940: LEADERSHIP MINDSET: How to Overcome Visibility Avoidance

2d ago 29:22

MP3•Episode home

During a recent retreat I led for my business coaching clients, we had the opportunity to do a deep dive into visibility avoidance. We discussed this phenomenon that happens when we want to grow in new ways, but the prospect of heightened visibility holds us back. Sometimes, when we take steps into higher visibility opportunities, we are excited by the outcomes. But, shortly after the perceived win, we feel a sense of vulnerability that pulls us back to our pre-visibility zone of comfort, and we determine that pre-visibility space is the safer or more appropriate place for us to stay for the time being.

Visibility can be wildly uncomfortable. It can bring up a lot of thoughts, feelings, and beliefs in which we create swirling narratives that are more harmful than helpful. When we get stuck here, we stunt our own growth. We shrink ourselves. We play small. We allow ourselves to tap into only a fraction of our full potential.

In this episode, we explore the concept of visibility avoidance and highlight the common underlying self-limiting beliefs that hinder your personal and professional growth. I talk through how specific thought patterns undermine behavior patterns, keeping you accepting less than the best for yourself. Then, I give you simple steps for overcoming visibility avoidance that will allow you to strategically increase visibility through small steps over time, allowing you to reach those goals you’ve been dreaming of in a way that feels exciting and rewarding!

This episode will help you recognize the payoffs of stepping into your full potential when you do it in a way that feels safe and aligned with who you are and where you want to go.
