Description

Are you feeling digitally overwhelmed or maxed out during this time? Big
thanks to Brooke, who submitted this week’s Listener Q&A on something I
mentioned in a previous Pivot podcast: digital introversion.

Contrary to the dictionary definition of introverts as “shy or reticent”
(lame!) I resonate more with the etymology of the word from the mid-17th
century: in latin intro- (to the inside) and vertere (to turn) combine to
be defined as: to turn one’s thoughts inwards (in spiritual contemplation).
How epic is that?!

Susan Cain, author of the mega-bestseller Quiet: The Power of Introverts in
a World That Can’t Stop Talking and accompanying 2012 TED Talk with nearly
26 million views, has been a central leader in redefining the term
introversion to correspond more with how one gets energy and recharges. She
founded a movement called Quiet Revolution, and I encourage you to take
her online assessment.

In this episode, I share 7 strategies that I’m still practicing as it
relates to navigating this new, even more digital world as I answer
Brooke’s question: How can I connect with heartfelt community in this
digital world?
