Any introverts out there who used to get terrible social anxiety and have been able to overcome it? I am grateful that this profession has pushed me to be a better version of myself, and if I compare myself to 4-5 years ago, I have improved enormously. Still presenting in public is not something that comes naturally and my lack of self confidence is still holding me back. Some of us have to work harder to achieve certain things. Any 🐠 out there who have been able to overcome this?
