Anna Reel is an incredible writer, blogger, YouTuber, and coach. As an introvert, Anna struggled with finding the significance in her own gifts when they appeared to be better suited for extroverted people.

For those versed in personality type systems, Anna is an INFJ and identifies as an Enneagram type 1. Also a type 1, Sarah and Anna laugh at how different they are despite having some of the same core motivations!
