169: Scared of Promoting Yourself? Here’s the Reframe That Changed Everything for Me
Update: 2025-08-30
Description
If you’re a working mom with a side business, you’ve probably felt the fear of putting yourself 'out there'. Maybe it feels selfish, salesy, or just plain uncomfortable to talk about yourself online, especially when you’ve got colleagues, bosses, or even family watching.
I know, because I’ve been there. For years, I hid behind quotes, generic posts, or faceless updates because showing me felt too vulnerable. But here’s what I learned: staying invisible isn’t humble, it’s actually holding you back from helping the very people who need you.
In this episode, I share:
- Why self-promotion isn’t selfish (it’s service)
- How I went from hiding to posting photos, soundbites, and real stories
- Simple, safe first steps you can take to build visibility without overwhelm
- A framework (Before → During → After → Debrief) to share your journey in a way that connects and builds trust
- Tips for balancing visibility with professionalism when you’re still employed
It’s always scary at first but it gets easier. And showing up online with intention can be the key that unlocks your first client.
