In this episode of the Changeology podcast, I chat with Emma-Louise Parkes, coach and founder/CEO of The Ambitious Introvert.
Emma-Louise shares her inspiring story of leaving a highly respected, well-paid career as an air traffic controller to start her own coaching business just weeks before the global pandemic hit. She opens up about the doubts, fears, and "what ifs" she faced, and the pivotal moment when she knew it was time to make a change. We delve into the challenges of transitioning careers, the importance of self-trust, and the support systems that helped her navigate this massive shift. Emma-Louise also shares her expertise on introversion and addresses common misconceptions about introverts, and explains how introverts can manage their energy effectively to support them best through times of big change. She discusses the impact of overstimulation and the importance of creating space for reflection.
