Ever feel invisible or overlooked because you're not the outgoing, boisterous, overly-social butterfly at work?

If you identify as an introvert or are unsure, and want to tap into your strengths so you're recognized and rewarded for them, listen to this episode!

Today's guest, Stacey Chazin, a dynamic leadership development coach and proud introvert, is rewriting the narrative on introversion. Having grappled with societal expectations that favored extraversion, Stacey underwent a remarkable transformation. Instead of conforming to societal pressures, she embraced her introverted qualities, turning them into powerful assets that allowed her to thrive both professionally and personally. Now, as a fervent advocate for introverts, Stacey draws on her extensive corporate and non-profit experience, a master’s in organizational development and leadership, and certification as a Myers-Briggs Type Indicator® (MBTI®) practitioner to empower introverts, guiding them toward self-acceptance, fulfillment, and success in the workplace and beyond through her business I-Factor Leadership.
