Ohhh I love this. I am both introverted and extroverted. So I can relate. We are amazing! I dont hug the lime light I dont micromanage I simply let people be who they will and the results are amazing!

Introversion doesn't have much to do with self doubt or lack in confidence it is just an ability to observe and assess the world without needing interaction with others to do so.

Good talk, thank you. Hopefully this goes some way to helping more people understand what intervention is and isn't. I really wish introversion was a protected characteristic!

I didn't put my hand up in class because I knew all the answers and I wanted to give the other students a chance. You see, in addition to being an introvert, I am also an empath.
