- Tools to Help the Sensitive Thrive in a Chaotic World
You probably already know what this masterclass is about. It teaches highly sensitive people (HSPs) the tools that work to calm a sensitive nervous system. Tools that many HSPs, including Julie, have used successfully to achieve a state of calm. Learn more here.
2. Letter to Give Practitioners
Highly Sensitive people are often misdiagnosed when they go to seek mental health and medical services. Because not everyone understands the trait of high sensitivity or the fact that it exists.
And to avoid this scenario, Julie has written a letter explaining the trait and it’s available on her website as a free download.
3. Sensitivity Quiz
Don’t know or aren’t sure if you have the trait of high sensitivity? Based on the original HSP quiz by Dr Elaine N. Aron, Julie has created a simple and in-depth quiz to help you out.
4. The HSP Blog
Julie writes informational articles on issues that HSPs struggle with and publishes them on her HSP blog. The articles are full of research, tools, and perspectives on living life as an empowered HSP. And occasionally, she will publish a guest post.
5. HSP Podcast
If you prefer to listen to podcasts over reading blog posts, Julie has you covered. She hosts a weekly HSP podcast where she does meditations, invites guests, and co-hosts with Willow McIntosh – founder of Inluminance.
6. HSP Directories
Julie knows how hard it is to find the right people when you need them. So she’s created 4 directories so far and made them available to all HSPs visiting her website, at no cost. The directories are as follows:
- HSP Practitioners Directory – Find a list of mental health and medical health professionals, Coaches, Healers and Educators who understand the trait of high sensitivity.
- HSP-Owned Business Directory – Want to support or hire a business owned by an HSP? Julie has a list of such businesses. And if you’re the business owner, you too can join the list.

- HSP Dating Directory – If you’re an HSP looking to date another HSP and aren’t sure where to start? Julie has a free directory for that.

8. Courses
There are four courses to Julie’s name. And they include the following:
- HSP Brain Training – According to Julie, HSPs have particular brain differences that make you susceptible to high stress, overwhelm, and anxiety. In this course, Julie teaches how to train your brain to reduce anxiety and overwhelming emotions.
- Blooming Brilliantly – This course is about understanding and loving who you are as a sensitive person. In it, Julie teaches you how to set healthy boundaries, advocate for your needs, protect your energy, grow more self-compassion and self-love, and improve relationships.
- Grow Your Heart-Centered Online Business – In this course, Julie teaches what helped her grow a dream online business that helps people throughout the world. So you can also feel empowered to start and grow an online business as an HSP.
- The HSP Toolbox – This course shares holistic tools to calm a sensitive nervous system. Because as many HSPs know, having a sensitive nervous system in a world not set up for high sensitivity can be highly challenging. And Julie wants to share with you the tools that work for her and other HSPs.
9. Sensitive Empowerment Community
Julie’s Sensitive Empowerment Community is a place for HSPs to ask questions, get support, learn about the trait, and find true personal empowerment. The community offers training, gives access to private groups, and hosts guest presenters.
