    Episode #24: How to Navigate Romantic Relationships as an HSP

    Are you an introvert who’s also a highly sensitive person? There’s a good chance you are, because 70 percent of HSPs are also introverts. If you’re a highly sensitive introvert, you know how challenging that can be, and most likely, one of your biggest challenges is love and relationships. In today’s episode, we talk about the challenges of being an HSP in a romantic relationship with a non-HSP. We’ll hear from a couple who’s doing just that — Jenn and her partner Andre, founders of Highly Sensitive Refuge, a new community just for HSPs.

    Episode #22: How to Cope with Anxiety as an Introvert

    When many people hear the word introvert, they picture a nail-biter, cowering in his or her bedroom, refusing to interact with the rest of the world. Frankly, this definition of introvert misses the mark by a long shot. But it is true that introverts sometimes feel nervous around certain people and for a variety of other reasons. While introvert and anxiety don’t necessarily go together, when they do, it’s helpful to know why and to have some strategies for coping with the challenges that come your way.   Links Mentioned: Book: Kind of Coping: An Illustrated Look at Life with Anxiety by Marzi WilsonPost: Marzi Wilson’s — IntrovertDear.com will publish a post from Marzi on 2/18Article: I Wrote An Action Plan To Get Over My Social Anxiety by Roxana AlexandruArticle: A Counselor Explains How Introverts Can Banish Social Anxiety by Elizabeth ShulerThe Introvert, Dear Store Looking for awesome introvert gear?

    Episode #20: The Benefits of Being an Introvert

    Modern society celebrates the strengths and virtues of extroversion. It’s no surprise: Extroverts are masters of tooting their own horn. While the outward-focus extroverts bring to life is helpful at many times and in many ways, the one-sided praise only tells half the story. Too many people still need to discover the wonderful benefits of introversion. A quiet, inward focus is just as important and valuable as its counterpart.   On today’s show, we’ll try to level the playing field and shed more light on why introversion is just as valuable and advantageous as extroversion. Tune in to learn a few significant benefits of being an introvert!  The Introvert, Dear Store Looking for awesome introvert gear?

    Episode #19: Yes, Even Introverts Need Friends

    Introverts need good friends and strong relationships, just like extroverts do, but they go about socializing a little differently. Usually they require just a few deep connections - instead of a rolodex of acquaintances - and it doesn’t take as much to fill their social quota.  For introverts to be at their best, they need authentic, close relationships. So on today’s show, we’ll be exploring ways to take care of our friendships as introverts. And joining us to lend her expertise is author SophIa Dembling.   SophIa Dembling is a writer and editor in Dallas, Texas. She is author of The Introvert’s Way: Living a Quiet Life in a Noisy World and Introverts in Love: The Quiet Way to Happily Ever After. SophIa, who started her writing career at The Dallas Morning News, has had articles and essays published in more magazines, newspapers, anthologies and websites than she can list.

    Episode #18: How to Identify Energy Leaks and Get Energized

    Energy - none of us has an unlimited supply, and we introverts need to be particularly mindful of how we spend ours. Mismanagement can quickly result in stress, frustration, overwhelm, lapses in productivity, and the like. That we identify energy leaks in our life and prioritize wellbeing is essential. Today, Michelle Kerr of Wellbeing Weekly is going to explain how we can improve in both of these areas. Michelle is a qualified counsellor, successful entrepreneur, and wellness junkie. She is the creator of the platform Wellbeing Weekly, which provides mindset, wellbeing, and business tools and support for female entrepreneurs to thrive in their business and life.
