S1 E4 · Practice Guide
The Visibility Pivot
Free companion workbook · The LinkedIn Anxiety Spiral
LinkedIn has become a stage where leaders perform a version of themselves they think the audience wants — and the anxiety of maintaining that performance quietly drains the energy they need for the actual work. This guide is the companion to S1 E4 of Brave Proximity, where Marissa Green and Susan Page unpack the visibility trap and offer a different model: one that prioritises real alliances over follower counts.
