72. Interview with Susan Cain, author of Quiet

When I started this podcast, my #1 dream guest was Susan Cain. So, I'm very happy to bring this episode to you today.

Susan's 2012 book, Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can't Stop Talking was my first introduction to introversion. The book changed my life (and thousands of others worldwide) because it changed how I saw myself.

It was through learning about introversion that I learned about high sensitivity; I wouldn't be typing this to you today without her book as the inception.

More about Susan Cain:

Susan is the co-founder of Quiet Revolution, a site that features advice and stories for introverts and extroverts alike on how to appreciate our quiet sides. She is the author of the bestsellers Quiet Power: The Secret Strengths of Introverts, and Quiet: The Power of Introverts in A World That Can't Stop Talking, which has been translated into 40 languages and been on the New York Times bestseller list for over four years. Her record-smashing TED talk has been viewed over 15 million times. She is an honors graduate of Princeton and Harvard Law School.

Some of the topics covered in this episode include:

What it was like to be a Wall Street lawyer and an introvert
If she's an HSP
How Susan dealt with the huge popularity of her book and TED talk
The difference between HSPs and introverts
Her Quiet Leadership Institute
The introvert backlash
....and more.

Susan's books:

Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can't Stop Talking
Quiet Power: The Secret Strengths of Introverts (A guide for teens and kids)

You can also find her on Twitter.
