You could be the most qualified person in the room, and still not get hired. That stings, right? But if you’ve ever heard someone say, “Oh wow, I didn’t know you do that now!” then you’ve met the curse of the Invisible Expert.

The truth is, being amazing at your work is just half the battle. The other half? Making sure the right people know you’re out there. In this episode, Susan Guthrie calls out the disconnect between being skilled and being seen; breaking the “Invisible Expert” curse for good.

In today’s world, visibility is non-negotiable. You can be the best in your field, but if no one knows what you do, they’ll hire someone else who simply showed up. To break the Invisible Expert curse, you’ll learn:

  • What it really means to be “invisible” in your profession and how visibility is the bridge between your value and your client.
  • The tell-sale signs that you are an invisible expert.
  • How to shift your mindset to think about visibility not as ego. It’s about connection and service.
  • Five visibility boosters to break the Invisible Expert curse that you can implement today!
