In this supportive and enlightening episode of Quietly Visible, host Carol Stewart speaks with Joy Langley, a psychotherapist, mindset coach, and author of Navigating Stress.
Together, they explore how introverted women in leadership can manage internal pressures, deal with imposter feelings, and silence the inner critic that too often whispers, “You’re not enough.”
Joy brings her calm wisdom to a conversation about personality, perfectionism, and power. Drawing on her work with high-achieving women, she explains the difference between introversion and extraversion, how personality traits shape our inner dialogue, and why self-compassion is a critical leadership skill.
