Generosity, AI and Self-Censorship
Your desire to be liked, while very human, is the very same thing that’s diluting your difference, killing your visibility, and keeping you from the opportunities you know you’re capable of.
In this episode, we dive into a potent cocktail of visibility blocks—generosity, AI, and self-censorship—and how they’re quietly sabotaging your marketing, messaging, and leadership.
You’ll discover:
- Why getting a new brand that properly represents you won’t stop you from hiding in plain sight, even when you love it
- What you should never outsource in this age of AI – and why you need to hold onto this if you want to be the big deal that you know you are.
- You think people are hiring your services – what your clients are actually buying when they hire you.
- The one powerful shift that will unlock your ability to speak with boldness, clarity, and unshakable self-trust.

You’ll learn:
