And remember, you are already wonderful, just as you are!

Did you know that that 75-80% of our
thoughts are negative?

And that 95% of those thoughts are
repetitive?

That’s what psychologists and
neuroscientists tell us.

That we think about the same negative or
worried or stressful things over and over.

Does that surprise you?

My hot tip today is to start to address this negative bias in a fun, simple way.

Enjoy!

Do you see yourself as
shy?

Do you struggle to
understand how life works; the way other people seem to?

As you walk along the
street, do you wish you weren’t always stepping out of the way?

Well, if you said yes to any of those then
this is for you.

Welcome to Let's Talk About shyness, our
new blog series on how to live with less nervous tension and worry, and more
compassion, confidence and joy!

Today I’d love to give you a hot tip which
you can play with anywhere, any time.

Are you shy?
Do you feel that you're somehow different from other people?
Do you worry that no one really understands you?
And have you noticed? No one seems to want to talk about shyness. Of course not! For us shy people, it feels embarrassing. But shyness is more common than
you think, and I'm here to start the quiet conversation we've all been secretly waiting for.
Welcome to my new series - Let's Talk about Shyness! Join me every week, as we explore how to live with less nervous stress and more joy.
I’m Carolyn Handley, the Shy Woman's Coach, and my passion is to create respectful spaces and communities where it’s safe for us shy people to actually talk about shyness, explore ideas together and to guide you to take tiny, easy steps which add up to making life happier, calmer and more connected with others.

Are you ready for the Festive Season?

Are you gathering with family or friends?

The last month or two has been a bit of a roller coaster ride for me, spending time visiting family members in hospital. And that's made me think about what’s important.

So join me today as I share my 2 top tips for a memorable Festive Season.

Do you tend to listen to others’ stories, but struggle to be seen and heard?

Do you wish that you could confidently share your stories?

I get it. I used to be so quiet. Sitting listening, but not saying much.

Join me today, as I share three ways I learned to let go of nervous shyness and self-conscious thinking and become a storyteller.

And then let's wind down to the weekend together.
