For us as HSPs, the art of detachment is really connected to the mastery of three significant HSP shadow tendencies: overwhelm, perfectionism, and analysis-paralysis.
When I first started having selling conversations, I used to get so worked up because I took the idea of being told "no" very personally. Of course, there was the genuine fear of being able to pay my bills, but I had to learn that though there is a connection between the service I provide and the bills I have to pay, they are NOT interconnected.
This is where the mastery part comes into the process. To be able to be 100% present to the person in front of me and to get clear about what the person needs by guiding them through a thoughtful, discovery, decision-making process, while receiving compensation as part of providing that service.
The more I learned to lean into this mastery practice and to trust the process, the calmer my nervous system became, the more fine-tuned my intuitive skills sharpened, and the more I was able to truly help, support, and serve those in front of me.
It's quite extraordinary, actually. I would say it's the highest ground of personal and spiritual growth. And one of the extreme honors of being an HSP in business and leadership. If you'd like to take this deeper immediately, I have a quick 10-minute jumpstart training for you on YouTube.
