Flourishing Introverts

Are you ready to create your own ripples on the first Monday of the first 'ber' month of 2024? I know I am! Read the post below to read my intention! Quietly, and intentionally yours -Joanna Rawbone #FlourishingIntroverts #Flourishing #Introverts #AuthenticallyYou #MovingForward #SelfAwareness #MyJourneyMyTerms #Confidence #FlipYourLimitingBeliefs

Reminder - Your boundaries are your responsibility first! Being an introvert, I thrive in quieter spaces and a gentler approach as opposed to loud environment, however being an advocate means I do have to network, socialise, put myself out there on social media because like it or not, majority of platforms (in-person or digital) are still extravert oriented. This makes it hugely important that understand my limits and needs so I know the healthy boundaries I need to maintain for my own psychological safety. My boundaries are the resource in my toolkit that helps me ensure my mental, physical and emotional batteries are well charged so I am prepared for my professional endeavours. Hence, you'll often hear me talk about the significance of pre-charging and re-charging for we introverts. A prominent part of maintaining my boundaries is communicating them, clearly and without hesitation. Afterall, if people don't know where my boundaries are, how on earth can I expect them to be respected? Also boundaries are not about keeping people out, but about preserving my space and creating time for refilling my own cup. They are also about mutual respect and understanding. The most important reality of boundaries is, that they are my responsibility - to define, communicate and sustain. It is about being able to say no without carrying guilt within, and prioritising my needs so I can flourish and operate from a place of my intentions rather than social obligations. It is about my own fulfillment, joy and peace after all, wouldn't you agree? #Introverts #FlourishingIntrovert #Boundaries #SelfCare #Communication #Clarity
