I know how you feel. I started my online business over 7 years ago helping people explore their full voice and self-expression.

When I started I was the strange bird committed to seeing my clients and their voices as already whole. What I was teaching would never be accepted by a jury of my peers much less the universtiy halls of pedagogy that I'd come from.

Isn't it frustrating paying for expert coaches and their proven strategies who don't take the time to understand what you do before they dismiss it for a generic version of visibility?

When it's time to show up with their idea you freeze or panic because it feels completely inauthentic?

I chose differently

I wasn't spending the energy to create a business only to end up working towards someone else's idea of success.

I knew that I didn't want a business that felt like a job but a business that would support a lifestyle of freedom while I got to play in my zone of genius.

I knew that my energy wouldn't be sustainable in my business if it felt depleting or I didn't make a significant difference for my clients.

Have you ever noticed that people can look all shiny and polished online and yet you don't connect to them at all?

That they are saying the right words but they don't resonate .

What they are doing is speaking without connection to their vital energy. They are saying what they were told to say, what they think you want to hear, what may even be true for them but you can't tell because there is no connection to their authentic voice.
