English Talk — Speaking up in English at work for introverts with Louise Jefferies · Ep 58 The Hidden Cost of Overthinking at Work with Linda Terry · 27 Jun 2026 podcast

Join me and my guests as we chat about the challenges of speaking up in English when you're not only a native speaker but also a bit of an introvert.

This week I'm joined once again by Linda Terry.

Linda worked for 30 years as a scientist and senior leader across academia, government and pharma before becoming a coach, which means she is one of the very few people in the coaching world who genuinely understands the culture she is working with from the inside.

She holds an ICF PCC credential and a doctorate degree

and she works exclusively with women scientists who have been promoted into leadership and are quietly losing ground in the rooms where they should be leading.

Linda, thank you for coming back.

It's lovely to see you again on my podcast.

So this episode, Linda, we are recording again because we have similar, well, clients from a similar industry.

So pharma and biotech, and I imagine a lot of them are a similar level, associate director, director and above, and they're struggling with similar things.

And this is a lot of mind chatter, a lot of overthinking, a lot of

thinking back on the days, events, how I could have done better, not letting go of situations.

And it's partially something our clients face, but it's also something very human that a lot of people face.

So we're just here together to discuss similarities and how we help our clients.

Why would you say that's not a comfortable place for scientists to be?

What is it?

I mean...

yeah I mean perfectionism there's two things that come up there perfectionism in scientists if you if you had a scientist who wasn't a perfectionist they probably wouldn't be doing very good science yes and that's where some of the skills that we learn and you know we spent we have a lot of you know

Yeah.

And you've got to get the science right.
