Sharing your ideas with the world is risky. People might judge you and what you have to say. On the other hand, not sharing your ideas can be even riskier. Think about it, your unique perspective and creative ideas around your area of expertise are needed by so many people. That's why in this episode, I am exploring the second step to an uncommon practice which involves stepping into your role as a thought leader.

I'll share the three sticking points that my clients experience when they start to think of themselves as a thought leader. You'll find out why you have to be willing to show up imperfectly and how sharing your expertise will improve not only your marketing but also your clinical work. Being a thought leader will give you a stronger stance and more well-informed ideas. Take a listen, get excited about sharing your ideas on a larger stage and then get out there and start doing it!
