This is the first episode of the new season of the podcast formerly called ACT-Inspired Behavior. The show is now titled The Vibrant Introvert!

To start off our season, I want to ask you a question. What IS an introvert? How would you define the term?

Of course there are many definitions out there, books written, blog posts…but what is YOUR definition? The reason I ask this is because you probably have an answer and I bet your brain has already started the work on pinging around your vast network of words, phrases, memories, gut feelings that all tie back to this word.

If I had asked myself this question 10 years ago, I might not have come up with many nice ways of describing introversion, if I were to be honest with you.

In this show I hope to shake up your many associations and assumptions about introversion. In the process, this many even impact the way you see yourself—toward a perspective that is a little more flexible, a little more accepting, and perhaps bolder, in the way you see yourself.

Today, I am highlighting the journey of a fellow introvert, a podcast listener, and someone who I’ve connected with so very much. Her name is Rebekah Perez and today we are going to hear her story of transformation. Her story involves breaking out of her bubble by moving to a big new city…and challenging herself to take on new experiences in pursuit of connecting with values. AND, in the process, you will hear what NEW values come up for her and how she now also describes herself as an introvert, but also so much more than that.
