Description
Have you ever felt like you’re “too much?” Too intense? Too consumed by whatever life has in store, that you cannot ever feel fulfilled? Aurora Remember Holtzman has news: you are not too much. Perhaps you simply haven’t embraced your naturally excitable self? In “Embracing Intensity,” Aurora will take everything you think you know about what it means to be intense and excitable, and show you how intensity is not a weakness but a hidden power. Each week, Aurora will interview a strong, creative, and sensitive woman who embodies what it means to embrace intensity in order to show you how to embrace your life in its fullest. Listen to unlock ways to unleash your inner fire— without getting burned!

Such Great Information!
This show fills a niche that is extremely under represented in the podcasting world. I'm so happy this show is filling the void. It's got great information and great guests! Thanks Aurora for putting yourself out there!

So relatable!
I love this podcast! Aurora shares wisdom and interviews with authenticity and passion. I found myself relating to so many of the topics of discussion, and I feel so inspired after listening to the episodes. As a recovering "approval addict" myself, the interview with Amy Pearson was particularly awesome.
THANK YOU - Sharing the truth!!
I love this show celebrating women's truth, authenticity and fire! I wish I had this information years ago when my intensity seemed to scare people. Brilliant and needed info! Thanks Aurora!
