Creating an Introvert Friendly Educational Environment

This week’s episode is about understanding introversion and breaking down barriers that often hold introverts back. We previously interviewed Faris Khaiilfeh, a Quiet Confidence Coach, about succeeding in the professional world as an introvert. The student experience as an introvert can also be challenging, especially in large educational institutions with tens of thousands of students. I remember myself feeling overwhelmed heading to university from a small town and I’m sure there are other students out there finding it hard to navigate the hectic nature of modern society. This week’s guest is Julia Burdajewicz, also known as the Germann Introvert, a health psychology student and digital content creator, who is passionate about empowering fellow introverts and deconstructing popular stereotypes about introverts. She has been interviewed by Vice Magazine and connected with over 10,000 followers on her blog and other social media, on relevant topics related to introversion, such as creative strengths, mental health, mindfulness, and life experiences.
