The Introverted Misfit Podcast
Human Experience Topics with an Awkward, Introverted Twist
Listen On: YouTube Spotify Podcasts Apple Podcasts
This podcast covers a wide realm of topics related to human connection and communication from an introverted misfit’s perspective.
Growing up as a neurodivergent introverted woman with Autistic Spectrum Disorder (ASD) - a combination that fueled my severe social anxiety for almost a decade - I used to think the only way to be a part of a community was to exude lively, extroverted sociability. As I grew into myself, however, I realized that each one of us has a valuable place in society, no matter what your personality type is. Through this podcast, you’ll learn to let go of your fears, improve your communication skills, master emotional intelligence, build thriving relationships, be your authentic self, and think about things from a different perspective.
We’ll talk about the human experience, introversion, extraversion, social anxiety, self-confidence, communication styles, neurodivergence, relationships of all kinds, building community, and anything under the sun that I think and hope will help you realize the great importance of human connection - with a slightly awkward, introverted twist.
Stay tuned for new episodes every Monday!

I’m Caroline Smith
- Your in-ear communications and social skills guide.
I’m not an expert in communicating or socializing; I’m just a former socially awkward, anxious woman who had to overcome my social skills deficits and my extreme shyness to create fulfilling relationships in my life.
For about a decade, my personal and professional growth had been stunted by my severe social anxiety. And what was at the source of that anxiety? My innate social ineptness, or as it’s more commonly known as high-functioning Autistic Spectrum Disorder (ASD).
With this podcast, my hope is that you can learn a thing or two about your own communication strengths and weaknesses by listening to the experiences of someone who has naturally struggled with communication for their entire life - me!
