Maria’s all about keeping things simple so here’s how you can tell if you’re a sensitive soul sister:

When you’re around positive, joyful people, do you instantly feel more joyful and positive yourself?	Yes No
Do people love to pour out their life stories to you, even when they barely know you?	Yes No

Do you feel like you have to recharge yourself more often than most people around you?	Yes No
