The Sensitive One

A Memoir

About this book

For readers of The Glass Castle, Educated, and Wild comes the courageous story of a woman enduring hardship and turning her sensitivity into a superpower to find healing, meaning, and light.

Labeled “too sensitive” as a child in a household plagued by alcoholism and emotional neglect, Susan Frances Morris grew up craving love, stability, and safety. As an adult, just when she begins to build a new life as a nurse, wife, and mother, her world is shaken again—this time by a breast cancer diagnosis that forces her to confront both her mortality and the buried wounds of her past.

With raw honesty and vivid storytelling, Morris explores the long shadow of childhood trauma, the hidden battles of depression and postpartum struggles, and the transformative power of facing fear head-on. Her story is one of heartbreak and hope—an inspiring journey that redefines what it means to be “sensitive” as a strength rather than a flaw.

The Sensitive One is a courageous memoir of survival, resilience, and reclaiming identity after a childhood overshadowed by trauma and silence.
