No Small Talk- Conversation Starters for Introverts

56. What I Had to Let Go of to Avoid Overwhelm and Burnout as a High Achieving Introvert | TEDx Talk by Katie Rasoul


Listen Later

Are you a super ambitious introvert, who wants to be the best at everything you do? Well, so is Ebony, and when she heard Katie Rasoul's TEDx Talk, she thought "That sounds like me!" So we wanted to share with you this TEDx Talk, because we thought that there is probably some listeners that can relate to this as well.

Katie Rasoul is a fellow introvert and author of the book Hidden Brilliance. Katie is a high-achieving introvert. Someone who feels the intense tug between the drive to achieve more and the need for solitude, between going out to conquer the world fighting with the desire to simply be alone.

Ebony had a similar journey to Katie's and learned that her value is not based on accolades or accomplishments That her value also comes from experiences and our journey. And that journey includes the wins and the losses. There is value from failing and lessons that can be learned and shared from our mistakes in life.

So, if you consider yourself a high achieving introvert, remember to not base your value on what you can and cannot achieve. But instead create your own definition of success, and enjoy your journey along the way.
