As I close out 2024, I am getting honest with myself about the milestones I hit in this past year. I received awards and recognitions that I would have encouraged my clients to share across all social media platforms, but didn’t.
What I’ve learned this past year as a content creator is that even when you think you are hiding, your work is still visible especially, if you have the courage to press publish. This episode sparked an idea that's been simmering.

What’s in This Episode:
This episode is an invitation for you to get visible, for you to show up fully, as my previous podcast said.
I tell you about the behind the scenes of my own content creation and invite you to think about how you’ve been both visible and invisible in 2024.
Maybe you might feel the safety of hiding from the big audiences or staying off of social media when there’s an influx of comments to respond to.
But the work still has a life of its own in these digital spaces. And people see it, celebrate it, and feel inspired by it on the other side of the screen.
You’re invited to respond to the journal prompts below and if you need support join us inside Press Publish Club
