Are you waiting for everything to be “perfect” before you put yourself out there as a speaker?
Trust me, I’ve been there—and I get it. But perfectionism often masquerades as productivity when really, it’s just fear pressing pause on your progress.
In this episode, I’m diving into how you can increase your visibility as a speaker this year—without getting caught in the perfection trap or burning yourself out.
You'll learn:
- Why action creates clarity (and how taking steps before you feel ready leads to real growth)
- The 3 things I recommend focusing on to boost your visibility
- How to choose the right visibility channels, so you’re showing up in the right places consistently
- Why having a versatile and adaptable signature talk is a game-changer
- Ways to pitch smarter (not harder) for speaking and media opportunities that align with your message
Whether your website isn’t quite updated or your bio still needs work—don’t wait. Start now.
Momentum builds when you move, not when you sit still waiting for a green light.
You have a message that matters, and there are people who need to hear it. Don’t let perfectionism keep them from finding you.
