If you grew up hearing you’re “too much” or “not enough,” visibility can feel like standing under a spotlight with no script. In this energizing chat, transformation coach Jen Vertanen shares how she reverse-engineered her future 80-year-old, fully alive self; and used that vision to show up now.

We talk death-by-a-thousand-paper-cuts conditioning, why authenticity beats polish, and tiny, doable actions that get you visible without being precious, perfect, or burnt out.

1. Why visibility is non-negotiable for coaches, healers, and heart-centered entrepreneurs (and why buyers are craving real over slick).
2. “Too much / not enough” programming and how it quietly blocks your voice…and your marketing.
3. The 80-year-old self exercise: reverse-engineering the qualities, values, and behaviors of your future self so you can embody them today (hello pink hair and fuchsia Docs).
4. Authenticity > perfection: why stumbling, laughing, and being “charmingly awkward” creates trust and connection.
5. Baby-step bravery: the small, safe actions (record to yourself, practice reps on mic/camera) that build confidence fast.
6. The repel era: attracting right-fit clients by being unapologetically you—and letting the wrong ones self-select out.
7. Mindset flip: from “look at me” to “let the right clients find me.” Your work matters more than a flawless delivery.
8. Style as signal: color, clothing, and “you on a good day” visuals as authentic brand cues (not vanity).

1. You don’t need to be “ready”—you need to start (tiny, repeatable reps beat perfect plans).
2. Being visibly imperfect makes you relatable, not risky.
3. Define success from the inside out (identity → action → results).
4. Boundaries are a visibility tool: magnetize your people, repel the rest—on purpose.

If “be more visible” makes you want to hide under a blanket, this one’s for you. Branding photographer and introvert-friendly visibility strategist Jane Mucklow shares gentle, practical ways to show up—without burning out.

We dig into baby-step marketing that actually feels good (think blogging + email before live video), how to use photos when you’re camera-shy, the “you on a good day” rule for brand images, when to book a pro shoot (and when a selfie is perfect), plus the mindset flip from “look at me” to “let the right clients find me.” Hit play and leave with doable moves you can try today.

What we talk about

1. Why visibility can feel extra hard for introverts—and how to ease into it without burning out.
2. “Your pace, not the pace”: starting with writing (blogging, SEO, email) and scheduling social so you’re not “on” all day.
3. Photo confidence for camera-shy founders: relaxing your shoulders, planning the shoot, and shooting “you on a good day” (authentic ≠ unprepared).
4. Simple, no-face content ideas (hands, behind-the-scenes, POV shots) and when/why your audience still needs to see your face.
5. Pro vs. casual photos: how to mix both, and the signals it’s time to update your headshots (new hair, major style change, or the “no one recognizes me on Zoom” test).
6. The reframe that helps you finally post: it’s not “look at me,” it’s “let the right clients find me.”
