Summary

Up to 40% of people consider themselves shy. You might say you're introverted or awkward, or that you're fine around friends but just can't speak up in a meeting or at a party. If you get nervous in social situations, you've probably been told, 'Just be yourself!' But that's easier said than done, especially if you're prone to social anxiety. Weaving together cutting-edge science, concrete tips, and the compelling stories of real people, Dr. Ellen Hendriksen proposes a groundbreaking idea: you already have everything you need to succeed in any unfamiliar social situation. As someone who lives with social anxiety, Dr. Hendriksen has devoted her career to helping her clients overcome the same obstacles she has. Dr. Hendriksen takes the reader through the roots of social anxiety and why it endures, how we can rewire our brains through our behaviour, and exactly how to quiet your Inner Critic.
