The Flourishing Introvert Talks


Dec 19, 2024

The very first ally we need is ourselves. This could not be more true for we introverts as well.

 

In this episode, I explore the concept of self-allyship for we introverts and how it differs from advocacy.

 

Previously, I discussed advocating for system-level change to support introverts. However, self-allyship is about providing personal support and encouragement in a world that often favours extraversion. Drawing on my 30 years as a leadership and skills trainer, I emphasise the importance of embracing one's nature while combatting societal biases.

 

It is in fact necessary that we become our own ally to navigate internalised negative beliefs and systemic biases.
