Communication + MINDSET Coaching for introverts
Less anxiety, more influence
Speak confidently in front of a room, online, and in social situations without becoming a sweaty, blushing mess with a stress headache.
Have you ever had someone praise you for how calm you seemed while speaking at a meeting / event and think, "I feel like I'm dying!! I need about a year to recover."
What if you could feel as calm and confident as people think you are?
Hi, fellow introvert 👋 I can relate. You might also...
✔️ be described by others as happy, easygoing…and a bit mysterious…you listen way more than you share
✔️ avoid conflict. You'd rather never talk to someone again than have a difficult conversation
✔️ diplomatically see all angles of a situation…which can keep you spinning instead of taking action
✔️ dread giving and receiving feedback
✔️ make sure every voice is heard…but others aren’t always clear on where you stand
✔️ want to be and be perceived as more confident and decisive, but shy away from the spotlight
The hard truth
Extroverts with the gift of gab are perceived as knowing what they’re doing, even if they have no clue.
Introverts who don’t seem as confident are viewed as less competent, even if they excel at what they do.
When you communicate with more confidence, clarity, and conviction, you will feel more at ease, your words will have more impact, and more opportunities will flow your way.
Imagine how unstoppable you could be if YOU spoke up more to share your ideas and what you have to offer.
Stoicism + Psychology + Somatic work
To help my clients become more calm, confident communicators, I teach practical skills that elevate their presence and capture people’s attention.
More importantly, they learn to manage their minds and bodies so they feel less anxious and more confident speaking up and being decisive.
I use evidence-based tools that blend modern psychology, somatic work, and ancient wisdom, specifically Stoicism.
More than 2,000 years ago, the Stoics practiced therapeia, the foundation of today’s leading evidence-based treatment for anxiety: cognitive behavioral therapy.
What it means to be a Stoic leader
When people hear the word ‘stoic,’ they often think of someone who swallows their emotions.
Stoic philosophy, however, involves cultivating healthy emotions and managing unhealthy ones.
Stoic leaders get curious about emotions like anxiety, instead of reacting against them or stuffing them down. This self awareness sets them free.
Once Stoic leaders understand most worries are just stories they tell themselves, they move forward. They focus on what’s in their control to meet the goal. They act and bring people along.
Stoic leaders listen to and are loved by their teams. They communicate clearly, collaborate, and make decisions. Shiny objects and other people’s opinions don’t distract them.
Stoic leaders feel less stress and overwhelm because they’ve shifted the thought, “What will people think?” to “How can I serve?”
About me
Hi, I’m Sarah, a writer and a coach who helps introverts communicate with calm confidence.
In the corporate world, I helped some of the most recognized brands in the world share their message. But I didn’t feel confident sharing my own ideas until I discovered the Enneagram, somatic work, and Stoic philosophy.
Today I use these tools to help my clients transform into Stoic leaders who communicate effectively, inspire their teams, create cultures of openness, and increase profits and performance.
I also developed several award-winning podcasts. You can currently follow The Influential Introvert and Live Without Borders.
