What if the fastest way to stop dreading social events… is to host one yourself? In this episode, Susan breaks down the counterintuitive truth that hosting a party is one of the most powerful confidence-building tools for socially anxious, introverted, or socially awkward professionals. You'll learn why hosting gives you control, structure, predictability, and emotional safety; the exact ingredients your nervous system has been craving.

What You'll Learn

  • Why attending parties feels terrifying, and why it's not your fault
  • How hosting flips the social script and reduces 70% of your anxiety before guests arrive
  • The confidence-boosting psychology behind curating your own guest list
  • How hosting allows introverts to manage their energy without seeming awkward
  • Why small, intentional gatherings are the perfect "social gym" for building new skills
  • The identity shift that happens when you go from "avoider" to "connector"
  • Practical steps to plan your first low-stress, high-confidence gathering

If you've spent years avoiding parties, shrinking at invitations, or replaying awkward moments on the drive home, this episode will show you a new path.
