Most of the advice is pretty standard and then comes the advice that incenses Joanna.    Given the strong extraversion bias in our environment and years of being told to be different, we Introverts may have been persuaded to believe that we needed to change who we are to fit in, which is far from the truth.    Find out what it says in the article that motivated Joanna to devote an episode to discussing our unique strengths as introverts and tune in to discover the powerful benefits of utilising these individual abilities.   KEY POINTS: Defining 'strengths'  Realised and unrealised strengths Other types of strengths    PRODUCTS / RESOURCES:   Email your suggested topics to Joanna@flourishingintroverts.com   Book a Power Hour with Joanna here    What Type of Introvert are you?
