Visibility is often treated like a strategy

Here’s something to reflect on—the difference between being seen and simply being visible.

In most industries, visibility is often treated like a strategy:

• Like a few posts on LinkedIn

• Show up to the networking event

• Smile, shake hands, move on to the next

But if you’re anything like me, that kind of “connection” leaves you feeling even more isolated than before.

Real connection isn’t just about being noticed—it’s about being known. It’s about having a place where you don’t have to prove yourself, where you don’t have to explain why work-life harmony matters, where your ambition and your exhaustion are both understood.

That’s why I believe so deeply in the power of like-hearted community.
Not just like-minded—like-hearted. People who lead with empathy. Who crave meaning and alignment, not just metrics. Who want to rewrite the rules—not just survive by them.

If you’ve been doing all the right things to “network” and still feel alone… you’re not broken. The model is. And you deserve more.
