In this episode I am talking to my hiders, the ones who are hiding in plain sight and telling themselves a story that it is working for them, or that it is too scary to change. I love this quote, “There is an old saying: If you want to hide the treasure, put it in plain sight. Then no one will see it.” ~ Larry Dossey. What if this is exactly what you are doing as a human? You are not wanting to be seen, heard, fly under the radar, maybe that was what was safe for you to do as a child, a trauma response.

In today’s episode we discuss:

1) This might be the case in that you are hiding in plain sight, you are showing up, doing all the things, thinking you are doing what you need to do to be seen, to move yourself or your business forward, yet you know deep down you’re hiding. Hiding in plain sight might be disconnecting yourself from yourself, from not being honest with yourself, not telling yourself the truth, and these actions are blocking you from being seen.

2) Shrinking, hiding, playing small, think back to being asked a question in school, on a zoom, and you want to ask but it is easier to shrink down in your seat and pretend that all is fine. This is closely tied to your self-worth because “you don’t soar to the level of your hopes and dreams in life, you will always plateau to the level of your self-worth. And how you see and value yourself is an indicator of how you will allow yourself to be seen.

3) It is not just a confidence thing, since confidence is a verb, an action step and it is a way to help build belief in yourself. Hiding is serving something for you, or else you wouldn’t keep doing it. Get curious, ask yourself, your subconscious mind questions, and be ready for some answer. Questions like, “when did you decide that?”, “wouldn’t it be cool if _____”
