Mile High FI Podcast

Doug chats with JT about practical, actionable strategies for introverts attending conferences like EconoMe, Camp FI, and others.  They cover topics such as social anxiety, taking breaks, participating in structured activities, and effectively interacting with content creators.  They also share tips on the types of questions to ask to keep conversations flowing, how to gracefully exit interactions, maintaining self-care during events, and the importance of not overextending oneself.
