Shy and Free™ is a self-help guide for transforming shyness into wholeness and happiness. Shyness is not the complete you. Shy and Free™ pioneered transforming (instead of overcoming) shyness based on personal experience being unsatisfied with approaches that promise much but leave us feeling worse about ourselves. You can be Shy and Free™ to live the life you desire because you are more than your shyness. My journey taught me that while I thought I needed to conquer my shyness that in fact, focusing on the many other parts of my self was actually the key to change.
