Summary
For this episode my guest is the mega selling author Susan Cain who wrote Quiet and started the Quiet Revolution which embraces the more introverted people among us. Her new book is Bittersweet and it's about people who tend towards sadness, such as feeling a tinge of sadness, or anxiety around really happy moments out of fear that they will pass - which I experience all of the time. I ask her about all of this in relation to anxiety and we have a really interesting conversation. Bittersweet is out now and follow me on @OwningItPodcast for more.
