Have you ever been told to keep your gifts to yourself? What if the very thing you were taught to hide is actually the thing the world needs from you most?On this episode of The Higher Self Hotline, Zoey talks with Dr. Judith Orloff, UCLA psychiatric faculty member and author of The Empath's Survival Guide and Second Sight, about what it actually means to be an empath and how to protect your energy day to day.Dr. Orloff opens up about a family that told her to hide her intuitive gifts and the deathbed revelation that changed everything, then gets practical on the difference between empathy and being an empath, the tools she uses to stop absorbing everyone else's emotions, and why partnership can be hard for empaths.In this episode:00:00 Welcome to The Higher Self Hotline02:10 Growing Up Without Support09:37 The Deathbed Revelation13:05 Empathy vs. Being an Empath17:26 Debunking the Trauma Theory28:41 Observation vs. Absorption40:52 Empaths in Relationships52:17 The Highly Sensitive RabbitStay in touch with Dr. Judith Orloff:Website: https://www.drjudithorloff.comInstagram: https://instagram.com/judith.orloff.mdFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/DrJudithOrloff/Books mentioned in this episode:The Empath's Survival Guide: https://drjudithorloff.com/empath-survival-guide-description/Second Sight: https://drjudithorloff.com/second-sight-description/Meet me in the studio: Watch the episode on Youtube https://youtu.be/MSPDmNA7USATake my FREE quiz!What’s your intuitive style?
