Would you like to accept yourself, just as you are? Do you wish you could stop feeling awkward at social events? Would you love to tell stories in a group confidently, without blushing?

I’m Carolyn Handley, the Shy Woman’s Coach. I love coaching women like you. I teach powerful tools so you can stop struggling with shyness, be kind and respectful to yourself, find your voice so you can walk into any room and speak with confidence and ease. And ultimately live with more and more joyful flourishing.
Wonderful woman, do you sees yourself as shy?
Do you feel nervous stress when you’re invited to join a group, socially or at work, and sometimes make excuses not to go?
Do you wish you could express yourself effortlessly, but sometimes you blush or stutter and wish talking could be easier?
Do you sometimes worry that life will always be like this?
I get it. I’ve been shy and sensitive all my life. And I’ve been a champion at stress too!
So darling, I have to ask you – If you don’t deal with the negative impact of your shyness today, I wonder what your life will look like a year from now? How will your health be? How will your relationships be?
And what could you accomplish or experience, if you start to deal with your shyness today?
What if you could accept yourself fully? Think more clearly? Feel calmly confident to express your ideas and opinions and make friends more easily?
What if you could actually enjoy this one wild and wonderful roller-coaster called life?
I have struggled with shyness for my whole life. As a shy, highly sensitive introvert, I lived for many years feeling like a tightly coiled spring and staying in the shadows.
Sometimes I thought – when I go on holidays, I will relax. But when I got there, I was there too! And so was all my anxiety!
Now I have learned how to be my own best friend, feeling calmly confident, building healthy habits and learning to live life with less stress and more and more joyful ease.
Today I have regular coaching and supportive communities, online and locally, to cheer me on. At last I have the momentum and joy I have been searching for.
We live in a culture which values being seen and heard. But I believe that we quiet women have so much to offer the world, once we accept ourselves just as we are and learn how to be calmly confident.
I’d love to guide you, to experience life as a calmly confident woman, accepting yourself however you are, embracing your own personality and discovering that freedom and flow which seem a distant dream today.

I wonder – what was your earliest experience of social awkwardness?
One of mine was at preschool, aged three. Every day I would play with a girl called Ruth, and I was very happy playing with my one friend.
Until that dreaded day when everything changed!
