    The (messy) truth about your healing journey (that nobody talks about)

    It really has been a while since my last episode, hasn’t it? 🎯 The truth is, my life took a sharp, unexpected turn shortly after that anniversary episode. Not going to sugarcoat it, The last 12 months have been a really difficult period in my life It was a period marked by personal health challenges, and deeply personal losses. I had to take a step back to re-evaluate my priorities and to look after myself first, Though I wasn’t sure about sharing this story of mine initially, I’ve found comforts from watching others share their stories that are quite similar to mine, This episode is my way of sharing my story, Hoping this too would possibly bring comforts to others walking similar path 🎙️ In this episode, I shared about: ✅ There is no fixed timeline to your recovery journey ✅ It is okay to feel not okay ✅ How these heartbreaking events eventually led me to reevaluate my priorities in life. 👉 Expect raw, messy and unfiltered truths of what it’s really like to navigate a heartbreak & health challenges, while the world around you expects you to simply ‘move on’ - as if nothing ever happened. ❓Tell me, how are you going to prioritise yourself today? ⤵️ Connect with Siska: Website: siskawijaya.comEmail: siska@siskawijaya.comInstagram: @ms_siska_wijaya

    Embracing Your Introversion as a Superpower

    Guess what, loves? The Introverts Chat is turning one today!🎂🎂 For today’s anniversary episode, I’d like to share with you about my own reflections to this question: “If I could go back in time, what would I tell my younger self?”  Having fully embraced my introverted personality now, I know that my introversion is a SUPERPOWER on its own. Your own company is enough. Having one close loyal friend is so valuable rather than a few who are nowhere to be found when you need them. Your listening & observation skills will help others to seek comfort in you. Because you make them feel heard & understood, loves. Your definition of success is not going to be the same like everyone else’s. You too can be successful whilst still embracing & staying true to your introverted self. You get to create your own version of success. You get to create your own version of a full, inspired life. How about you, loves? If you could go back in time, what would you tell your younger self? 💌 PS: I have created a PLAYBOOK for you to have a play with as a gift to celebrate my podcast turning 1! Introducing…🥁🥁 💥💥 The Introvert’s Playbook to Living Life Your Way 💥💥 This FREE playbook will help you to: ✅ Navigate the most common scenarios happening in your social life, work life and relationships  ✅ Understand how to respond in a way that honors your introverted needs (and the needs of others)  ✅ Finally embrace your introverted magic confidently & quietly without having to switch to “extroverted mode” when you’re out in the world  Being an introvert is a strength and a superpower – so it’s time to embrace it! 😎 📧 Grab your FREE copy of The “Introvert's Playbook to Living Life Your Way” below.

    Beyond Labels: Embracing Introversion, HSP, and Social Anxiety for Personal Growth

    “Why are you so quiet”? Let me guess,  You get asked this question A LOT. Somehow, our society thinks it is no problem to ask this question, but, If you flick the switch & ask why someone is so loud, Then it is not acceptable. Not fair, isn’t it? Just because you are more into the quieter side, this does not mean that you are rude or shy. Just because you love spending some time in solitude, this does not mean you do not like socializing or you are a sensitive person. While these might ring true for some, these are not what introversion is.  In Today’s episode, we are going to debunk the most common misconceptions about introverts, and, how to not let these define how your life is going to look like. Meet our guest today, Sam Dhu, a psychotherapist and a passionate advocate for being radically kind and compassionate to yourself. As a highly sensitive person Sam believes it is possible to be deeply ambitious and successful, AND soft and sensitive at the same time. Listen here where we talk about: ✅ How to not let these misconceptions define who you are & what you do. ✅ The differences between introversion & other personality traits. ✅ How honoring your needs is a key to creating your own version of a full, inspired life. And lastly but not least, Sam shares with us a tip on how to handle that most annoying question that we often get asked: Why are you so quiet? I hope you love this episode as much as I love recording this for you Happy listening!
