Wanky Thoughts

You know you need to sell.  You know you need to show up. But the minute you go to post that offer, a little voice pipes up: “Who does she think she is?” 😬 So you water it down. Or you don’t post it at all. This week I’m chatting with the brilliant Nina de Sausmarez , confidence coach, LinkedIn queen and woman I’ve been fan-girling since we met in a room full of sequins ✨ We get into why so many...

In an AI age, being visible ain't an option... unless you wanna end up broke working in Greggs. If you want paying clients, you have to build trust, which means showing up, showing your face and talking on camera.
