"An inspiring, helpful celebration of the shy and mighty."
As someone who has always struggled with shyness, and particularly as a child, this book feels very welcome.
Nadia Finer takes a practical, very reassuring approach, highlighting interesting and successful men and women who have achieved everything they wanted or made their voices heard despite being shy.
Those featured include Beyoncé, Einstein, Greta Thunberg and Lewis Hamilton and in addition to holding up such inspiring examples of people who were shy and often bullied succeeding, Finer also offers readers exercises we can do to help us acknowledge our strengths and develop the confidence to make our voices heard.
It’s a book you can either read from start to finish, or dip in and out of, and these life stories make perfect bedtime reading, setting you up nicely for the new day. Shy people, we have nothing to lose but our reticence!
