310: How to Show Up For People When You’re Not a People Person

Showing up for relationships doesn’t come naturally to everyone, especially if you’re goal-oriented, introverted, or wired to default to productivity over connection. In this episode, I'm sharing how I learned to consistently show up well for the people I love without forcing myself to become someone I’m not.

Instead of relying on spontaneity or guilt, I'm breaking down how pre-determined rhythms and simple systems can help you stay connected, even in busy seasons of life!

In this episode, we cover:

• Why struggling with connection doesn’t mean something is wrong with you
• How hustle culture quietly deprioritizes relationships
• Why systems can actually be a form of care (not inauthenticity)
