Fear of Visibility: How Unhealed Trauma Holds You Back Unhealed trauma casts a shadow over every aspect of our lives, including our careers. In this episode, we delve into the intricate ways trauma manifests, particularly focusing on the fear of being seen and visible. As someone immersed in the world of working with corporate executives, CEOs, and high performers looking to further their careers, I've witnessed firsthand how trauma drains and stifles progress. Many fail to connect the dots between past traumas and career setbacks. We explore the roots of this fear and how these experiences shape subconscious beliefs and survival strategies, dictating behavior and limiting growth opportunities. By acknowledging and addressing the underlying trauma, we can break free from these patterns. Join us as we uncover strategies for healing, empowerment, and reclaiming our visibility.

We'll explore what narcissism is, how it manifests itself in healthy and unhealthy ways through relationships, and why it's important for you to know the difference.

We'll explore the specifics of narcissism diagnosis—what it is, and isn't, and how to tell the difference between healthy and pathological narcissism. We'll also go over some of the key differences between grandiosity and shame in terms of how they affect the individual's ability to relate properly with others. Finally, we'll look at why narcissists are who they are due to childhood experiences—and how this makes them so difficult to deal with in adulthood.
