Summary

What makes someone an introvert vs. an extrovert and why is it different to what you may have been told? In today's episode, we break down the psychology between these two personality types that seem to categorise and divide society by looking back at when the theory was first created, till now. We also discuss: 

  • The myth of ambiverts
  • What dopamine has to do with it 
  • How much is it genetic? 
  • The Big Five 
  • How introversion/extroversion is influenced by where you were born 
  • How to accept your personality + so much more

Listen now to learn about why you are the person you are!
