Extroverts thrive on having lots of people in their social network, and there’s research that points to the benefits of having a large, expansive network, such as being happier, healthier and even getting better sleep.   However, there are also some surprising downsides to being an extrovert too, and in this episode of the Friend Forward Podcast, our resident friendship expert Danielle Bayard Jackson explores both the upsides of having this kind of outgoing spirit and the three surprising downsides that come with operating in this way too.    Whether you’re the extrovert of your friendship group, or whether you’ve always been curious about the sides of your extroverted friend that you don’t know, tune in this episode to hear Danielle’s expert insights on the matter.   And as always, stay tuned for this week’s homework.   If you’re enjoying the Friend Forward Podcast, click the ‘Follow’ button now to not miss an episode.   To continue the conversation, dive even deeper and access extra resources, come and join the Friend Forward private group chat, at https://www.patreon.com/friendforward   And remember, you can send us your comments and questions, and join the Friend Forward Group Chat at www.betterfemalefriendships.com   To explore more of Danielle’s friendship expertise, connect with her at www.instagram.com/daniellebayardjackson   Stay updated with the latest episodes and podcast updates at https://www.instagram.com/friendforward   To explore coaching with Danielle visit www.betterfemalefriendships.com/coaching Book Danielle to speak at your upcoming conference or event, by emailing info@tellpublicrelations.com
