Sara, the struggle is real! I can do a speech in front of 500 people. I once debated a guy in college and made his face turn beat red with frustration--he looked like he wanted to cry. But I am not one to approach alone and face to face.
I remember putting together performances for fundraisers and making speeches to groups, but when a donor wanted to speak to me directly. I always needed someone to make the introduction.
I don't like bothering people. I don't know why I think I am bothering people. That's why I say I am a introspective extravert. Large crowd I can quickly move through, but one on one, I'm not good at it.
