  1. Your Social Battery Is Real — How much people energy do you have

    Sep 19, 20267 min

    Let’s talk about social energy — or what I like to call people energy.There’s a “fact” floating around that introverts only have 2.3 hours of people energy. We tried to find the research. It doesn’t exist. So… probably fake.The real truth? Social bandwidth is wildly variable.Your energy changes based on:Where you areWho you’re withWhat you’re talking aboutA loud party with strangers? Draining.Time with people who light you up? You might go all day.The goal isn’t to become more extroverted — it’s to optimize your social calendar.What’s your social energy bandwidth?What food fuels you?What people fuel you?What places fuel you?******Hi, I’m Vanessa!You deserve more. More influence, more income, more of what you want. I would be honored to help you. My name is Vanessa Van Edwards, and I’m a recovering awkward person.
