100. The cost of self-censorship - Why we hold back
Description
The Cost of Sales Censorship
There’s a real price we pay when we silence ourselves in our business.
In this episode, I unpack how sales censorship shows up—especially for people with marginalized identities—and how self-editing keeps us from attracting the aligned clients we’re here to serve.
We talk about:
- Why reusing the same visuals can signal stagnation (and repel your audience)
- The deep fears behind being visible with an accent or bold opinion
- How systemic oppression, not personal failure, fuels the fear of being seen
- Why Sweet Spot and Industry Outlier shoots help you take up space unapologetically
- What happens when you stop self-censoring and start owning your individuality
If you’ve felt stuck showing up because you’re afraid of how you’ll be perceived—or if you’re tired of “playing it safe” with your messaging—this episode is a permission slip to say what you really want to say, and be seen for who you really are.
