Why read it?

2 authors picked Sensitive Is the New Strong as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

I was aware of and had been in classes and workshops led by Anita Moorjani before I ever picked up this book. I took Sensitive is the New Strong on a spiritual retreat in the mountains of Big Sur, California and I devoured it. It felt like for the first time in my life that someone else really knew what it felt like to be so tender-hearted, so doubted by others who are not psychic or empathic, and so impacted by other people's projections and energy. It was a HUGE relief as I read the book cover to cover in…

I love this book from Anita – it feels like it resonates a lot with the messages in my original book on the empath experience yet includes some other stories and anecdotes that can relate to an even broader audience. I appreciate her core thesis that empaths are really the world’s healers especially at this time – here to teach empathy, compassion, and true connection simply by being who they truly are.
