The Introvert's Guide to Visibility

The Introvert's Guide to Visibility

Author: Polly Lavarello August 28, 2026 Duration: 21:21

I'm talking about the uncomfortable question behind every plateau: not what you're already good at, but where you're leaving money on the table.

This episode is about visibility, but really it's about the gap between what you're good at and what has infrastructure behind it. I share a client story where brilliant visibility with no funnel behind it was capping her sales, and my own blind spot - quietly calling under-investment in visibility "a flex" because everything else in the business was already working.

We get into why getting started matters more than getting it right, practical ways to ease into showing up on camera without overcomplicating it, and why the version of you people trust is the one that sounds like a person, not a teacher.

You don't need the perfect hook, the perfect edit, or the perfect backdrop. You need to hit publish and keep going.

Highlights

(01:20) - The uncomfortable question to ask when you hit a plateau

(03:26) - "Coach-sulting" — why blind spots need a mirror, not just more knowledge

(05:23) - Polly's own blind spot: calling under-investment in visibility "a flex"
