We, Annet and Randy, founded the Living Adventurers out of a deep understanding and compassion for those in need of emotional support. As individuals who are both High Sensation Seeking and Highly Sensitive, we have personally navigated the challenges of growing up in a society that often didn’t understand or appreciate our unique qualities. We know all too well the feelings of being perceived as different or ‘broken’ in some way, and the accompanying sense of shame and exclusion. This personal journey has made us acutely aware of the scarcity of affordable resources and guidance for people like us, and the lack of societal support for developing such resources.

Motivated by our experiences and the desire to make a positive change, we dedicated ourselves to not only developing the skills necessary to thrive amidst life’s challenges but also to gaining the experience needed to apply these skills effectively. Our goal has always been to empower individuals to face life’s adversities with confidence and pride.

In 1996, a groundbreaking study brought to light a temperament trait known as Highly Sensitive People (HSPs), believed to be present in 15 to 30% of the population at the time. This discovery resonated deeply with us, and in 2023, when we met, we realized that by combining our knowledge and experiences, we could create a program that would not only support HSPs but also offer invaluable tools for anyone on a journey of self-improvement. Building the High Responsive Training program required immense hard work and dedication, but it was fueled by our unwavering commitment to helping others and making a meaningful difference in their lives.

Each of us, regardless of gender, experiences life through a lens uniquely shaped by our individual journeys. This diversity, encompassing both male and female perspectives, enriches our mutual understanding and emotional connectivity. To foster understanding, success and empowerment, we invite you to explore the transformative power of growth through adventure. By embracing all of our unique paths and shared experiences, we celebrate the courage, curiosity, and resilience that inspire the High Responsive Training program and The Living Adventurers.
