EP 050 | Escape from Perfection Island: Why Experts Stay Invisible

Are you an expert with decades of knowledge who struggles to create content while watching less experienced people outpace you online?  Welcome to Perfection Island, that crowded, isolated place where overthinking keeps brilliant minds hidden. In this milestone 50th episode, Kendra reveals the hidden paradox: how the very expertise you've worked so hard to develop might be the thing keeping you from being seen. You'll discover what's really happening when you tell yourself 'I need to figure it all out first' and why this mental trap is prevalent among seasoned professionals over 40. If you've been postponing visibility until everything feels perfect, this episode offers both the wake-up call and the escape route you need. Because your wisdom deserves to be shared, even if it's not perfect yet. Stop waiting until you feel ready. You won't. Start anyway. Show Notes EPISODE SNAPSHOT:  In this milestone 50th episode, Kendra explores "Perfection Island" - that place where experts get trapped overthinking and over-preparing instead of sharing their valuable knowledge.  Discover why your expertise might be the very thing keeping you invisible and learn practical strategies to finally escape the perfection trap. GOLDEN NUGGETS:  • Your audience doesn't need your complete knowledge. They need your next step. • The naivety of beginners is actually their superpower when it comes to visibility.  • Your peers aren't your audience. They're not paying your bills. • The ultimate reputation risk isn't being imperfect - it's being invisible. • Clarity comes from action, not contemplation.  • Your imperfect action today beats your perfect inaction tomorrow.
