“Put yourself out there and don’t worry about what other people think.” — Tamara Thompson (08:00-07:04)
Afraid of being a public persona? You’re not alone. Maybe you fear putting something out there because too many people might see it. Or criticize your work. Realize that when we keep playing smaller than we’re capable of, we prevent ourselves from living out our mission in life. There is a visionary leader inside each one of us. In this week’s episode, Dianne Allen, together with her special guest, Tamara Thompson, talks about the fear of visibility and imposter syndrome.

But there’s another thing: some people, despite the evident success, have a feeling of inadequacy. They want to position themselves differently on social media than the way they are in their everyday practices. Put yourself out there and don’t worry about what other people think.
