Yep, that’s me…
Hi, I’m Kelly. An introvert by nature.
And for a long time? Zero self-esteem to go with it.
I used to get the frustrating advice to just “fake it till you make it” when it came to presentations. But it’s hard to fake confidence when you’re visibly shaking. And more importantly… How is pretending to be someone else supposed to make you feel better about who you are?
What changed everything for me was experiencing coaching first-hand. When I realised I couldn’t “just network” like others because my unconscious mind was trying to protect me from rejection, something clicked.
Nothing was “wrong” with me. My brain was just doing its job. Conditioned by bullying in my past. And once I understood that? Networking wasn’t terrifying anymore. In fact… dare I say it… it even became fun.
I started Little Ripple Coaching because I’ve met so many people who reminded me of myself. Thoughtful, capable professionals who:
Overanalyse every sentence before speaking
Feel sick with nerves before presentations
Struggle to set boundaries for fear of seeming rude or incapable
Stay safely out of the spotlight, even when they deserve to be seen
People who quietly make life much harder for themselves than it needs to be.
You don’t need to become louder.
And you definitely don’t need to fake confidence.
If you’re ready to fully be yourself and learn how to work with your mind instead of against it…
…AND THIS IS LITTLE RIPPLE.
