    Introversion is not a flaw. It is a superpower. And The Introvert Sisters are back to remind you of that.

In “Introversion vs Shyness: The Truth About Being an Introvert,” Lisa and Sharon break down one of the most persistent myths about introversion, especially for introverted Black people navigating spaces that reward volume over depth.

    5 Coping Strategies for Introverted Expats | Ep. 0028

    As remote working has become more of the norm, more and more people have chosen to relocate to a country in which they have always dreamed of living. (Barbados, anyone?) These new expats not only have to adjust to their new home, but also find ways to fit in and not feel like outsiders. This tends to be easy for extroverts, but for introverts, not so much. In their latest Off-Topic episode, Sharon and Lisa share their experiences as lifelong expats, and strategies for how introverts can have an easier, more enjoyable expat journey.
