Holley Gerth is an expert on introversion and extroversion and what a great conversation we had, I loved it! Every bit of it. I feel like I learned so much about myself, about kids that I counsel, it was fascinating! She said one question that I think would be a game changer in understanding kids. So make sure you listen all the way through. 

At the very end, she had some incredible ideas for helping introverted kids who might feel a bit overwhelmed in going to church. So hang in there to the very end, this episode is packed full of good stuff!

Questions Holley recommends you ask the family members in your home:

What does happiness feel to you?

What would make this (Christmas) holiday feel happy to you?

What would make this vacation/holiday feel happy to you?

What do you think would make it hardest for you?

What is one thing you want to make sure we do?

What is one thing you’re worried that we may have to do?

How can I keep the stimulation of this event at a manageable level for my kid?

Where is your level at right now, what do you need to feel more comfortable?

How can I love you well right now?

What is one small shift/step that we can make as a family today?
