The Myth of Introversion and Extroversion

“Are you an introvert or an extrovert?” You’ve heard the question before. And you’ve probably heard that the pandemic affected each group differently. But how accurate are these labels? And do any of us actually fall into only one category?

“Be aware of labels and the expectations we have for ourselves to be a certain way. There will be different things in our lives that change us and we don’t have to fit into this box” - Amy Pearlman

We are complex and multifaceted beings. How we engage and derive energy from the world around us is unique to each individual. How do you feel after hanging out in a group setting? Is your energy rejuvenated or depleted? Our hosts explore these and other questions in this week’s episode to better understand what makes all of us tick.
