Fear of Visibility vs The Wrong Thing Entirely: How to tell the difference

I write a lot about the fear of visibility.

It’s for you, but it’s also self-serving. It’s because I need to hear the message as much as you might. It’s because I am still struggling with showing my authentic true self in the face of modern social media, algorithms designed to keep me quiet…you name it, I’ve probably been afraid of it.

And then there’s this voice that’s like, ‘maybe you’re afraid because this is the wrong thing.’

The self-doubt creeps in. And it sits like a cloud of smog over a foreign city I can’t escape.

Does this sound at all relatable? (If so, comment below or DM me on IG @resiliencedoctor)

So, how do we tell the difference between what we’re afraid of and what plain-and-simple isn’t the right thing for us? How do we hone our ability to trust our instincts?

I’ll be posting more about this, and a bit more slowly than I have in the past, because it takes time to suss all this out. It takes time to put out good, intentional content. And I need to listen to my body.

Please let me know what this post brings up for you! :)
