LATEST EPISODE 🔗

For those of a certain age, the title of this episode may have a familiar tune running through your head. But how comfortable are we introverts with admitting what we really, really want?

I was quite the rebel in my younger years, although my good girl tendencies had a habit of keeping that wild child trussed up in her Sunday best. It took me time to recognise how many unwritten rules I had accepted, from believing I had to be entertaining to thinking that challenging authority mea…
I know I have a drawer full of mental receipts, and I suspect I am not alone. They are the bits of evidence we keep to remind ourselves of what we did or did not do, particularly when the experience has acquired a meaning involving regret, shame or embarrassment. But memories are reconstructed and…
Knowing myself has been a lifelong project, and I suspect it will remain one because I'm still discovering things about me that I thought I already knew. But knowing why I do something doesn't automatically mean I am going to do anything differently. Self-awareness is useful information, but it is…
This feels like a fitting way to bring season 29 to a close because, when I look back over 344 episodes, I can see that the permission I was waiting for was not always as obvious as I thought. Years ago, I had the idea to start a podcast, but my limiting beliefs had me dawdle and doubt myself unti…

We introverts do not need fixing, but that does not mean there is no room for growth, development and becoming braver. I have been thinking about what actually needs to change, what I want to change, and what is within my control or influence to change, because those are not necessarily the same t…
What if becoming braver isn't about finally reaching a point where we can say, "Right, that's bravery sorted"? I'm still becoming braver myself, still getting the collywobbles, and still having to choose bravery when fear would make staying put so much easier. My messy journey has made me curious a…
Have you ever caught yourself sighing with frustration, accompanied by an eye-roll, and wondered what on earth that was about? Sometimes there is no single catastrophe to point at. Just years of adapting, being reasonable, giving someone else the benefit of the doubt, pushing through and thinking p…
I have been thinking about certainty, and the curious pressure we seem to feel to know, or at least pretend to know, when life itself gives us very little guarantee. I explore why we introverts can be particularly susceptible to this, given how much we value getting our facts straight and knowing …
