So often we have a desire to be visible. But there’s also a distinct lack of transparency in the visibility industry, whether you’re an influencer, a photographer, a model, a speaker, even musicians and actors.

It’s really challenging to figure out what other people charge. And what you should, could, or can charge to collaborate with a brand or appear as a speaker.

Evolve Benton joins India and Erica for a discussion on the speaking industry, how to diversify speaking, and using publicity and speaking as means of financial freedom.

In this discussion:

  • Why you need to speak in, as well as out with your goals and affirmations
  • Why professional communities need to allow us to be our whole selves
  • How to set pricing that honors your capacity, needs, and the value you bring
  • Why asking for more is about more than just you

In this discussion:

  • What Erica and India wish they had done sooner
  • How fear of failure and self-trust have impacted their decisions
  • Why curiosity and willingness to experiment are essential to doing things differently

Many of us have experienced a breach of consent.

Kelly Diels joins India to discuss integrating consent into your business, how the concept of refreshing consent has evolved the way she shows up online, and common mistakes and misconceptions around creating a culture of consent in your marketing.

The decision to show up and be visible requires courage.

And often we get support from professionals like makeup artists, hairstylist, consultants, wardrobe stylists, and photographers in crafting how our public image is going to be witnessed and perceived.

But when we talk about visibility, we don't always think about the people behind the camera.

Photographer Shannon Collins joins India for a conversation about making the decision to get out from behind the camera, using their platform to address what matters, and how that has changed their life, their business and the lives of those around them.

In this discussion:

  • The photography industry’s issues with marginalized groups, past and present
  • How power shows up in photography, and who has an opportunity to tell their stories
  • Why capturing joy is an act of rebellion and resistance
  • How Shannon mixes visibility and vulnerability with their business

If content is king, what is that leaving on the table?

We are living in a world where we’re told that we need to produce more and more to be witnessed, but the myth of more often comes at the expense of the quality and purpose of our content. What if we communicated for impact and transformation rather than just feeding the algorithm?

Tara McMullin joins India to discuss the evolution of her content, her business, and how distancing herself from the myth of more has impacted her work and creativity.

In this discussion:

  • How the process of filtering ourselves through content marketing impacts our sense of self
  • Why shifting your mindset about credibility from income to impact supports your integrity
  • How unhooking your self-worth from how you make money can open you up to opportunities and experiences
  • Why we need to build awareness of the stories behind our goals, values, and vision

What would it mean to have a business that feels as good to you as it appears on the outside?
