Jenn Granneman and Andre Sólo explain the science behind being a sensitive person and aim to destigmatize the perception of sensitivity as a weakness.

Have you ever been told you are too sensitive? Have you ever thought someone else is?

You might be surprised to hear that being highly sensitive is far from a disadvantage.

Jenn Granneman and Andre Sólo are the co-founders of Sensitive Refuge, the world's largest website for sensitive people. Sensitive Refuge provides a forum for highly sensitive people to share their experiences.

In their 2023 book, Granneman and Sólo, who both identify as sensitive, seek to demystify our understanding of the trait and bust the myth that it is a source of weakness.
