The Crush Chronicles

Sam | Experiencing Crushes as A Highly Sensitive Person
EPISODE 4 • SEASON 2 00:43:30

Welcome Back, Crushers!


Previously on The Crush Chronicles Podcast

We were thrilled to share Jitsie’s conversation with Orange County, CA Small Business Lover, Jasmin Martinez, owner of The Local Gem Collective. Her marketplace houses over 50 women-owned small businesses (think Rose Apothecary, David’s shop in Schitt’s Creek, but colorful!).

On Today’s Episode


We are excited to share a discussion with a woman who shares about her experiences being a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP). She authors her Substack, Sensitive Soul Embodied, and has known Jitsie for many years. Please give Sam’s episode a warm welcome.

What’s to Come


We have great episodes lined up, inspired by chapters from the story of Conner. Episodes will still be released bi-weekly (every two weeks), and the next episode features another unique guest. That episode’s discussion will be inspired by themes that arise in “The Ride,” which is the second chapter in the book of Conner.


We still need guests for this season!

  1. You must have access to a reliable web browser (Google Chrome or Microsoft Edge) or download the Riverside app on any device. (Interviews are recorded using Riverside.FM.)

  2. You must be willing to read a short excerpt from The Crush Chronicles(provided by Jitsie).

  3. You must fill out the application.
