The Driven Introvert is a faith-inspired podcast for purposeful introverts who are ready to step out with courage and pursue their big ideas. We’re here to remind you that the life work you’ve dreamed about is possible, and your unique personality is not a limitation to achieving it. This bi-weekly show is hosted by Remi Roy, Founder of Shepact.com. The show features introverts (and others) with unique perspectives on what it means to follow dreams, passionately build out ideas, and live a life that matters. Expect inspiring conversations, resources, reflections, and stories on faith, life, and work. We are essentially a supportive faith-driven platform dedicated to empowering introvert women (and the occasional men!) to pursue their God-given purpose.
