453. Why Playing It Safe Online Is Costing You Clients

Playing it safe online might feel comfortable but what if it’s the exact thing keeping you invisible, stuck, and second-guessing your potential as a coach?

 

In this episode of The Divorce Revolution Podcast, I’m talking directly to the coach who knows she wants to show up more online…but keeps hesitating. The one tweaking her bio again, rewriting captions she never posts, or hiding behind “productive” tasks instead of actually being seen. I break down why visibility feels so scary, what’s really happening underneath that fear, and how taking messy, imperfect action is often the fastest path to clarity, confidence, and clients.

 

 

If you’ve been playing it safe online, waiting to feel more confident before showing up, or hiding behind perfectionism instead of letting yourself be seen, then this episode is for you.
