Do you secretly hate marketing — or feel completely frozen when it comes to putting yourself out there? You’re not alone. For many solo business owners, marketing feels awkward, overwhelming, or downright terrifying. But here’s the truth: there’s no one “right” way to do it, and you can find an approach that actually fits you and your business.
In this episode, I break down where the fear of marketing really comes from (fear of judgement, cultural baggage, or just not knowing what to say), and why avoiding it keeps you stuck. We’ll look at the different forms marketing can take — from content to connections to visibility and systems — and how to match them to your energy and strengths.
You’ll also hear how reframing marketing as an act of service can change everything. Because you’re not begging for attention or being pushy — you’re helping the right people realise you’re the right person to help them.
✨ Marketing doesn’t have to feel horrible. You can find a way that feels natural, simple, and sustainable — and it’s more than enough.
