This book started off strong and I was taking notes furiously. Turns out I am an ambivert. My husband is such an introvert that he leaves parties to "regroup" in his office alone. It was interesting to me that "high sensitives" are different than intro/extroverts. I appreciated "orchid v. dandylion" kids. The dominant culture frowns on those of us who are serious thinkers, don't enjoy "selling themselves," and don't have a "default smile." I especially loved the quote, "sit down so others might stand up." Recently I feel the world is led by white men obsessed with their own egos. I am looking to support women and minority leaders. It was hard to get through to the end of the book but I really enjoyed the earlier chapters. I miss seeing you all.
