder. If you can’t shift from "struggle" to "abundance" in one leap, go step by step:
“Maybe I can receive as easily as others.”
“Maybe things are shifting for me in ways I can’t see yet.”
“I am open to new experiences that prove my old story wrong.”
3️⃣ Feed Your Own Energy. If your energy is depleted, no amount of mindset work will stick. Prioritize self-nourishment—whether that’s through rest, movement, creativity, or spiritual connection.
