Episode 111: Jeffrey Clayton - From introvert to extrovert, connecting with people, and being a dad
In Episode 111, Lauren interviews risk-taking introvert and people connector Jeffrey Clayton. When Lauren met Jeffrey, he was introducing himself to everyone in the room and she noticed his kind friendliness. What she didn't know was that Jeffrey had been quite shy growing up, but began striking up conversations with friends and strangers in an effort to become more connected to others.
In this episode, Jeffrey talks about how he started to come out of his shell, growing in confidence in who he is, what he loves about being a dad, and wisdom for people overcoming social anxiety. Jeffrey's big heart will inspire you!
