Beth Buelow, The Introvert Entrepreneur
Endings and Beginnings: It's been a great 8 ½ year run, and I've made the difficult decision to come to completion with the show. Rather than have a final interview with someone – I mean, who wants to be your last guest?! – I'm going to share with you some of the story of how I arrived at this point and what comes next. My hope is that you join with me on that “what's next” part of the journey, and in hearing my story, it supports you and provides some food for thought about any pivots you have going on in your life.

Ep135: This post has been at least a year in the making. In true introvert fashion, I noticed a pattern of thought some time ago and took a while to process it internally, before it became so urgent that it had to be expressed externally. The catalyst for finally sharing it happened last week when I was being interviewed for a colleague's podcast. She had asked me about challenges I'd overcome and what I'd learned from them. Once again, I was faced with this reality: I wasn't sure I had any challenges worth sharing. When I told her this, she was intrigued and very interested in talking about it. And I realized that perhaps I wasn't alone in my rather bizarre shame in not having walked through fire and come out alive with a really good story. That's the backstory for today's post, which is titled, Confessions of an Untraumatized 40-Something Happily Married Woman You'll find the full post at theintrovertentrepreneur.com/2016/11/04/confessions-untraumatized-40-something-happily-married-woman
