Stop Overthinking Visibility: Live Podcast at Womanifest - Ep. 8

Turn visibility pressure into power with this LIVE recording from Womanifest!

In this live episode of The Visible(ish) Podcast, Melissa Howard strips away the noise around "perfect" visibility and shares how to show up authentically in business, without the overwhelm.

Recorded in front of a live audience, Melissa reveals why you DON'T need to post 5 times a day, have a perfect logo, or follow everyone else's rules to build a successful business. Drawing from her experience as a photographer, brand strategist, and ADHD entrepreneur, she offers refreshingly simple strategies for getting visible on YOUR terms.

What you'll discover:

• Why perfectionism is killing your visibility (and what to do instead)
• The simple A-to-B approach that helped a client launch in 3 days instead of 6 months
• How to handle being "too much" AND "not enough" in business
• Real strategies for showing up when you're unwell or struggling
• Why unfollows might actually be good for your business

Plus, hear Melissa answer raw, unfiltered questions from the live audience about everything from starting a podcast to managing visibility when life gets messy.
