What makes an introvert an introvert? A number of factors make us who we are, but one of the most important is that we need quiet time to recharge. Robbed of alone time, we grow tired and frustrated and feel overstimulated. We may even start to think we’re broken or subpar people when we don’t have the quiet we need to exercise our greatest strengths.

So how do we ensure we get the alone time we need in a world that expects us to be “out-and-about” and “putting ourselves out there” on a regular basis? Tune into today’s episode for a conversation on this very topic.  The Haven Membership Community
