stand where you can be seen: engineering your own luck

In this week’s episode, we’re talking about visibility and how it might be the missing piece between where you are and where you want to be.After reading a piece by Alexa DaFonte about “engineering your own luck,” we started thinking about how often we wait to be discovered instead of making ourselves findable. We assume people know what we want. We assume the right opportunity will land. We assume timing will just… work itself out.But what if luck responds to proximity, clarity, and the courage to be seen?We talk about how visibility shows up in dating and career, why courage matters more than confidence, and the small daily ways you can expand your “surface area” without becoming performative or cringe.We also share some life updates — including Meag’s spontaneous travel magic, what it’s like being single around couples, and recent moments where taking initiative led to unexpected connection.This episode is for the woman who knows she wants more and is ready to participate a little more boldly in her own life.Original inspiration:Follow Alexa DaFonte on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@alexadafonteRead “Engineering My Own Luck” on Substack: https://alexadafonte.substack.com/p/engineering-my-own-luck-if-anyone
