00:00:13.085 --> 00:00:14.675
Welcome back to the Author's Edge.
00:00:14.675 --> 00:00:19.594
I am your host, Allison Lane, delivering for you this Quickie.
00:00:19.824 --> 00:00:29.664
So that you can listen on your way to the dry cleaner or the CVS because you know, in six or seven minutes you could get what you need.
00:00:29.903 --> 00:00:30.653
Do you hear what I said?
00:00:30.653 --> 00:00:31.314
Six, seven?
00:00:31.373 --> 00:00:34.374
I don't even know what that means, but my kids do.
00:00:35.704 --> 00:00:37.024
Here's what we're talking about today.
00:00:37.204 --> 00:00:41.524
If visibility feels too self-promotional, you are in good company.
00:00:41.584 --> 00:00:42.543
You are not alone.
00:00:42.573 --> 00:00:53.774
A lot of folks avoid promoting their accomplishments and how they can help people because it feels like they're performing.
00:00:54.524 --> 00:00:56.893
And the real issue isn't about confidence.
00:00:57.274 --> 00:01:01.723
It's about defining the problem.
00:01:02.283 --> 00:01:04.813
Because visibility gets mislabeled.
00:01:05.293 --> 00:01:12.914
It gets mislabeled as, look at me, or as selling yourself or chasing attention.
00:01:12.914 --> 00:01:19.813
And I, I really would like for you to just reframe how you are thinking of this.
00:01:19.813 --> 00:01:23.293
Because the people who know, you know how valuable.
00:01:24.149 --> 00:01:27.269
Your insight and your perspective and your experience are.
00:01:27.328 --> 00:01:34.679
But nobody else does, and all of those people deserve to have access to what you already know.
00:01:36.058 --> 00:01:40.319
Visibility is not self-promotion, it's translation.
00:01:40.649 --> 00:01:46.078
It's making your thinking easy to find and understand.
00:01:47.338 --> 00:01:51.569
If the right people can't find you, then they don't get to benefit from you.
00:01:51.778 --> 00:01:55.409
They default to whoever's loudest, not whoever's best.
00:01:55.468 --> 00:01:56.549
You can take this one.
00:01:56.549 --> 00:01:57.358
Simple action.
00:01:57.659 --> 00:01:59.759
Just one post.
00:02:00.179 --> 00:02:03.838
One thing you already say in private.
00:02:05.278 --> 00:02:06.448
Just one person.
00:02:06.868 --> 00:02:09.149
One question you answer all the time.
00:02:09.658 --> 00:02:13.348
One mistake you help people stop making.
00:02:14.038 --> 00:02:17.128
No pitch, no sales, just clarity.
00:02:17.429 --> 00:02:19.408
Here's a question I get all the time.
00:02:19.618 --> 00:02:20.669
Here's my answer.
00:02:20.878 --> 00:02:22.378
You'll be helping people.
