Non-Negotiable Boundaries
July 14, 2026
Do you want to have stronger boundaries, but end up putting others first out of guilt? Your boundaries are essential in getting enough downtime and making sure you don't feel trapped in overwhelm mode all the time. When you're more empathetic than most and tend to overthink things, figuring out when to set a boundary and navigating feelings of discomfort are difficult.
In this workshop, you'll identify what boundaries are non-negotiable for you, how to set limits even if you've never felt comfortable doing so before, and start to get your needs met more often.
Honor Your Needs Without Guilt
August 11, 2026
What’s the biggest reason you say “yes” to an invite or request when you’re exhausted, stressed, or just not interested? It’s often guilt.
As a highly sensitive person, it's easy to bypass your needs to avoid feeling guilty about disappointing someone else. Letting guilt run the show comes at a high cost - overwhelm, anxiety, burnout, resentment.
In this workshop, you’ll begin to recognize the impact of sacrificing your own well being, learn a step-by-step process to release feelings of guilt, and finally start putting yourself first.
Grief of Feeling Deeply
September 8, 2026
Did you grow up feeling different from everyone around you? Was there pressure to be less emotional and careful or more sponaneous and decisive? Most highly sensitive people don't discover why they're more emotional, thoughtful, or empathetic until much later in life. This realization can feel like a relief, to finally have language for your complex experience, but it can also bring up feelings of deep sadness from not having your needs met, years of being misunderstood, or lost time in figuring it out.
In this workshop, you'll take a step towards self-acceptance of your sensitivity, learn ways to heal the grief by reconnecting with your inner child, and identify ways to care deeply for yourself now. It’s not too late!

Live Workshop + Recordings
To better understand your sensitivity and how to care for your different needs, the Sessions explore a different HSP-related theme each month using instruction, journaling, and mindfulness exercises. Whether or not you attend the sessions live, you'll have access to the recording for at least 30 days. You'll also be able to watch sessions from the previous six months as well.
Digital Workbook
To build on the insights and tools learned in the workshops, each month you'll receive a 10+ page workbook. Workbooks include the most important information and reflections on that month’s theme. You can print the low-ink version or fill out the digital PDF on your computer.
Community Connection
Being in a space created just for HSPs can help you feel less alone and make it easier to recognize your unique needs for balance and meaningful experiences.

What past participants have shared…
Hi, I’m April Snow, LMFT
I’m a licensed psychotherapist and author in California who specializes in working with HSPs to help them overcome the stress and anxiety of living in a busy, overwhelming world.
Using mindfulness, self-compassion, journaling, and other experiential practices, I help HSPs fully understand their unique needs, release the guilt of prioritizing those needs, and start creating a life on their own terms so that their sensitive strengths can shine through.
Ready to put yourself first more often, calm the overwhelm, and feel recharged?
