Welcome to Episode 1 in Season 3

The podcast is back after more than a year on pause, and this season kicks off with a solo episode where I share what I learned in 2023. If you haven't come across human design before, don't worry: I break it all down and explain how it connects to business and marketing.

Show notes

Human design is a system that helps you understand your own traits and strengths. In this episode I share my experience of burnout and how understanding my design helped me find balance again, and I explain the five energy types: manifestors, generators, manifesting generators, projectors and reflectors. Aligning your personal brand and your marketing with how you actually work makes for a more authentic, more sustainable online presence.

"Despite being an online visibility specialist, I was completely burnt out, and I hid it skilfully for years."

From the episode

Why this episode, and why now

Four years into running my consulting business, I hit a wall. Despite being an online visibility specialist, I was completely burnt out, and I hid it skilfully for years. The gap between mastering the craft and managing a business had become obvious. I'd gone from being a passionate marketer to a self-confessed workaholic and course-taking junkie who couldn't find balance.

I was a whirlwind of activity when I launched my business in 2017. I built the website, wrote the content, kept up a vigorous social media presence and ventured into offline networking. I travelled overseas and stepped onto international stages to share what I knew. I even launched this gorgeous little podcast and set up an online training academy. My life became a constant sprint, a million miles an hour, in true manifesting generator style.

When the pace caught up with me

I found myself on a relentless quest, yearning for the big, hyper-successful change I kept waiting for. Eventually the pace took its toll. I was exhausted, unwell and a bit lost, and my body had reached its limits, protesting against the unsustainable lifestyle I'd imposed on it.

Then the breakthrough came, out of that endless cycle of exhaustion. It was triggered by one simple revelation: discovering and understanding my own unique blueprint. In that clarity, the pieces of my life started to fall into place.

Visibility that works with you, not against you

The version of visibility that burnt me out was the one where you do everything, everywhere, all the time. The version I teach now is the opposite: one clear plan, built around how you actually work.

That's The Visibility Bootcamp™, and for one-on-one work, The Visibility Accelerator™, which is by application with a maximum of five clients at a time.
