Success In Mind; Motivation, and Inspiration for Entrepreneurs

Afraid of Being Seen? Let’s Talk About Dealing with Online Haters


Listen Later

Ep. 366: In this episode of Success in Mind, I’m sharing something that holds so many of us back from showing up, sharing our message, and being seen: the fear of online haters, trolls, and cancel culture.

I share a deeply personal story about a time I was publicly attacked online by people I once knew—and how that experience nearly stopped me from pursuing my coaching business. But more importantly, I talk about the powerful lesson I learned from it: resilience.

If you’ve ever been afraid to start your podcast, launch your YouTube channel, write your book, or speak your truth because of what “they” might say... this episode is for you.

🎯 Key Takeaways: -

  • Not everyone will like you—and that’s okay. About one-third of the people you meet won’t be your fans, and a small percentage may actively dislike you. That can’t stop you from doing your work. 
  • Visibility comes with criticism. If you want to play big, you have to be ready for the spotlight—and the shadows it casts.
  • You have a choice: Give your power to the haters or to the people you’re here to serve.
  • This is training. Every challenge you face online is preparing you for the next level of your personal and professional growth.
  • Real freedom is not caring about what the wrong people think. The people who can’t be canceled are the ones who stop giving a damn about the opinions that don’t matter.
  • 💡 Episode Highlights:

    • The true story of my first Facebook ad campaign—and how it turned into a 48-hour nightmare
    • The bullying that almost made me quit
    • What my coach said that changed everything for me
    • The “1/3 Rule” of human connection and how it can free you - Why we must stop playing small in a world that needs our message
