About this listen
The holidays are supposed to be joyful. But for introverts, they can also be overwhelming, draining, and loud in every possible way. In this episode of Soft Talk Hard Truths, Jay and Shay unpack what it really feels like to move through the holiday season as introverts, from sensory overload and nonstop social expectations to the emotional exhaustion that comes from always being “on.”
They dive into why needing space doesn’t mean you don’t love people, how noise and constant interaction affect introverts differently, and why recovery time is not optional — it’s essential. The conversation also touches on outgrowing friendships, grieving relationships that have run their course, and the often-unspoken reality of how men process loss, healing, and emotional change.
With honesty, humor, and plenty of real-life examples, this episode is a reminder that protecting your peace isn’t selfish; it’s survival. If you’ve ever felt drained by the “most wonderful time of the year,” this one’s for you.
