About this listen

For years, I thought I was an extrovert. I love chatting with people, I’m never shy in social settings, and I’m often the one starting conversations. But here’s the twist — after a day full of social interaction, I feel completely drained.

In this episode, I share how I discovered I’m actually an ambivert and how working in a people-facing job left me facing something very real: introvert burnout. I talk about my weekly “me-day,” why solitude isn’t selfish, and how embracing this need for alone time has reshaped my lifestyle, career thinking, and self-worth.

If you’ve ever felt exhausted after too much socializing — even if you love people — this one’s for you.
