Written conversations · Camera-optional gatherings · Your own pace
Connection that fits your life
Connection matters. So does your energy.
Perhaps you long for people who understand the depth of your feelings, your need for recovery time, or how much effort everyday life can take. You might enjoy your own company and still wish for a few familiar people to share life with.
Here, connection can begin with recognizing yourself in a conversation, responding to a question, or listening at an online gathering. You choose the pace and the way you participate.
This can become a place that quietly holds you through difficult seasons of your life.
Included with membership
People to connect with.
Support to explore.
Everyday written connection
Read and join conversations about sensitivity, neurodivergence, relationships, changing energy, and ordinary life. Ask a question, share something meaningful, or respond when you have the words.
Camera-optional live gatherings
Meet other members in online Meet & Greets and member-hosted gatherings. The Sages group offers a monthly gathering for adults 55+. Speaking and listening are both welcome.
150+ recordings, at your own pace
Explore teachings, conversations, and workshops on nervous system care, boundaries, sensory needs, grief, relationships, and self-acceptance. Choose what feels useful today.
Your Self-Discovery Journey
Membership includes this gentle, self-paced course at no extra cost. Explore your needs, values, and patterns, and make more room for what fits you.
Personal story-sharing gatherings are not recorded. The library offers educational recordings to explore in your own time.
Different experiences. Shared understanding.
Highly sensitive, neurodivergent, or still exploring?
Being highly sensitive is enough to belong here. Autistic, ADHD, and AuDHD adults are equally welcome, along with people still exploring how to understand their experiences. You’re welcome with or without a formal diagnosis.
For those discovering they are autistic in adulthood, there is room to explore what this means alongside other members. Whether you are here for sensitivity, neurodivergence, or both, choose the conversations that feel relevant to your life.
All genders, adults 18+. Neurodiversity-affirming, LGBTQIA+ affirming, and welcoming of BIPOC members.
USD $15 for your first month with SENSITIVE, then USD $30/month. Renews monthly until canceled. Cancel anytime.
Room for your real life.
Joy, grief, uncertainty, humor, and difficult days are all part of being human. We welcome honest sharing alongside encouragement, with care for one another’s boundaries.
Connection grows over time. A thoughtful reply or a familiar face can be a beginning. Members participate across time zones and energy levels, so conversations unfold at different speeds.
A gentle place to begin.
Your Start Here page and Community Guide help you find your way. Begin with one conversation, one resource, or one gathering that interests you. There is no need to explore everything at once.
An introduction is optional, and we love getting to know you. Sharing a little about yourself or replying to a post gives connection a place to begin. Quiet participation counts, too.
Founded in 2019 · Led by Julie Bjelland, LMFT
Created with care and lived understanding.
I’m Julie, a psychotherapist, author, and highly sensitive, late-discovered autistic woman. I created this Community as a place for sensitive people to find one another, understand themselves more deeply, and feel less alone.
I bring my professional experience and what I’m learning in my own life to our conversations about self-understanding, nervous system needs, relationships, and belonging. Gracie King helps bring members together through our Meet & Greets.
My hope is that this becomes a familiar place you can return to through different seasons of your life.

A few things you might be wondering
Can I participate quietly or with limited energy?
Quiet participation counts. Read, listen, or take part occasionally. There is no requirement to attend events or keep up with every conversation.
Can I enjoy membership across different time zones?
Yes. Written conversations and the recorded library are available whenever you have time. Live event schedules vary, and attendance is optional. Check each event description for its format and time.
How private is the Community?
Member conversations take place inside a private membership space rather than a public social feed. We ask members to respect one another’s privacy. As with any online group, confidentiality cannot be guaranteed, so choose what feels comfortable to share.
Is this therapy or crisis support?
This is a peer community with therapist-led education and moderation, rather than therapy, clinical care, or crisis support. Membership does not include individual sessions or immediate replies.
Can I cancel my membership?
Yes. For a web purchase, use a desktop browser and go to Personal Settings > Plans and Access > Cancel Subscription. Your access continues through the end of your paid billing period. Cancel before your next renewal to avoid the next charge.
What about the Heart-Centered Business Group?
Business access is a separate, optional paid offering for entrepreneurial and professional connection. It is outside the standard Community membership.
