I was TIRED of being the behind-the-scenes wizard—the one making everything happen for everyone else while staying unseen (and underpaid). 😣
I watched others reap the rewards I dreamed of for my own life. And despite my self-doubt and crippling imposter syndrome, I realized something had to change.
❌ I was done waiting for someone to notice me.
❌ I was done hiding my voice and staying in the background.
❌ I was done feeling like I wasn’t good enough to claim my space.
I knew I needed to step into visibility, but I had no idea how to do it.
After all, I wasn’t some big influencer, and the idea of promoting myself online made me cringe.
I didn’t feel like I had the age and advanced degrees to be an "expert".
I didn’t feel like I had the years of experience to be taken seriously.
And yet, deep down, I knew staying invisible was keeping me stuck.
➡️ I imagined another year of my life passing by, still feeling overlooked and frustrated, watching others live the life I wanted.
And that terrified me.
So, I decided, in that moment, to STOP WAITING for permission and START TAKING ACTION.
✅ I decided to tell my story.
✅ I decided to own the authority I already had.
✅ I decided to put myself on critical platforms where my voice and my value could shine.
It wasn’t easy.
🫣 I had to discover the hidden areas keeping me stuck.
🫣 I had to push past the fear of being judged and silence the voice in my head telling me I wasn’t enough.
But as soon as I took that first step, everything started to change.
🪜 I took small steps—positioning myself on line, posting one piece of content, reaching out to one person in my network.
Each time, my confidence grew.
In just a few weeks, EVERYTHING started to shift.
I wasn’t overthinking every word anymore. I was sharing my value without feeling exposed or fake.
Then, the opportunities came.
💰I landed media features and high-paying projects.
💰 I was invited to speak at events.
💰 People started recognizing my value and reaching out to me—not the other way around.
The best part? I didn’t have to be anything other than myself.
That’s when I realized being seen wasn’t about being loud or flashy—it was about being authentic and showing up as myself.
