You NEVER have to change who you are to grow your business

Introverts always get the message (implicitly or explicitly) they should try to be more extroverted. We’re told to not be so shy, to speak up more, to make ourselves more visible. We’re constantly told how we should change, especially when it comes to growing our businesses.

But the truth is …

… you NEVER have to change yourself to live your dreams and build a successful business. In fact, the more you are true to yourself and your introverted ways, the easier it is to create a business you adore.

In this book, I show you how I turned myself from a crappy hermit, who never had enough alone time, to a happy hermit, who has all the freedom and space she wants.

More importantly, you’ll discover how you, too, can build a business that allows you the freedom you desire without changing who you are or doing things you hate!

Top review from the United States

Peter Vogt, Introvert Insights
4.0 out of 5 stars To Thrive, You Need to Be Who You Are
Reviewed in the United States on August 8, 2022
The Happy Hermit is inspiring. It’s also scary, in the best possible sense of the word.

As the book’s subtitle suggests, The Happy Hermit is author Brigitte van Tuijl’s way of illustrating how to thrive—authentically—as an introvert entrepreneur.

How do you do it? Well, that’s where inspiring-and-scary comes in.

van Tuijl is firm in her conviction: If you want to truly thrive, particularly in the context of having your own business, you need to be who you are as an introvert.

“I find it extremely important to show introverts that they really do not have to change ANYTHING about
themselves,” she emphasizes in the book’s introduction.

The challenge, of course, is believing this inspiring concept in your heart of hearts, particularly in an extraverted culture. It’s a mental battle that van Tuijl herself has been waging for the last decade or so.

But as she argues in the book, in memoir-ish style, there really is no other viable option if you want to
flourish without losing yourself.

van Tuijl offers tips and troubleshooting strategies throughout the book, and she’s unafraid to share her own struggles and doubts, both past and present.

Her bottom line is unwavering.

“The way to be happy and thrive,” she says, “is to be completely true to yourself and do what you
love in ways that you love.”

5.0 out of 5 stars Highly recommended for introverts

A refreshing take on being an introvert! The author firmly believes that you're perfect just the way you are and it's a matter of learning what you need to thrive (rather than minimize the negative impact of an extrovert world.) Each chapter ends with exercises for reflection and going deeper. If you're an introvert this book is a must-read!
