You’ve built everyone else’s dreams. Now it’s time to build yours. This podcast is for quiet achievers, eldest daughters, and women who’ve always put others first. Hosted by Jennifer Ho, an introverted eldest daughter of Vietnamese immigrants, each episode uncovers the courage and changes required to get you past playing small, keeping quiet, and hiding. Your dream life is waiting on the other side of the scary sh*t you’ve been avoiding. And guess what? On the other side of fear, you get to say “and I didn’t die.” (Formerly Ask an Introvert. Same host, new name!)

voice note #1: stillness feels unsafe, boredom feels like a threat

In this first voice note, I share how doomscrolling until 3 a.m. was a tough reminder on the importance of stillness and boredom.

I normally enjoy calm and quiet, but the more helpless and hopeless I feel, the more my autopilot brain would rather distract and stimulate itself than to sit still with the discomfort.

If you’ve also been reaching for distractions you don’t even like, maybe it’s time to pause, reflect, and make a change.

Voice notes is a miniseries within the And Didn't Die podcast.

I'm treating these like actual voice notes I would send to a friend during the messy moments of life from brain dumping and unexpected realizations to gentle reminders and pep talks.
