When you’re highly attuned to everyone around you, it can become surprisingly difficult to hear yourself.
In this 45-minute workshop, we’ll explore why sensitive people so often learn to look outside themselves for cues about who to be, and how to begin reconnecting with your own feelings, preferences, and inner signals.

Recalibration for Sensitives
We’ve all heard: “Just be yourself.”
But being yourself isn’t always so simple.
Many sensitive people learn early that certain ways of being are easier for other people to understand or accept.
Maybe you learned to be agreeable.
To keep the messier emotions to yourself.
To follow the rules and get things right.
To notice what everyone else was feeling before you noticed yourself.
To become very good at adjusting.
We adapt to belong. To feel safe, accepted, and lovable.
But over time, we can become unsure of our own needs, disconnected from our emotions, and better at reading everyone else than listening to ourselves.
At some point, the cost of that becomes exhausting.
The distance between what we show and what we feel can tell us something.
In the workshop, I’ll guide you through a simple inside/outside self exercise.
You’ll explore what other people tend to see on the outside vs. what may actually be happening on the inside.
The point isn’t to judge the difference or force yourself to become more exposed.
It’s to get curious about it. When we understand that, we can begin relating to those patterns differently.

One way back is to start listening inward.
When we’re used to looking to other people for cues, our own responses can be harder to hear.
One place to begin is the body.
I’ll guide you through a simple practice for noticing how a yes or a no may feel physically, and what happens when you pause long enough to notice your own response before immediately looking outside yourself for the answer.
The body carries information and learning to notice it is one way of getting to know yourself more deeply.

“It felt like Brooke painted a picture of a brighter future for me. I wasn't able to paint that picture, I was stuck deeply, but I was able to look at her picture and hear how..she painted a brighter picture for herself."

Brooke is more than a coach, her work helps to transform patterning, trauma and belief systems that impact every area of your life into tools that help you thrive.
“After 58 years of living my life feeling not-good-enough, I now feel like I'm stepping into a world where it's ok to be myself."
I’ve spent nearly twenty years helping people understand what lives beneath the obvious.
I’m Brooke Nielsen Yang, a coach, guide, and licensed marriage and family therapist. My work is especially shaped by sensitivity, neurodivergence, trauma, the nervous system, and the ways we learn to adapt in order to belong.
I created Coming Home to Yourself because I know personally how easy it is to become skilled at sensing and responding to everyone else while losing contact with parts of your own experience.
I also know how much can begin to shift when we start listening again.
