Podcast #34: We Aren't Broken - Introverts, Connection and Being Ourselves

from Dose of Wonder · host Caitlin McColl 🇨🇦

In this week’s podcast I challenge the assumption that all individuals are inherently social and require constant in-person connection. Myself, who identifies as an introvert, say that virtual interactions can be a fulfilling form of connection for some and I argue against shaming those who prefer solitude or minimal social engagement, asserting that different levels of social interaction are normal and should be accepted. The podcast encourages acceptance of diverse social preferences and rejects the notion that introverted tendencies need to be "fixed”.Loved this episode? You can find extra goodies, gentle tools, and printable doses of wonder over in my Ko-fi shop. You can also buy me a coffee to help support me. Every purchase supports this quiet corner of the internet and helps keep the podcast going. Thank you for being here. 💛Reference:https://medium.com/dose-of-wonder/we-arent-broken-so-don-t-try-to-fix-us-e55246061aaa by Caitlin McColl Get full access to Dose of Wonder at caitlinmccoll.substack.com/subscribe
