How to Use Introversion to Your Competitive Advantage | Margaret Soraya

Introverts, did you know you have a competitive advantage—not just as a creative, but even in your business? Today, I connected with Margaret Soraya, an award-winning Scottish photographer, fine artist, and creative thought leader (and just an amazing human).

Proud to embrace her introversion, she spends a lot of time alone, sometimes weeks unplugged, yet still manages to sell out her creative retreats—sometimes within minutes of being listed—and leads an engaged, loyal online community.

Running a business doesn’t have to look just one way. Sometimes, we forget that we co-create our lives. If you feel trapped or pressured to be someone you’re not in order to “make it,” Margaret’s story is for you. As she beautifully says, “The more you get to know yourself, the better your work is.”


TOPICS FROM THIS EPISODE:

  • The competitive advantage of being introverted
  • How self-awareness drives creativity and business
  • How she sells out retreats fast and builds an engaged online community
