Dear fellow Intoverts: My girlfriend and I are both intoverts, and we are both so lucky we found each other. Small talk? Nope. We thrive on the deep conversations that help us grow. We thrive on peace and quiet. We are alone, but together. Mahalo so much for this personal and insightful video. We are smiling and nodding with you Kind Introvert:-) Keoki and Kate

You're such a cool person! I'm a introvert as well with no friends, and let me tell you. It's the best feeling in the world! Focusing on yourself, no drama, save all the money for yourself, and you can make all the choices you want without anyone's approval! I'm glad you're helping other introverts out there! Introverts are the best!

Being alone means everything to me. It’s my freedom…. My air to breath… 🙏🏻✨

When I am alone, I feel a greater connection to myself. I think clear, see my path brighter, and feel a great calmness in my heart. It is a wonderful, peaceful feeling. Even my art is better when I am alone, without distractions. I can't stand negativity. I am very sensitive to it. I see it as a poison. I rather just walk away, and never talk to them again. How you explained an introvert in this video, is spot on.

soooo relatable! I'd rather be alone than be with people who make me.feel alone.

This was so beautifully articulated....I'm an introvert and most of my friends ..including my husband is an extrovert and I just love the way they light up the room with their conversations which I enjoy and they have told me in turn that they appreciate my insights and creativity as an introvert ...we truly do need both ...thanks for your video😊

I am a hardcore introvert. I wish my upbringing was one of acceptance and empowerment. Instead I felt forced being in an extroverted world. Introverts are a gift to this world. We have a strong intuition and know when to shine our light. I now know why I was drawn to your channel. Your energy is beautiful and feel like I have a kindred spirit that walks this journey with me even though we are miles apart. You inspire me and are a great comfort to my frazzled nervous system that lives in an extroverted environment daily. Thank you for shining your light and unique gifts with the world. Blessings

You're not the quiet one in this room... and 250K of us are happy about that. =)

Many people think I'm an extrovert but I am in fact an introvert. I just feel like we live in a world that favors extroverts so whenever I am at work and such, I present myself as such. I just want to be given the same opportunities as other people and this is what I have to do

I am an extrovert. I respect the introverts, many of my friends are like that, also my family and my bf. I speak a lot sometimes,so it's difficult when they remain silent. I have learnt to accept this difference and not judge it like others. Introverts are very strong people and they keep your secret forever. They have a passion for many things and great advice to give you. Personally I love to be with a different type of personality next to me than a similar one. It's more interesting!

Great video Sophie! Introversion is often misconstrued as being shy or lacking confidence and I think that’s more the case in western nations where society is conditioned to favour extroverted behaviour. Susan cain’s book, Quiet, is a great read on this subject!

Introvert's really want a genuine talks always,love the conversations that we can learn 💚💚💚

I’m an introvert and only really understood it a few years ago. I wish I could have known myself better as It could have saved me decades of pain wondering why I’m not like the others. Now I embrace it and see it as a power. It’s ok not to want to be around others all the time and not have to make a huge mark on the world. Liberating

“A strong person can always be found alone; a weak person can always be found in a crowd.”

I am an introvert most of the time, but I can be an extrovert when I want to. Thank you for explaining the benefits of being introverted. I had a professor who made me feel bad because I wasn’t the most chatty person in my group for projects. I tried to explain that I didn’t know my group members very well and I preferred to listen to others and process. It wasn’t until I went to go on to graduate school that I had another professor who understood this completely and made me feel normal. She was in the counseling field, so I think she understood different types of people better. We all have something different to bring to a group, but that is what makes it interesting.

When I say I’m an introvert people would respond to me like “i’m an intorvert too. I like staying home and being quiet” but then they don’t stop talking about so many senseless things. We, introverts, are most of the time mistaken as someone who “just likes being alone or shy or someone who prefers to stay home”. I’m an introvert and I love going on adventures. Either alone or with the someone or two who are closest to me. I can’t stand small talks, gossips and negativity. They drain my energy. I admit that I sometimes feel alone and lonely but still, being alone is the best way for me to recharge and heal. I love being an introvert.

Hey Sofia, This is pretty relatable. I'm an introvert but as you mentioned I never felt alone too and people are sceptical about the things that we revolve around, nevertheless being an introvert never makes me regret about anything. And, I'm just in love with all your videos. Do upload more videos than usual if possible, I'll be waiting to know more. Thank you so much. Loads of love.❤

So beautifully expressed and spot on.

This video is like a warm blanket on a cold day: cozy and comforting :')

You explain what I feel so well. I don’t feel so alone now. Thank you for this video and a glimpse of you’re thoughts ❤️

Story of my life! Explained perfectly. Sometimes this introverted side of me gets called stuck up but this is exactly how I feel sometimes and it's not wrong. We need to recharge ourselves sometimes and some don't understand that. 😔

Absolutely agree with what you were saying. As an introvert I appreciate this video so much. Thank you!

I'm an introvert person and this is exactly the way I feel. Thanks Sophie, I love you and I love your videos so much!!❤️

"You've created boundaries for yourself, and the world should honor it." I have started setting boundaries for myself and those around me, and it has truly made a difference to my mental health and well-being. Love this video.

I'm an introvert and I'm loving it. Thanks for this uplifting video. ❤️🤗

I love how calming and deep your videos are, you have such a gentle yet powerful voice 💛

This is very relatable.well articulated

Wow!! I needed to hear that today. Thank you for such a beautiful message. It’s exactly how I feel and I will longer feel the need to change who I am to appease others! I will remain my powerful, beautiful authentic self no matter how the world sees me. 🌸

This is so true. It feels good to hear reassurance in my preferences. I've often wondered if something was wrong with me since I prefer alone time to friendships.

So eloquently put. It warmed my introverted spirit, knowing there are others who are sitting quietly in the background listening.

So beautifully articulated... you've voiced the thoughts of this introvert so well. Even in ways I didn't realise I needed it to be expressed. Thank you...

Thank you for such a wonderful tribute to all introverts. I relate to every word

beautiful. you tell it so truthfully and precise. thank you for helping extroverted ppl understand what it's like on the other side of the spectrum 💕

Messages like this are very powerful, thank you , for these peaceful words ,much appreciation.

Thank You for this.😢

Oh once again you’re saying so much that I feel. I’m creating my own world, as I feel more than ever, ironically since the pandemic, that I just want to be alone. I love KZfaq so much because you can have a community, like this one, where you can have contact with people on the same wavelength - so peaceful and comforting.

So enjoying your channel! I’m also an introvert and recently learned I’m a Highly Sensitive Person, as well. I’m reframing my past and restructuring my present in a way that works with this new knowledge and it’s absolutely life-changing. Looking forward to hearing more of your quiet, calm, and authentic videos.

Added to my "Favorites" playlist.

This was a beautiful video! Thank you. 🌺 learning to embrace my introverted qualities and needs in a world full of extroverted friends and family members has been one of the best things I’ve ever done for myself. Your videos always bring me peace! 🤍

Through you I'm fully embracing my introverted self. 😉 Love every single words you uttered and your voice is so relaxing. 😊

Thank you for the beautiful message. I’m also an introvert, always have been and always will be. I just found your channel and subscribed right away!

Thank you for putting gentle positive and beautiful words on what I have always been feeling within myself and scared about. ❤

The truth about being introverted is very different from being alone. It's about prioritizing time to yourself and towards things that interest you a over being with others all the time :) loved this video!

Beautiful! 💕 Proud to be a introvert!!!

This is so therapeutic because it's like describing myself to the tee....thank you for this beautiful video 😊

I love you, thank you for sharing your light ✨

This was beautiful and relatable on many levels, Thank you for sharing!

I loved this really. As an introvert myself, I feel understood and, in a way, heard🥺❤

I LOVE YOU ❤️ FINALLY SOMEONE THAT UNDERSTANDS ME!!

Beautiful. This is where Socrates' expression, "know thyself" feels so important. I cherish my introversion and feel more deeply at peace understanding my inherent needs. I think it's something to celebrate, because so often it lends itself to soulful and artistic expression, not to mention deeper realms of relationship.

Hi Sophie. You describe us introverts so well. I find I need to spend time alone after dealing with people. Being out in nature really helps me unwind and recharge. Our little community sure has grown. Congrats on 250K subscribers!

This was such a great video and explanation! Spoke to my heart

"You've created boundaries for yourself, and the world should honor it." I really benefited from this simple but impactful reminder. In world where boundaries are constantly being pushed, personally and professionally, I needed the reminder that boundaries should be honored. I sincerely appreciate your content, and the ending to this video most of all.

Thank you for saying that so loud 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺 every word you mentioned reflects me as if you know exactly who l am ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ thank you

You have just described me. Thank you for sharing. This resonates with me so much. X

I have never felt so seen in a video before, related to so much of this. Thank you for creating this 💜💜

I love how you spoke to us introverts at the end. Made me smile and proud to be who I am 😍☺️😀

Beautiful. When you post a video, I know I'm in for some kind of therapy session. Thank you for your art.

My goodness...you have a soothing voice .

Quietness is a underrated virtue.

Beautiful video! I truly can relate to everything to you talked about. After feeling so different most of my life, only after reaching my 40s I have come to accept and appreciate my introverted personality. ❤️🥰❤️

Lovely video, Sophie! Yes, the coach in me wants to say not to get stuck on a label. Yet, you've given your introversion beautiful expression. And you've used your insights about who you are to build a creative and meaningful life. You clearly bring your best self to the world. And what could be better than that?

Thank you so much for this video. I've enjoyed many of your videos, but this one struck a deep sense of togetherness that moved my soul. Thank you for being honest and thank you for being yourself. All the best /Nils (SWEDEN)

Aloha my fellow introvert. I felt as though you were speaking directly to me and through me. Excellent work Sophie! Mahalo nui loa for all the effort you put into your videos. I appreciate you very much. ✌🏼💚

Thank you for this video.

As always, thank you for this, Sophie. I am an introvert myself and for years, people around me, sadly even ones in my family, have made me believe that there was something wrong with me for preferring AND craving solitude. But now, with the help of videos like this, I am slowly moving away from the shame people tell me I should feel and into appreciation and celebration of my uniqueness as an individual.

Thank you, Sophie for sharing this with us🌿 So true is everything you have mentioned and the video is so inspiring🌿

Sophie, Terrific segment ... beautiful images and meaningful content. As a socially awkward, poorly understood introvert, your message resonates with me. And introverts know that there are many variants of the introverted archetype. Thank you very much.

This made me want to cry. My 4 year old is very introverted, and this is what I try to articulate to people... but cant' sometimes. Thanks for helping me find the words to support my son.

Hi Sofia, thanks for finding a way to express yourself through this video. I am an introvert myself and your words really touched me. It made me reflect and think of those things I did just to please others. You're right, we have to learn to be empathetic in life and learn to be and love who we are instead of deliberately trying to be who / what the society wants us to be.

So very well said, thank you for speaking your truth, it helps me articulate my own introvert feelings, blessings from Australia

everything is relaxing ... your beautiful face your home your way of living your brushes the light in your home and nature puts us at peace.

Thank you for this video! It really helped me.

This is so beautiful Sophie, you truly did your home work. I love you💕

As always this is such a beautiful video! Thank you for articulating the world of introverts so thoughtfully. I am often mistaken for an extrovert but need alone time to energize and recharge - and often. It took a long time for me to understand this about myself, but it has been the most valuable learning. Thank you again for your work! xx

can we please take a moment to just appreciate the beauty of her hair? So shiny and flawless!!! love this video! i'm an introvert too! love your content!New subscriber!!!

U r absolutely right 👌❤️

I feel the same with you. Being as a human, we all have different personalities and different mindset. That's Ok to live the way we love. That's never wrong. We just need to value, understand others and empathize each other. My most favorite sayings from this video, "Nothing can dim the light that shine from within" "You have set boundaries for yourself and the world should honor that". Thank you for this video and get to reflect myself too. 💚

Thank you for this.

Thank you so much for this beautiful vídeo. While listening to you I felt as you were talking about me. I'm an introvert too and the way you describe yourself is exactly the way I describe myself. Regards from South America

I feel like you Sophie... I'm introverted but I don't feel alone! Congratulations on the video theme! I,m from Brazil , so thanks for the Portuguese subtitles!🙏🏻🌞

I absolutely loved this video of yours, as I love every single one. There is something so special about taking that perfect day for yourself to ponder and create within nature and away from the oversaturated world. Thank you for giving us a deeper glimpse into another layer of who you are. Truly grateful for you and your channel.

Loved this one♥️♥️

I can relate to this video to myself. I am an introvert and I love my company. I know how people misjudge introverts and consider them as unsocial beings, which hurts. Thank you, Sophie1 Stay blessed. :)

Hey Sofie, this was so much relatable for me. I'm an Introvert, but I love to talk much to only people who are spacial to me. I talk with my pets, Animals. People find it funny sometimes but really who cares. I never regret I'm like this. Your videos bring so much Calmness & steadiness to my days. Thank you for this video too 🙏🏻👍🏻🥰 Love to you 😇

For an ultimate introvert, I do not even want to let people come into my world. Kudos for revealing yourself.

Absolute truth

❤ all love to all of the other introverts out there!

Very soothing voice just to listen too. What a beautiful place you live in!

Beautiful message Thank you.🌻🌞 I am a Introvert as well. May you and your family have a blessed week.

Love this video, i was very shy when i was little, timid, still have social anxiety, and to accept these, was very difficult for me… why i am like this .. i used to think… in the last months, i realized that, its fine, its who I am, and this make me different, special, and stop to try to fit in .. thank you so much for this video !!! Loove it !!

I listened to every and each word, and I feel like you have been describing me.. I love to be alone, not that I don’t like people, but when I stay for so long with people and days, I feel like I need a break because I miss my space so much…. 👉🏼👈🏼 but when I have guest I give them all my hearth and my soul to make them feel very welcome!

I am an introvert and I love finding videos like these because it feels like I have found my community. It’s tough being an introvert in an extroverted world. I am constantly exhausted and misunderstood. Glad I am not alone. Love to all my fellow introverts. We’re awesome!

Such a lovely and inspiring video 💕

Thank You Malama for this beautiful video. In my word, being introvert means love and understand ourselves. And once we through this process and another process start where you are in and spreading your idea's and life.

Hearing your voice is better than any medication

I truly love and appreciate this video because you have expressed it beautifully. Its like you took all the words out from my mind and heart. 🥰 I grow up and was raised by extroverts and in an "assertive" environment where they speak their minds (debating etc.) and enjoy attention very much. I was told many times that I am an odd one out, the meek or the "silent one" for I enjoy alone time, doing art, and listen to music and get lost in my own fantasy. Even my profession or job is my passion and it's waaaay different from what they expected me to be. (Interior designer amongst the medical professionals) I was even told by my relatives to thicken my skin and to be "stronger" but I have a different perspective on my strengths. Despite all of these, I still like people and enjoy meaningful interactions because I feel and empathize with them. I just tend to feel overwhelmed at times so I really need retreat once in a while. I used to think introversion is something to be "fixed" because that's what I was told to change my behavior. But you know what? I have embraced it, accepted it and nothing beats being MYSELF and being TRUE. I can contribute something great to the world in my own ways. So thank you so much for this inspiring video. I felt relieved actually. 😍😍😍

Beautiful, thank you for this! -from another introvert

I feel like the video is made for me. Thanks for your video. It mades me understand and accept myself instead of keep pushing myself to be enthusiastic in the crowd. ❤️🥰🙏

Sofia I'm an introvert too thanks for sharing your thoughts that's beautiful artwork you're doing right there love and hugs xx 🌺
