No Small Talk- Conversation Starters for Introverts

29. 10 Undeniable Signs You're an Introvert, Not Shy


Listen Later

Have you ever been perceived as shy, withdrawn, or quiet? Or maybe you've been called a recluse? 

If you're an introvert, you've likely been called all of these and more, and are just generally misunderstood and sometimes overshadowed by our more extroverted friends which can sometimes leave us feeling less than, not good enough, and not seen or heard.  In today's episode, we discuss the tell-tale signs that you're a fellow introvert and the common misconceptions people have about us. 

We also talk about: 

  • When we discovered we were introverts 
  • The impact our careers have had on creating our more introverted personalities 
  • Famous leaders and personalities who are introverts 
  • The importance of embracing your unique skills, talents and personality traits to lead and show up more confidently as an introvert in your personal and professional life
