20 Famous Highly Sensitive People
We love genius in all its forms. And we are, as a species, often selfish, short-sighted, and without boundaries when it comes to it. We want the products of that genius — quickly, consistently, perfectly. But we too often fail to acknowledge the source — and price — of that genius.
We gravitate toward famous Highly Sensitive People, usually for what they do, with little to no regard for who they are.
With or without fame, fortune, or genius-level intelligence and talent, Highly Sensitive People (HSPs) intrinsically know they are somehow different. The High Sensitivity (HS) that defines their neurological makeup from birth steers them in the direction of supreme qualities like creativity, empathy, and intuition.
Most will fall under the world’s radar. They are, after all, part of a small-but-significant slice of humanity. And our fast-paced, competitive society doesn’t leave much room for understanding, let alone embracing, people who live outside the bell curve.
But there are those we welcome for no other reason than they are famous. Highly Sensitive People are often as unaware of their unique trait as are those who want the benefit of their gifts.
