Episode Details

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 are
Who you’re with
What you’re talking about

A 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?
