Quiet, Please, Season 1, Episode 28

Inspired by a couple of passages in Ellen Oh's Finding Junie Kim which reminded me of Susan Cain's TED Talk called "The Power of Introverts [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c0KYU2j0TM4]", as well as her book Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can't Stop Talking [https://bookshop.org/books/quiet-the-power-of-introverts-in-a-world-that-can-t-stop-talking/9780307352156]. Cain also wrote a book for children and teens called Quiet Power: the Secret Strengths of Introverted Kids [https://bookshop.org/books/quiet-power-the-secret-strengths-of-introverted-kids/9780147509925]
