Caspar Mahoney was brought up homeschooled, on a remote smallholding. He wasn’t given much social exposure until later in life and found himself to have intense social anxiety, shyness, lack of confidence - in particular around public speaking. He would get hung up on what others thought of him, and was too shy and too proudly independent to ask for help and support. Over time he got over these things through a mixture of trial and error, reading, and coaching. He’s now a coach for introverted men, a triathlete, a 25yr experienced martial artist, and a very confident public speaker.
