YOU’RE HIDING! I know there’s a hidden side of you — she is sharper than the woman you post. she is funnier. she is right about more things than anyone has given her credit for. she has been articulating your entire life back to you for years and you keep her behind closed doors.
Here’s what happens —you open IG, and a different woman pushes you aside. She takes over (and she is oh so diplomatic!) softer. squarer. apologizing in advance. running every sentence through a filter that asks is this okay. is this too much. is this allowed. by the time it gets to the feed it is unrecognizable. Probably even adding (!) or (lol) to the end of anything that could ruffle a feather.
and then you wonder why you’re not growing. why women with half your skill, passion, experience, and life are out-earning you. why the work is not working.
it is not the dam algorithm. it is not the niche. it is not the camera angle.
it is that the only woman they would ever actually pay for is the one you keep refusing to publish.
the telling is how she gets out. it is the framework that turns the real one into the income, the audience, the brand. a decade of living, finally on the page.
if you felt your name in this, that was not a coincidence.
