The Power of Introverts
With Jeri Bingham
Date: October 2, 9, 16, 23, 30, November 6
Time: 7:00 p.m. to 8:30 p.m.
“Introverts are hermits. Introverts don’t like people. Introverts can’t hold a conversation.” These are some of the myths associated with introversion, the highly misunderstood personality type. In a society where the most extroverted are celebrated and rewarded, how do introverts fit in? For those who acknowledge and embrace their introversion, they know how to create a space for themselves. For those who are masquerading as extroverts, they are exhausted because they haven’t mastered how to be their true, authentic selves. For others, they don’t even realize they are introverts because of the stigma attached to the word. This course will unpack and explore the power of introverts, the beautiful balance of relationships with extroverts, and how to support and honor both personality types.
