The point of this mini-series is, quite simply to help you discover more about... you.

Self-knowledge is arguably the most critical catalyst in personal development : how you manage your energy, how you interact with others, where your strengths lie... Not to mention a key player in business success.

When you know yourself, you can make decisions more effectively, have greater clarity on where you want to go, what you want to be doing, and how you do it best: when you're at your most creative.

Ok, so if you're not sold just yet, what if I told you I could make this self knowledge super simple: breaking every aspect of the journey down into easy to digest podcast episodes?

Well, hopefully that's enough to convince you: it's happening anyway.

I'm pushing pause on interviews for a wee bit while I run this Self Knowledge for Creative Introverts mini-series and over the next 10 weeks I'll be guiding you through the ultimate self-knowledge series.

We'll tackle:

  • Your past - what has made you, you
  • Your learning style - how you take in and absorb information
  • The way you experience the world & process information (N/S, HSS, HSP)
  • Your love language - how do you receive and give love
  • What inspires you - what fuels your creative fire
  • The way you make decisions
  • The environment you thrive in
  • The way you get stuff done
  • Your 'shadow' self
  • Your dreams - what you (really) want

A short one today to mark the grand re-opening of the League of Creative Introverts, my online community for like-minded creatives who are ready to get their work out into the world... but on their terms - no extroverting required!

I tackle the common questions I get about the League of Creative Introverts including...

Isn’t it a bit of a paradox? A community of introverts? Isn’t that like starting a beach for vampires?

The League will be open for one week, so you have until HALLOWEEN - er, October 31st 2017 at midnight GMT - to get yourself a spot.

More info and links to join can be found here >>

If you’ve been listening to this podcast a while, you might have heard a bit about my story - how I left my day job as a professional pixel pusher - I mean, web designer - to pursue my childhood dreams of becoming an illustrator and above all - be able to work from HOME.

At the time, I thought it was just the youngest child, red headed rebel in me that provoked my decision to leave my stable 9-5 job in exchange for the free range, freelance life.

But for this episode in particular I want to highlight the challenges we face when attempting to build a business or pursue a new career or go rogue like I did and work for youself.

This entrepreneurial trend is only growing, and whilst we’re encouraged as introverts to pursue these lofty dreams, I want to be clear that there are some very real challenges that can and will crop up - at least they have in my experience - and more importantly - give you some tools and strategies to actually deal with them.

Hopefully it will be of more use than another article on Forbes about introverts are naturals at networking - probably written by an extrovert.

Networking.

A word almost as cringe-inducing as saying Volde-I mean, he who must not be named.

Regardless of whether you’re an introvert OR an extrovert - I actually don’t know if anyone admits to enjoying networking.

It’s kind of like exercise. We know it’s good for us but it doesn’t come without some pain - especially at first.

May be over time some of us develop a taste for it - but for the majority of us - we’d rather be at home networking with our cat than shaking hands and pasting on forced smiles with people who couldn’t care less what you do - but they ask anyway because it’s a way to talk about what THEY do.

Can you tell I’m not a big fan of networking?

 

Just over a year ago I found myself in a new city, away from any contacts or friends i had back in London who I could depend on throwing me a bit of work or helping me out in a time or crisis.

It dawned on me that I was going to have to make a bit more effort than I had been in networking - which prior to this had consisted of going to the occasion meetup with some illustrators and necking a couple of pints.

Looking back, I realise it wasn’t super effective networking anyway.

So first things first: I had to find some opportunities to meet new people.

 

What I’d like to do in this podcast episode is firstly help you if you know you need to start networking and secondly - to help you do it effectively. Oh and finally to be realistic. If you’re an introvert, like myself, I know that someone telling you to go and do all these mad manipulative tactics like mirroring or working the crowd - it just isn’t going to resonate.

If you’re anything like me, the likelihood of even going to the networking event you signed up for is about a 3/10 chance.

So - hopefully this is actually useful if you’re in a position like I was, knowing you need to network - but doing anything you can to avoid it and reason your way out of it.
