I gained some real insight into HSP. I really enjoyed the essays from other HSPs Thrive: The Highly Sensitive Person and Career Thank you, thank you, thank you! I read this book overnight. I can't tell you how incredible it feels to have many of my thoughts, emotions and experiences of the last 30 years laid out and explained, matched against other peoples' experiences for reflection and with practical suggestions as to how to make better decisions going forward. If you are an HSP, particularly a high sensation seeking HSP, and particularly if you are going down that all too familiar career pattern of burnout in yet another job, this book is for you! Thrive: The Highly Sensitive Person and Career Great book to help you understand your sensitivity & how to use it to better your career Thrive: The Highly Sensitive Person and Career This book is amazing! It really feels like coming home to me and I love the statistics used to support the different characteristics and angles of a HSP. Thrive: The Highly Sensitive Person and Career Very useful, I’ve met the author and he knows his stuff. Thrive: The Highly Sensitive Person and Career

This book is based on the author's doctoral dissertation, which was very interesting and insightful. There are many helpful insights in these pages, but overall, I found the book to be a bit repetitive and I guess I was hoping for of a practical career guide. I suppose the book doesn't advertise itself as a career guide, per se, so the author can't be blamed for not delivering. Also, as interesting as the research was, I found that the quotes pulled from the researcher's qualitative interviews were often distracting than illuminating. Often, the author would kind of dump a chunk of his subjects' verbatim ramblings, many of them not too intelligent or particularly insightful, with little to no editing for clarity, relevance, or succinctness again, probably his editor's fault and not his. But then, instead of explaining the practical, transferable lesson we can extrapolate from the quoted subject's experience or point of view, he often pulls the classic sound like you're saying something without actually saying much college writing trick of basically just summarizing the quote. Anyway, I really wanted to like this book, but I did not personally get much out of it. I was left with the impression that the author is very proud of his dissertation research (as he should be, because the emerging data is very illuminating, indeed!) and was in a hurry to share it with the world, but he might have done better to spend time really zeroing in on the practical implications of his findings as they pertain to career choice before publishing this book. I ultimately returned the book because an interesting summary of research that largely confirmed what I already knew about myself wasn't quite what I was looking for, but if the author or somebody else uses this research to compile a specific, practical guide to HSP careers, I'd buy that right away. Thrive: The Highly Sensitive Person and Career This book is for everyone, not just for highly sensitive people. Right livelihood is a dilemma for all of us, regardless of what stage of life that we're in. Dr. Cooper has provided us with extensive research that provides insight on finding a meaningful career. He emphasizes the need to understand who we are and what we need. Self care is extremely important. This is something that I needed to hear. I found the quotes from other highly sensitive people, the question and answer sections, and learning about the careers of others to be very helpful. Being a writer about the topic of high sensitivity, I gained personal insight and will pass on this knowledge on to others. I highly recommend this book to be a very important resource that should be referred to periodically. Thrive: The Highly Sensitive Person and Career Dr Cooper has invited us in to examine the complexities and contributions of highly sensitive people. This book offers a conceptual and practical understanding into the inner life and world of an HSP.

The depth of processing, the complexity of thought, the desire for creative engagement and the strong need for meaningful exchanges are all reviewed, shedding light on the unique nature of HSP's. Having this extremely sensitive being, without awareness, can be a challenging minefield to navigate.

The real examples shared by the HSP population involved in this study helps personalize and characterize how others have related to their own struggles and triumphs on their learning journey.

This book additionally provides context from a social/cultural, childhood and self care view. This systemic perspective provides an even deeper realization into the intricate web of behaviors.

Dr Cooper does a wonderful job sharing his own personal insight, provides exceptional awareness into the complex nature of HSP's and also has strong recommendations with thriving in life and your career!
A highly insightful book and a must read!! Thrive: The Highly Sensitive Person and Career I have read Dr. Tracy Cooper's book Highly Sensitive Person & Career cover to cover. I wish this book and his blog ([])
existed when I first discovered that I was a highly sensitive extraverted sensation seeker. That was also the time I had just started my career. It would have explained the last 12 years of my working life, both at jobs and as an entrepreneur.

That being said I feel grateful for his exhaustive research and this book. I can now give the book to other HSPs who ask me for career advice, which is happening and nowadays as I am being out about my HSPness.

I particularly appreciated Dr. Cooper's insights on elevating self care to a religious practice. I had to learn this one for myself through the school of business hard knocks. I have now integrated self care deeply into my days, to the point where different self care activities punctuate the 3 main segments of my day. I had been feeling a little guilty about the amount of time I was spending on self care. But Thrive's section on self care validated my decisions and removed all doubts and concerns immediately. Thank you Dr. Cooper!

I also appreciate the recurring theme in the book (and blog) that instead of grouping together in conformity to the HSP label, HSPs should explore the label fully and then hold it loosely enough to expand beyond conformity to the the full experience of being human. Now that is a thought that up levels not just HSPs but all in contact with HSPs. Thrive: The Highly Sensitive Person and Career I’d recommend this book for a fellow highly sensitive person if and only if the book was edited! The content was helpful but reading it became almost painful due to grammatical errors, a lack of commas, etc. Thrive: The Highly Sensitive Person and Career
