bailedWas reading this book on my phone. It was slow but had a very interesting premise. However Apple Books decided to remove my download multiple times and I kept losing my page so I‘ve currently given up for now!
Just getting out of a car to go into a party…terrifying. #socialanxiety #introvert
“One of the risks of being quiet is that the other people can fill your silence with their own interpretation: You‘re bored. You‘re depressed. You‘re shy. You‘re stuck up. You‘re judgmental. When others can‘t read us, they write their own story—not always one we choose or that‘s true to who we are.”
One of my closest friends has been begging me to read this book for a long while, and now I‘m finally doing it. I‘m only a couple chapters in, but man… this book is for everyone. Honestly I think this is a good book for anyone to read, regardless of their opinions on Christianity, because it offers a fresh and ACCURATE truth, which is that Christians, we struggle so much… this book is so relatable and just… I feel right at home reading this 😭💯
pickI loved reading the fascinating names for groups of animals like a fever of sting rays. This is a great introduction about animals that don't belong to a group by nature. The artwork is bright and fun.

1) Quiet by Susan Cain. Life-changing book for me.
2) Hamilton by Ron Chernow
3) Killers of The Flower Moon by David Grann
Hard to limit to 3! 😄
pickAn excellent guide to the curious, wonderful, confusing, exciting, anxiety inducing world of being an empath. This book helped explain so much, helps you to assess your level of empath tendencies, & gives good basic guidelines and tools on how to deal with that. There is no one size fits all book. This book may be the perfect fit for you, or it may just have a few good useful tools.
so-soI definitely didn‘t need a lesson on what it‘s like to be an introvert (I‘m pretty much a subject-matter expert). But I do wish I could casually pass this along to everyone I know so that someone would understand me.
Yesterday I listened to someone I‘ve worked closely with for 8 years have an hour long conversation with someone who‘s been around for about 8 weeks. That I‘ve never had that kind of convo with them hurts more than I can explain.
Are you an introvert or an extrovert?
