In a world that often equates volume with value, what does it mean to honor the quiet power of introversion, especially as a Black woman? In this illuminating episode of Space To Exhale: The Podcast, Lisa sits down with Jeri Bingham, Founder of Black Introvert Week, Host of the HUSH LOUDLY Podcast (WGN Radio), and creator of Hush Loudly: Introverts Redefined, to celebrate the brilliance, boldness, and beauty of those who speak softly but live powerfully.
Together, the two introverts unpack the intersections of race, identity, and personality, and explore how introverts are not only navigating but also transforming the workplace, community spaces, and the culture at large.
🎧 Tune in to learn:
✅ Why redefining introversion is a radical and liberating act for Black women and femmes
✅ How to thrive as a quiet leader in loud, extrovert-centered spaces
✅ The truth about rest, solitude, and reclaiming your energy as a superpower
✅ What inspired the creation of Black Introvert Week, and why it’s so necessary
✅ How to build a life and career that honors your authentic self
Whether you’re an introvert, or you love someone who is, this episode is a love letter to all the quiet ones—and a bold reminder that softness is strength.
