All too often, perceptions of #quiet seem to be equated with needing to 'build confidence' and 'speak up' to fit in. No wonder we sometimes doubt that we have what it takes to make the contribution we want to in the world. But it shouldn’t have to be this way... 1/2 #Introvert

Sure, there’s room for us to grow our confidence. But that’s not about becoming a louder, chattier version of ourselves. It’s about being comfortable with who we truly are. Working with our quieter natures & spending time in inclusive spaces that allow us to be our true selves 💙
