#4: How to Find your Community as an Introvert with Karen
LISTEN NOW
Has anyone else felt a shift in how they are finding community or making friends during this crazy season of COVID?
Today, I am chatting with my friend Karen who I actually met during COVID through an online book club. We had a great conversation about the adjustments that we have been forced to make as all of our lives have changed in this last year. Making friends and even nurturing the current friendships that we have has become a lot more difficult than it was during life pre-COVID.
Today Karen shares with us how she has adjusted to those changes, what she is doing to find that connection even as an introvert, how she is leaning into this new season of friendships, and more! It was such a joy talking to Karen, especially because she is a fellow book lover. Stay until the end to hear what our current reads are, what we have on our “to be read” lists, and some great recommendations of books we have already read.
