Erica Courdae discusses Imposter Syndrome on the Pause on the Play® Podcast

When it comes to visibility, many people believe that more is better.

But churning out content nonstop can leave you feeling exhausted, burned out, and like you’re never doing enough to show up.

What if, instead of being on every platform, we set boundaries and showed up in fewer places, and it was actually essential to your brand being more effective and more successful.

Dr. Marcuetta Sims and India discuss why we need boundaries for our brand presence, the downsides of being visible all the time, and how to tune in and listen to what you need to thrive.

In this discussion:

• How setting boundaries in your brand can leave people wanting more
• How boundaries became a buzzword
• What constantly being “on” takes from us
• How to tune in and set boundaries based on your values

Storytelling is a powerful component of brand visibility.

Telling your story is an opportunity to connect more deeply with others–our people, our audience, our colleagues, our clients–and begin to humanize our brand.

But how do we begin to tell our story? How do we navigate doing that in a way that doesn’t change who we are and builds deep connections?

Hillary Rea joins India for a discussion about storytelling, trust, and taking up space.

In this discussion:

• How Hillary’s three pillars of trust support taking up space
• Why leaders and service providers need to model their work
• How to build trust in your story outside of dominant paradigms

We might think of social media as just another piece of software, but what happens when that software is eliciting an emotional response? What happens when there are humans that you’re engaging with within that software?

In this discussion:

• Questions to help you clarify your relationships with social media platforms

When you think about the people and brands that have inspired you, they’ve all stood out. They’ve all been unique.

But on social media, there’s an energy of perfectionism and of fitting in.

How does perfectionism make us stand out? How does fitting in make us memorable? And how does that support the people witnessing us in feeling something?

Jeff Harry and India continue their conversation about how fear of getting it wrong begets perfectionism online, why acknowledging your mistakes can actually deepen trust in you and your brand, and Jeff shares an exercise to help you bring play back into your presence.

In this discussion:

• How showing up, experimenting and acknowledging your mistakes builds trust with your audience
• Why we forget how to play
• An experiment to help you recover your own sense of play
