The Talkative Introvert
Hey everyone! My name is Meliza, and I'm the host of The Talkative Introvert Podcast. As the title suggests, I am very much an introvert, but I love to talk and what better place for a talkative introvert than a podcast? My episodes started off very introvert-centric and it’s still a subject I love talking about and will bring up in my episodes. However, as my podcast progresses, I’ve really enjoyed talking about anything and everything. I also started opening up my podcast to different individuals who have stories to tell and want a place to tell them. You’ll find episodes about introversion, body dysmorphia, personality types, emotional energy, and so much more. Every episode is a little something different. So, if you’re the type of person who enjoys listening to casual conversations, then this is the podcast for you.
