The Art of Being Seen

Season #2

Feeling that tug-of-war between wanting to share your gifts and wanting to hide? In this heartfelt conversation, Shawne pulls back the curtain on visibility—exposing the evolutionary roots of “playing small,” guiding you through a grounding pre-visibility ritual, and handing you a story-crafting framework that turns nervous jitters into magnetic connection. Expect somatic practices, compassionate truth-telling, and plenty of permission to treat visibility like the messy, joyful art project it really is.

In This Episode

  • Why Visibility Feels Scary – the ancient wiring behind our fear of judgment and rejection

  • Somatic Check-In 101 – reading your body’s signals before you step into the spotlight

  • The Pre-Visibility Ritual – grounding, heart-checking, movement, and intention-setting (pick-and-mix style)

  • “Don’t Waste a Trigger” – using activation as data for expansion

  • Titration & Safe Spaces – stretching your comfort zone without overwhelming your system

  • Story Framework (Capture → Story → Insight → Invitation) – crafting posts that connect instead of perform

  • Making Visibility Fun Again – bringing toddler-level playfulness to your marketing

  • Next-Level Support – how Vibrant Visibility helps you weave strategy with nervous-system safety

Key Takeaways

  1. Your nervous system isn’t wrong—it's ancient. Give it safety before asking it for bravery.

  2. A pre-visibility ritual can be as short as three breaths and an intention said out loud.

  3. Visibility grows through tiny, consistent doses (titration), not heroic bursts.

  4. Stories land when you lead with emotion first and invitation last.

  5. Fun is a business strategy; levity lowers resistance—yours and your audience’s.
