"Introversion is neither a deficit nor a superpower. It's who I am."
I've been talking more about this recently, as I feel called to support my fellow introverts, so I was delighted to appear on Carol Stewart's Quietly Visible podcast to talk about introverted leadership. The video below gives a flavour of our conversation.
Here's the episode description: "In this uplifting and honest conversation, Carol speaks with writer, educator, and anti-racism activist Sharon Hurley Hall about what it truly means to model showing up as an introvert. Sharon shares her journey from journalism to activism, how she learned to embrace her introversion with confidence, and why being “intentionally visible” matters for quiet leaders. They explore how introverts can raise their visibility through writing, share strategies for setting boundaries and avoiding burnout, and discuss the importance of creating introvert-friendly spaces. Sharon also talks about her Self-Expression Immersion and her upcoming masterclass Seven Secrets of Introvert Success: A Masterclass for Quiet Revolutionaries, designed to help introverts show up authentically and thrive."
