In this episode of Unapologetically Visible, I discuss the challenges of being a visible leader, particularly for women of color. I explore the gap between online personas and real-life identities, the impact of parasocial relationships, and the weight of being misunderstood. I'm also going in-depth, emphasizing the importance of owning one's voice and truth, rather than seeking validation from others. I'm also providing insights into coaching clients through these challenges and encourage you to embrace your visibility unapologetically.

13:39 Coaching Through Visibility Challenges

Takeaways

The gap between online persona and real-life identity is significant.

Misunderstandings often stem from projections based on curated content.

Parasocial relationships can distort perceptions of who we are.

Chasing validation can hinder personal and professional growth.

Visibility brings both opportunities and judgment.

It's essential to own your voice and truth.

Not everyone will like you, and that's okay.

Social media cannot capture the fullness of who you are.

Coaching can help navigate feelings of being misunderstood.

Being visible is about serving those who need your voice.
