I mentioned in a previous episode that I didn’t only want to talk about introversion. I had other subjects I wanted to talk about, but I realized I couldn’t talk about certain subjects without first addressing therapy. There’s a lot of stigma around therapy, especially in certain cultures, so I was a little hesitant about doing an episode on this. However, I believe that therapy can be very beneficial to some people and I don’t think there’s anything wrong with it, so why should I hide it or be ashamed of it when I, myself, see nothing wrong with it? So, here’s my little therapy story.

Fairly recently, my sister-in-law and I took the 16 Personalities quiz, which is basically the free version of the Myers Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) assessment. (Maybe some day I’ll take the actual one.) Not surprisingly, we ended up with both being an INTJ, except she’s an INTJ-T and I’m an INTJ-A. So, in this episode we talk about how to spot an INTJ. 

Here’s the link to the quiz: https://www.16personalities.com/

I got a solo one for you guys. I know I’ve been having guests on a lot lately, so I needed to put in a solo one in there. In this episode, I talk about my podcast voice and basically think out loud about what I want my voice to be and what the future of this podcast would look like. It’s really a rambling episode, so if you like those types of episodes, then this is the one for you. Enjoy!

In this episode, I am joined by my good friend Shannon Ebler. She is another one of my closest introvert friends and we talk about her adventures outside the country and her experience living on the east coast. Shannon being a social and anxious introvert, I was curious about her adventures and how she prepares for traveling. I haven’t traveled much, so I love hearing her stories. Let me know your traveling stories. Are there places you have on your bucket list? Do you have any plans in the future?

In this episode, I am joined by my cousin-in-law, Patrick DeGuzman. We both very much enjoy playing video games, but our game choices may differ depending on our personalities. I sent Patrick an article that states that introverts and extroverts play the same amount of video games, but what differs is the choice of video game. We discuss whether we agree with that statement or not. At the end, Patrick delights us with an odd drunk story, so stick around to hear all about it.

In this episode, I am joined by my sister-in-law, Leah Guillama. She’s a fellow introvert like myself and that’s actually what bonded us together. Leah decided to leave all things safe, comfortable, and familiar for a new life all the way across the country to Virginia. We talk about her reasons for leaving, the pros and cons of living in a completely new environment, and how it’s been so far. I feel like a lot of introverts will resonate with the experiences that Leah goes through and the different tangents we go off on. Have you moved across the country or even farther? How was that experience? Please let me know on social media. I’d love to hear your stories.

In this episode, I talk about two friend finder apps that I tested out: Hey Vina! and Bumble BFF. I was inspired by the Introvert Dating episode I did with my friend Mia. She was talking about the dating apps she uses, and it was so interesting. I’m married, so I’m not looking to date. Instead, I googled if there was something similar for searching for new friends. As an adult, it gets a bit harder to find new friends, especially in the current quarantine world we live in. I talk through the different apps, my experience, and some of the pros and cons I found. Please let me know if you tried the apps and what your experiences are. Feel free to reach out to me on social media or email me. If you like the episode, please share it with others and follow me on social media to stay up to date on new episodes.

In this episode, I talk about the very much dreaded activity: Small Talk. No one likes and most people don’t know how to do it or at least do it very well. I talk about how even though we all hate small talk, it has its benefits, especially in the workplace and building relationships. I share some of the tips I have. By no means am I a professional small talker, so if you have any pointers, please let me know what you do. I’d love to get some new pointers.
