Jenny Valentish: The Introvert's Guide to Leaving the House

Welcome to another episode of Totally Lit, where we explore the world of reading, writing, and literature. In this episode, host Ky Garvey welcomes Jenny Valentish, journalist and memoir writer. Jenny discusses her latest book, 'The Introvert's Guide to Leaving the House', which offers practical advice for introverts, the socially awkward, and sociophobes alike. 

Solid advice for introverts, awkwards, sociophobes and stand-offishes

At last: a practical and relatable book for introverts, stand-offishs, sociophobes and awkwards. The Introvert’s Guide to Leaving the House is stuffed full of game plans for every excruciating social scenario.

Journalist and reformed sociophobe Jenny Valentish will help you extend your social battery life, tackle fear of judgement, form more meaningful connections, create an online presence that feels comfortable, express more of your body’s own bonding chemicals, hit a party like a SWAT team, nail phone conversations, handle conflict, become a more confident manager and team player, hack public speaking, turn small talk into profound connections, reframe limiting self-beliefs, and navigate the overlap between social anxiety and neurodiversity.

Do we Wary Marys need curing? Of course not. But sometimes we can do with a few aces up our sleeves to navigate social interactions.

Join us as we discuss the challenges introverts face in today's world, especially in the literary industry, where putting oneself out there is often expected. Jenny's candid insights offer hope and practical tips for anyone looking to better navigate social situations while staying true to themselves.
