About this listen

Let's dive into the intricate world of our emotional responses. We'll meet my imaginary friend, Jill, an artist who sees beauty in the mundane and faces the world's overwhelming stimuli with a unique perspective. We'll explore how Jill's journey mirrors our own as introverts, dealing with an overactive amygdala and a nervous system that constantly toggles between action and calm. From understanding our 'fight or flight' response to navigating social challenges, this episode unpacks how we, like Jill, experience and process the world around us.
