Do you enjoy solitude and reflection?
Do people tell you you’re a "good listener"?
Do you find small talk draining?
But enjoy deep meaningful conversations with close friends?
If so, you may be an introvert!

1 out of every 2 people is introverted so chances are, you are one or you're the partner/parent/sibling/friend/coworker of one (so this is relevant to you too!)

WHAT's in this workshop:
1. Intro to the psychological concepts of introversion and extroversion
2. Unpacking the extrovert ideal (and how this impacts introverts)
3. Empowering and practical tips on how to thrive as an introvert
4. Food for thought: little introverts and the education system

WHY attend this workshop?
We live in a society that is biased towards extroverted needs. As a result, introverts often find themselves feeling overtaxed, overwhelmed, or critical of their capabilities. This workshop is all about shedding light on the differences between extrovert and introvert personalities; giving you the info and tips to tailor your self-care and social interactions to suit your personality, and learn how to thrive as an introvert!

Scam or real?

Huco from Remuera

I had a phone call today from number +61 285 203 880 from a lady who said that she represented a Health Organisation. She knew my first name. She continued to ask if my health was good. After that what my age was. I ask her why she needed so much personal information? She replied to help people … View moreI had a phone call today from number +61 285 203 880 from a lady who said that she represented a Health Organisation. She knew my first name. She continued to ask if my health was good. After that what my age was. I ask her why she needed so much personal information? She replied to help people like me. I stated I was not giving her personal information as I could here typing during our conversation. She ended the call.

I share this with you, because it is so easy to fall in a trap where personal information is used for all the wrong reasons.

Be aware, be alert, be wise. Have a great day.
