🎙️ S2 Episode 4: Myth-Busting: What Nobody Tells You About Visibility

from Awesomely Off-Topic: Books, Brands, Business and Everything Else We’re Not Supposed to Say Out Loud · host Taz Thornton and Asha Clearwater

🎙️ Episode 4: Myth-Busting Visibility - What Nobody Tells YouEveryone bangs on about visibility like it’s the golden ticket.Show up. Go viral. Get a TEDx talk. Land some PR. Build a following.Job done… right?Not quite.In this episode, we’re getting honest about the side of visibility that doesn’t make the highlight reel. The stuff people don’t warn you about. The expectations that don’t match reality. And the bits that can feel brilliant one minute and deeply uncomfortable the next.We talk about: Why “just showing up” isn’t a strategy  The truth about TEDx talks, PR, and going viral  What visibility actually looks like behind the scenes  Being recognised in real life (and why it can feel a bit weird)  Trolls, backlash, and having your values out in the open  Why one big moment won’t build your business  The quieter, more sustainable way to grow your visibility There’s also a story in here about a client who found Taz through a random lockdown interview with Heather Peace - which pretty much sums up the real message of this episode: visibility doesn’t always work the way you think it will.It’s not about one big break. It’s about consistency, connection, and actually giving a shit about the people you’re here to serve.Quick note: this episode was recorded on 10th April, so when we mention Taz’s birthday being “tomorrow”, that was true at the time… just not when you’re listening!If visibility has ever felt confusing, frustrating, or a bit like smoke and mirrors, this one’s for you.Something you’d love us to know?
