Us introverts often struggle with feeling like we need to show up in certain ways to match extroverts’ energies – for example, through dancing on reels, creating long-form video content or going to in person networking events. These often make us feel uncomfortable and awkward, so we aren’t able to show up as our best selves. However, imagine if you could show up in a way that felt good to you, demonstrating your personality through your words and photos, instead of it ending up hidden when you show up in ways that are out of alignment? Well, today’s guest is passionate about just that!

Joining me today is creative copywriter and brand photographer, Sarah Wayte. She’s always been creative, but it took a 20-year paramedic career to work out what she really hated doing and a move halfway across the world to finally do the thing she really wanted to do. She previously ran a successful wedding and portrait photography business for almost 8 years alongside her ambulance service life. And Sarah Wayte Creative has been her full-time obsession since 2019. English-born with proudly Maltese heritage, she’s an introvert with a fiery, passionate heart. Sarah’s a cat-Mum to two, childfree by choice, and wife to a fella who goes with all her madcap ideas. And she’s all about helping you to express your real, honest self through your words and photos.
This episode will be perfect for you if you feel afraid of showing up as your true self, or that you haven’t yet found the way for you to show the world who you really are!

- Growing a business as an introvert and staying visible
