Episode 19 - Honouring the Need to be Alone
This week I look at something that is often stigmatised: smart people's need to be alone.
Society tends to frown upon this - especially if you're a woman - and you may have internalised this and feel guilty about your desire to spend time on your own.
In this Episode I cover:
- How and why the desire to be alone is often stigmatised;
- why smart people often need more alone time;
- how to figure out whether you’re avoiding social contact because of other issues, or just genuinely need alone time;
- how to effectively communicate your need for alone time and organise it.
It's time to start owning your desire to be alone so you can recharge and do deep work - and to help others do the same!
