Why Hiding Your Expertise is Hurting Your Industry (And What to Do About It) with Tiffany Brierley

Got years of industry experience but still hiding in the background? It's time for some tough love.

While you're staying comfortable in your expertise, people are making terrible decisions because they're learning from the wrong voices. The loudest people aren't always the most qualified, and your silence can often be a big part of the problem.

In this episode, Jade sits down with Tiffany Brierley, co-founder of René House CIC, who has over seven years of frontline experience in the supported accommodation sector, watching unqualified people sell courses while the real experts stay quiet.

The turning point? Realising that hiding her hard-earned knowledge while others dominated the conversation was harming the industry.

Tiffany went from someone who absolutely 'hated being on Instagram' and avoided any form of spotlight, to launching her own coaching program and positioning herself as a voice for change in her industry.

But, as always, this didn't happen overnight, and it required facing some uncomfortable truths about responsibility.

In this episode, Jade and Tiffany speak about:

• How Tiffany 'accidentally' fell into supported accommodation
• Why expertise without visibility serves absolutely no one
• The real cost of staying in your comfort zone 
• How business coaching can shift you from expert to industry leader
• Why the most qualified people often resist the spotlight the most
• The ripple effect when one expert finally speaks up
• How to build authority even when you hate self-promotion

"Your expertise isn't yours to hoard - it comes with responsibility. While you're waiting to feel ready, people who need your help are making decisions based on advice from people who've never done what you do every day."

Whether you're an industry veteran watching newcomers get all the attention, or you've been putting off building your authority because it feels 'salesy', or against everything you are, this episode will challenge everything you think about building expertise and putting yourself (and your business) out there. 

Because here's the uncomfortable truth: every day you stay quiet is another day the wrong voices dominate your industry.
