In honor of Mental Health Awareness Month, I wante In honor of Mental Health Awareness Month, I wanted to share a bit about my recent ADHD diagnosis.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Yup! You read that correctly. At my big age of 37, I've been diagnosed with inattentive ADHD.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I would have never thought to seek an evaluation without reading about the experiences of other women online who have been diagnosed later in life.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ For the first time, I have an explanation for why I think, work, and create the way that I do. It was eye-opening to learn that I'm not a serial procrastinator, lazy, or "just didn't want it bad enough".⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ At this point, it has been about 2 months since my diagnosis. I'm finally starting to settle in and figure out what type of supportive structures I need to have in place to continue growing my business while creating my best work.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ On the podcast this week, I'm sharing my experience with ADHD in hopes of destigmatizing the condition. It's really common but severely underdiagnosed in women.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I also want to bring awareness about ADHD to other creative entrepreneurs who might be struggling, know something is off but can't figure out what it is.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Check out episode 113 of #PimpYourBrilliance 🎧.

Is fear holding you back from showing up and being Is fear holding you back from showing up and being visible online?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ If it is, I want to share a secret with you. When I started this podcast 4 years ago, it freaked me out to record on my own. I was perfectly fine doing interviews but the solo shows made me break out into a cold sweat.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Recording solo shows meant that I had to stand on my own expertise, offer my point of view, share my insights, opinions, and overall try to sound smart. No pressure!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ All of that brought up feelings around imposter syndrome, fear of judgment, perfectionism, and left me feeling vulnerable. I was convinced that someone was going to burst my bubble and expose me as a fraud.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ What if people hated my voice? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ What if I received hate emails because someone disagreed with something that I shared? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ What if people found out I don't know everything?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Spoiler alert! None of those what-ifs have happened and I don't know everything.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Maybe you have similar fears that are holding you back from showing up fully in your business. You know that you need to be more visible but you can't seem to overcome the fear.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Well, you're in luck because today on the podcast, I'm going to share my 6 step process for overcoming your fear of being visible online.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Go listen on your favorite podcast app by searching for Pimp Your Brilliance, click the link in my bio, or visit pimpyourbrilliance.com/111. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Then come back and let me know your thoughts - Are you letting your fears of being visible online hold you back?
