Summary

In a world that encourages and supports engaging with others on a constant basis, is there understanding for those of us that prefer to be alone? When you hear the word introvert how much does this describe you? Before you make that decision listen in as Dom dispels the myth of equating an introvert with shyness and answers whether social anxiety and introversion are equals. When, where and how you derive your energy clues you in to your introversion status. Not sure how that really applies to you? Terri and Dom will explain what the introversion/extroversion spectrum looks like and provide examples from their lives of where they fall on the continuum. Lady, you think you know Terri and Dom, but you might be surprised by how they rate their level of introversion. Stay tuned for information that you can reference for later use and tips on how to navigate being an introvert in an extroverted world. If you are more extroverted, this episode will help you understand your introverted sisters and remind you to not dim your light for the comfort of others. We are dynamic and varied in how we show up in this space. There. Is. Room. For. All. Of. Us.
