About this episode
*** Learn more about the Screw Being Shy 45 Day Step by Step Affordable Program to Stop Shyness, Eliminate Social Anxiety, and Rewire your Mind: https://bit.ly/3jM7ZBc ***

Listen to learn more about the differences between being an introvert, being shy, and having social anxiety. Tune in to understand 3 ways to tell the difference and how to begin to solve your cognitive, social, and emotional-related problems.

Some of what we talk about:
- Being an introvert doesn’t mean every time you want to speak with someone, your body’s fight, and flight response gets triggered and you start sweating, panting, tapping your legs, and then overthink and close your mouth.
- Being an introvert doesn’t mean you are shy in front of 100% of the people you meet every single time no matter what the situation is.
- Being an introvert doesn’t mean you have no confidence in yourself.
- Being an introvert doesn’t mean you socially isolate yourself and have no deep connections or you either have friends you keep around you to speak shallow talk with to give yourself the illusion that you have friends and everything is fine.
