Extroverts like Becky frequently process out loud, while introverts like Diana process within their own minds.  Becky talks about the importance of working out her thoughts verbally while Diana discloses that she\u2019s been working on building her ability to process out loud over many years. They also discuss the difference between introverts and extroverts in terms of where they draw their energy. Generally speaking, extroverts are energized by people and flourish in groups. Introverts (again, generally speaking) prefer solitude and quiet. Becky discusses one of her most frequently quoted phrases: \u201cThis is going to work out better than I can imagine.\u201d She uses it because it reminds us to get out of our own way so we are open to possibilities out there that we can\u2019t see or imagine. Diana relates this to being in the woods with headphones on. If we are going through the woods with headphones on, then we miss the flowers blooming and the critters running around. When we remain open and remove our headphones, we can see opportunities when they occur.  Diana and Becky also discuss what it\u2019s like to fully embrace our uniqueness, and how it feels to reject it. They point out that it\u2019s easier to be ourselves when we are in tune with others who are being themselves. They also discuss the strange fact that many of the things people have told us are wrong with us are, indeed, the very things that make us uniquely brilliant. Their conversation also covers why having allies at work, or anywhere we feel vulnerable, makes it easier to step into our unique brilliance and be our full selves.  \u00a92022 Cronecast Podcast Network Music \u00a92015 Max Brodie ","author_name":"Uniquely Brilliant Podcast","author_url":"https:\/\/uniquelybrilliant.libsyn.com\/","html":"
