Description
Do you ever feel like everyone is watching when you show up in your business?
That people are noticing what you post, judging what you say, or remembering that thing you shared six months ago?
The good news is: they probably aren't taking anywhere near as much notice of you as you think they are.
In this short solo episode, I’m talking about the psychology behind why visibility can sometimes feel so exposing - and why understanding what’s actually going on in our brains can make showing up feel a whole lot easier.
I talk about:
The spotlight effect and what it means for your visibility
Why we assume people are paying far more attention to us than they really are
Why your awkwardness probably isn't as obvious as you think
Why we can end up rejecting ourselves before anyone else gets the chance
A simple reframe to remember the next time you’re worrying what people will think
Plus, I share a little about Brave, my two-week online visibility experience, which is returning in October. Join the waitlist here.
