Last week covered the introduction to a speech by John Cleese and today we’re taking notes from JK Rowling, the beloved author of the Harry Potter series.

I love how she offers us a compelling example of how introverts can wield charisma in the public eye.

Despite her deeply introverted nature, Rowling has captivated millions of us with her storytelling superpower, advocacy for social issues, and being sincere about herself.

Rowling's life and career exemplify how authenticity, vulnerability, and conviction can elevate introverts to positions of influence and inspire others to action.

By following her example and staying true to themselves, introverts can harness their innate strengths to make a positive impact on the world around us.

Let’s look at 3 A-List Charisma takeaways and calls to action from JK Rowling:

1. **know your true self**: Take a moment to reflect on your own values, passions, and unique perspective. Stay true to yourself in all aspects of your life, whether it's in your personal relationships, professional endeavors, or creative pursuits.

2. **Practice vulnerability**: Challenge yourself to step outside your comfort zone and embrace vulnerability in your interactions with others. Share your experiences, struggles, and aspirations openly and authentically.

3. **Stand up for what you believe in**: Identify causes or issues that are important to you and take action to support them, whether it's through advocacy, volunteering, or simply raising awareness. Stay committed to your convictions, even in the face of adversity or criticism.

Remember, each small step you take toward embracing your authenticity, practicing vulnerability, and standing up for your beliefs has the potential to create ripple effects of positive change in your own life and beyond.
