It's a great wish to aim for

Knowing how to outshine the competition to win a dream role?

People win by being indispensable to their recruiter & interviewer customers

How I help...

𝟭. 𝗚𝗵𝗼𝘀𝘁𝘄𝗿𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 a 𝗖𝗩

In 20+ years headhunting, most applicants wrote weak CVs. Even though many were great candidates, I helped them articulate it

Working with an engaging, customer-focused structure I wordsmith the best version of a person to give them a riveting, customer-engaging presence

𝟮. 𝗥𝗼𝗹𝗲 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗲 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘀𝘂𝗹𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗰𝘆

Aiming high is great but without a plan but it's all luck & stress, unless people have a guide

LinkedIn profiles are a personal brand statement. Is a person a star, average, or easily forgetable?

Executive recruiters & interviewers always use a LinkedIn profile with a CV. So, each needs to add strong flavour to the recipe for success

My 20+ years executive recruitment experience adds depth & richness to a person's recipe that delights their customer

𝟰. 𝗣𝗿𝗲𝗽𝗮𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗜𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘃𝗶𝗲𝘄

Excellent candidates save interviewers

This is about people confidently controlling their career

𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟲 𝘄𝗼𝗻’𝘁 𝗿𝗲𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗺𝗼𝘀𝘁 𝘀𝗸𝗶𝗹𝗹𝗲𝗱 𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀. 𝗜𝘁 𝘄𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗿𝗲𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗼𝗻𝗲𝘀 𝘄𝗵𝗼𝘀𝗲 𝗽𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗺𝘂𝗻𝗶𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝗔𝘂𝘁𝗵𝗼𝗿𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗯𝗲𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗯𝗲𝗴𝗶𝗻𝘀.

When you’ve built real expertise, capability isn’t the question anymore. The opportunities you attract depend on whether your presence communicates Authority.

At a high level, the question isn’t: “𝘋𝘰 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘩𝘢𝘷𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘴𝘬𝘪𝘭𝘭𝘴?”
The market already assumes you do.

The real question is:“𝘋𝘰𝘦𝘴 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘱𝘳𝘦𝘴𝘦𝘯𝘤𝘦 𝘤𝘰𝘮𝘮𝘶𝘯𝘪𝘤𝘢𝘵𝘦 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘷𝘢𝘭𝘶𝘦 𝘪𝘯𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘯𝘵𝘭𝘺?”

For most Founders, Coaches & Expert Advisors, the answer is often: "𝘕𝘰𝘵 𝘺𝘦𝘵."

Here’s why:

• Their LinkedIn identity still reflects who they were 3–5 years ago.
• Their online presence doesn’t signal the level they actually operate at.
• Their narrative isn’t calibrated to command the rooms they want to step into next.

This creates a costly gap between 𝗰𝗮𝗽𝗮𝗯𝗶𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆 and 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗰𝗲𝗽𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻... and 𝗶𝗻 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟲, 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗰𝗲𝗽𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝘄𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗱𝗲𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗲 𝗮𝗰𝗰𝗲𝘀𝘀, 𝗶𝗻𝗳𝗹𝘂𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗼𝗽𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁𝘂𝗻𝗶𝘁𝘆.

As that misalignment remains… 

→ It costs you in visibility 

→ It costs you in leverage 

→ it costs you in next-level opportunities

I help high-level leaders build their Authority Brand that reflects their true caliber.

Not through “social media” performance or louder marketing.

But through strategic 𝗔𝘂𝘁𝗵𝗼𝗿𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗕𝗿𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗔𝗿𝗰𝗵𝗶𝘁𝗲𝗰𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲™, a leadership-focused system that strengthens:

• Your identity narrative
• The presence you project
• Your strategic positioning
• The perception you command
• The opportunities you attract

This is not personal branding.
This is not cosmetic branding.
This is your Authority Advantage.

The leaders who step into this work do so to:

✔ Elevate how the market interprets them
✔ Reposition themselves for a stronger 2026
✔ Build a LinkedIn presence worthy of their capability
✔ Create a continuous opportunity pipeline
✔ Stand out without shouting or performing

Today's Authority Traction Newsletter dives into something most coaches, consultants, and founders  know deep down but rarely talk about...

➡️ Your LinkedIn isn’t flat because of the algorithm.
➡️ It’s flat because confusion compounds faster than Authority.

You know what I mean, right? 🤔

👉 A blurred niche here…
👉 An unfocused message there…
👉 One skipped week…
👉 One forced post…
👉 One more “pivot”…

Suddenly you’re not leading the conversation... you’re reacting to it. 😲

After years working inside Fortune 500 organizations, I can tell you this with certainty: Businesses rarely collapse from 𝗕𝗜𝗚 𝗳𝗮𝗶𝗹𝘂𝗿𝗲𝘀. They collapse from 𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘁𝗹𝗲 𝗱𝗿𝗶𝗳𝘁𝘀.

And right now, I see a lot of drifting on LinkedIn without people realizing it.

So,
If you’re tired of “trying everything”…
If you’ve been feeling inconsistent…
If your message feels fuzzy…

Remember this... 𝘈𝘶𝘵𝘩𝘰𝘳𝘪𝘵𝘺 𝘤𝘰𝘮𝘱𝘰𝘶𝘯𝘥𝘴, 𝘣𝘶𝘵 𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘧𝘶𝘴𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘥𝘰𝘦𝘴 𝘵𝘰𝘰.

Let’s make sure you’re on the right side of that equation on Turkey Day. 🦃

Authority Compounds… and So Does Confusion

I don’t talk about this much but there was a moment in my business where I almost walked away from LinkedIn completely. 🤔

Not because I didn’t believe in it, but because I was tired. 😫

👉 Tired of posting thoughtful content that got polite engagement... but no real conversations.
👉 Tired of spending hours planning, writing, showing up… with no increase in clients.
👉 Tired of feeling like the algorithm was eating my brilliance for breakfast.

And the worst part? I knew I was good at what I did. The market just didn’t know it yet.

I was visible → 𝘣𝘶𝘵 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘤𝘩𝘰𝘴𝘦𝘯.I was present → 𝘣𝘶𝘵 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘱𝘳𝘦𝘧𝘦𝘳𝘳𝘦𝘥.I was Seen → 𝘣𝘶𝘵 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘴𝘰𝘶𝘨𝘩𝘵-𝘢𝘧𝘵𝘦𝘳.

The emotions were rising up:
⛓️‍💥 It felt unfair.
⛓️‍💥 It felt confusing.
⛓️‍💥 And if I’m being honest… 𝗶𝘁 𝗳𝗲𝗹𝘁 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹. I know you know what I mean.

One day I had to get bold and confront myself:
“𝘏𝘰𝘸 𝘢𝘮 𝘐 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘣𝘳𝘪𝘭𝘭𝘪𝘢𝘯𝘵 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘴𝘵𝘪𝘭𝘭 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘨𝘦𝘵𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘵𝘳𝘢𝘤𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘐 𝘬𝘯𝘰𝘸 𝘐 𝘴𝘩𝘰𝘶𝘭𝘥 𝘣𝘦 𝘨𝘦𝘵𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘨?”

Turns out, I was doing the right things… 𝙗𝙪𝙩 𝙞𝙣 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙬𝙧𝙤𝙣𝙜 𝘼𝙪𝙩𝙝𝙤𝙧𝙞𝙩𝙮 𝙋𝙝𝙖𝙨𝙚. 🙄

I thought I had a visibility problem but I actually had a phase problem.

I was trying to create Phase 3 results (𝘪𝘯𝘣𝘰𝘶𝘯𝘥 𝘭𝘦𝘢𝘥𝘴, 𝘥𝘦𝘮𝘢𝘯𝘥, 𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘴𝘪𝘴𝘵𝘦𝘯𝘤𝘺) while still operating with Phase 1 habits (𝘤𝘭𝘢𝘳𝘪𝘵𝘺, 𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘵𝘦𝘹𝘵, 𝘮𝘦𝘴𝘴𝘢𝘨𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘨𝘢𝘱𝘴).

And once I understood what Authority Phase I was actually in, I cold change the outcome..

🏆 My confidence came back.
🏆 My messaging sharpened.
🏆 My lead flow increased.

𝗔𝗻𝗱 𝗟𝗶𝗻𝗸𝗲𝗱𝗜𝗻 𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗽𝗽𝗲𝗱 𝗳𝗲𝗲𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗹𝗶𝗸𝗲 𝗮 𝗷𝗼𝗯… 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗳𝗲𝗲𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗹𝗶𝗸𝗲 𝗮 𝗿𝘂𝗻𝘄𝗮𝘆.

So tomorrow, we’re having the conversation I wish someone had with me years ago about this. Because too many brilliant coaches are working in the wrong phase and blaming themselves for the wrong things.

If you’ve been feeling stuck, overlooked, inconsistent, or confused by what “should be working but isn’t”… you’ll want to be in The Authority Lounge Experience™ room.

No alternative text description for this image

This weekend while grocery shopping with my husband, I overheard two women behind us talking about the government shutdown ending. 🛒

One said... “𝘐 𝘥𝘰𝘯’𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘬 𝘐 𝘤𝘰𝘶𝘭𝘥 𝘴𝘶𝘳𝘷𝘪𝘷𝘦 𝘢𝘯𝘰𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳 𝘰𝘯𝘦.”

Ouch! That hit me like a Mack truck. 🚛

Then I heard the other... “𝘐𝘵’𝘴 𝘴𝘤𝘢𝘳𝘺 𝘵𝘰 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘬 𝘫𝘶𝘴𝘵 𝘩𝘰𝘸 𝘤𝘭𝘰𝘴𝘦 𝘸𝘦 𝘢𝘭𝘭 𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘵𝘰 𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘺𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘧𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘢𝘱𝘢𝘳𝘵.”

That's when I stopped reaching for the PayDay candy bar and told him... “𝘚𝘩𝘦’𝘴 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘸𝘳𝘰𝘯𝘨.”

It is scary, isn't it? 😬

That shutdown didn’t just break a record, it cracked open a truth.

👉 People had to take out loans for groceries... 𝘸𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘸𝘩𝘢𝘵-𝘸𝘩𝘢𝘵?
👉 Families had to choose between rent and food... 𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘬𝘪𝘥𝘥𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘮𝘦?
👉 Folks lined up at food banks who never imagined needing one... 𝘪𝘵 𝘨𝘰𝘵 𝘳𝘶𝘨𝘨𝘦𝘥!

Even though the government reopened, the fear and anxiety still lingers because something felt and experienced like this is not easily erased.

As we were driving home, I said “𝘛𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘪𝘴 𝘸𝘩𝘺 𝘐 𝘱𝘶𝘴𝘩 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘪𝘮𝘱𝘰𝘳𝘵𝘢𝘯𝘤𝘦 𝘰𝘧 𝘣𝘶𝘪𝘭𝘥𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘢𝘯 𝘈𝘶𝘵𝘩𝘰𝘳𝘪𝘵𝘺 𝘉𝘳𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘴𝘰 𝘩𝘢𝘳𝘥.”

You see, life doesn’t warn you. Life just happens, and you either have a stability plan or you don’t.

Most people who have jumped into coaching or consulting don’t have that in place.

And honestly, when I first started out as a coach, I didn’t either. Nobody was there to actually tell me about building my Authority Brand and much less show how to do it. They were telling me a whole lot of other stuff, but not the stuff that mattered most.

I spent years posting and praying on all the "social media" platforms... Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, hoping and waiting on leads, clients and referrals like they’d fall from the sky... 𝘰𝘯𝘦 𝘴𝘭𝘰𝘸 𝘮𝘰𝘯𝘵𝘩 𝘧𝘳𝘰𝘮 𝘮𝘺 𝘰𝘸𝘯 𝘤𝘰𝘭𝘭𝘢𝘱𝘴𝘦. 😣

But thank God for a good man (pun intended 😂)

He looked at me, smiled... and said “𝘉𝘶𝘵 𝘯𝘰𝘸 𝘺𝘰𝘶’𝘷𝘦 𝘣𝘶𝘪𝘭𝘵 𝘴𝘰𝘮𝘦𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘩𝘰𝘭𝘥𝘴 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘶𝘱.”

That’s when it clicked...

Your Authority Brand isn’t a logo. 𝗜𝘁'𝘀 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗯𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝘁𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗽𝗹𝗮𝗻. It's your insurance policy that keeps your business breathing when everything else suffocates.

That’s why I built The Authority Lab™ to help coaches, consultants, and founders build their personal business protection plan as an Authority Brand on LinkedIn.

→ Not as a program, but as the stability system I wish I had when I was barely keeping my head above water.

With another possible shutdown looming in 2026… 𝗜𝘁'𝘀 𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗯𝘂𝗶𝗹𝗱 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗔𝘂𝘁𝗵𝗼𝗿𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗔𝗿𝗺𝗼𝗿! 💪

Are you kidding me. 😲

I thought I had landed a starring role in a remake of "The Grey". Instead of wolves... coyotes on the block.

Y'all, I live in Chicago. The city of snow and Al Capone, not coyotes.

Yea, the coyotes don't look too threatening in the pic.

They're just standing there... 𝘊𝘢𝘭𝘮... 𝘈𝘭𝘮𝘰𝘴𝘵… 𝘩𝘢𝘳𝘮𝘭𝘦𝘴𝘴. 😬

But danger rarely announces itself loudly, right.

It lurks and eases in quietly. Going unnoticed all too often.

Well, that just might be like your LinkedIn presence right now. 👀

You scroll, thinking everything’s fine.
You assume visibility will bounce back after the holidays... 𝘶𝘯𝘵𝘪𝘭 𝘉𝘈𝘔!

Your headline blurs, your offers fade, and your DMs stay silent. 😬

That's Authority erosion, the topic I wrote about in my Authority Traction Newsletter today. 📰

You see, when you're trying to build your Authority Brand, you don’t just wake up one day with:

📉 Zero leads
📉 Zero profile views
📉 Zero engagement
📉 Zero discovery calls

That happens slowly, with...

👉 A weak banner here.
👉 A confusing headline there.
👉 A message that blends in.

𝘕𝘰𝘵 𝘵𝘰 𝘮𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘪𝘯𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘴𝘪𝘴𝘵𝘦𝘯𝘵 𝘷𝘪𝘴𝘪𝘣𝘪𝘭𝘪𝘵𝘺 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘯𝘰 𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘭 𝘴𝘺𝘴𝘵𝘦𝘮. 🙄

Before you know it… your LinkedIn presence is in danger and your Authority eroded. 😬

This year, I’ve reviewed hundreds of profiles, and the pattern is always the same.

Coaches and consultants assuming:

❌ Visibility will pick back up soon.
❌ Leads flow will be better next year.
❌ They’ll fix their profile “after the holidays.”

But Authority doesn’t vanish overnight. It just erodes when we're not paying attention.

Quietly. Steadily. Sometimes… 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗺𝗮𝗻𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗹𝘆.

Here’s the twist: just like those coyotes circling back at night... Authority threats circle back. They don’t vanish.

That’s why the Authority Lab™ is here for 2026.

What we do in the Lab, isn’t built on hustle. It’s built on 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝘁𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 + 𝗽𝗼𝘀𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 + 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗰𝗹𝗮𝗿𝗶𝘁𝘆.

Your Black Friday opportunity drops this week. Only time to lock in 2026 Black Card Access™.

Comment 𝗔𝗟𝗘𝗥𝗧 and I’ll send the early details.

Helping Introverted Coaches & Founders Build a Visible, Premium Authority Brand — So YOU Stand Out Confidently, Attract High-Value Clients & Grow Without Losing Your Identity | Speaker | Bank Your Brilliance™

Too many coaches live on borrowed oxygen. One flick of the LinkedIn algorithm and BOOM... 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗶𝗿 𝗽𝗶𝗽𝗲𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗲 𝗳𝗹𝗮𝘁-𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗲𝘀. 😯

(𝘉𝘦𝘦𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦, 𝘣𝘶𝘵 𝘯𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳 𝘢𝘨𝘢𝘪𝘯. 🙌)

A while back, I made a decision: 𝗯𝘂𝗶𝗹𝗱 𝗺𝘆 𝗼𝘄𝗻 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗲𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗼𝗺𝘆 𝗶𝗻𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗮𝗱.

→ 𝗧𝗿𝗮𝗻𝘀𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: 𝘢𝘯 𝘈𝘶𝘵𝘩𝘰𝘳𝘪𝘵𝘺 𝘉𝘳𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘴𝘰 𝘵𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘢𝘭𝘨𝘰𝘳𝘪𝘵𝘩𝘮 𝘤𝘢𝘯 𝘸𝘰𝘣𝘣𝘭𝘦 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘐 𝘴𝘵𝘪𝘭𝘭 𝘣𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘦𝘢𝘴𝘺. 😊

Basically, there are two ways to operate here:

1️⃣ 𝗔𝗹𝗴𝗼𝗿𝗶𝘁𝗵𝗺 𝗧𝗲𝗻𝗮𝗻𝘁 → You copy, chase reach, and ride every hack-du-jour. Every update feels like Russian roulette with your revenue.

2️⃣ 𝗔𝘂𝘁𝗵𝗼𝗿𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗟𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗹𝗼𝗿𝗱 → You own a fortress of proof, positioning, and Authority presence. The algorithms may visit, but they don’t control the rent.

The problem? Over 87% of you act like Tenants but expect Landlord results. 😏

Here's the antidote ⚗️

Remember that:
✅ Platforms shift, but Authority compounds.
✅ Likes don’t pay invoices; conversations do.
✅ Visibility without positioning just fuels the scroll.
✅ LinkedIn insurance isn’t a policy; it’s an Authority Brand that outlives the feed.

My personal playbook (𝘴𝘵𝘦𝘢𝘭 𝘪𝘵, 𝘱𝘭𝘦𝘢𝘴𝘦):

The Authority Brand Formula™ ↔ B + O + C × (Ex3) ÷ T

𝗕𝗿𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 → Say why you’re the pick, not a pick.
𝗢𝗽𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗶𝘇𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 → Turn your profile into a “Book a Call” funnel, not a résumé.
𝗖𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗻𝘁 → Educate, agitate, validate.
𝗘𝗻𝗴𝗮𝗴𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 → Comments, Connections, Conversations.
𝗧𝗶𝗺𝗲 → Compress all this until consistency becomes your default.

Run the formula for 90 days and see results like:

👉 Profile views increase by 210% (targeted prospects)
👉 Inbound connection requests grow by 167%
👉 Steady flow of premium leads

Will an update throttle your impressions? 𝘔𝘢𝘺𝘣𝘦.
Will it topple a brand anchored in Authority? 𝘕𝘰𝘵 𝘢 𝘤𝘩𝘢𝘯𝘤𝘦.

Bottom line... Stop refreshing the feed... ➡️ Start banking your brilliance.

Your own personal economy is now in you hands. 💛

Most people try to solve visibility by:

→ Posting more content.
→ Putting in more effort.
→ Making more noise.

While your effort climbs, your Authority stalls.

But the real problem I see in founders and expert advisors right now is quieter than that and harder to spot.

𝗜𝗧'𝗦 𝗠𝗜𝗦𝗔𝗟𝗜𝗚𝗡𝗠𝗘𝗡𝗧.

Not because you lack experience and not because you’re behind.

But because there’s some unclear messaging which is part of the misalignment holding back your Authority.

A disconnect because the market has shifted — 𝘣𝘶𝘵 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘓𝘪𝘯𝘬𝘦𝘥𝘐𝘯 𝘱𝘳𝘦𝘴𝘦𝘯𝘤𝘦 𝘩𝘢𝘴𝘯’𝘵 𝘤𝘢𝘶𝘨𝘩𝘵 𝘶𝘱.

When your LinkedIn presence is even one step behind who you are now:

✓ Initial impressions sell you short.
✓ You attract misaligned conversations
✓ You miss premium opportunities without knowing why

This is the Authority Gap™ — 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘴𝘱𝘢𝘤𝘦 𝘣𝘦𝘵𝘸𝘦𝘦𝘯 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘭 𝘷𝘢𝘭𝘶𝘦 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘩𝘰𝘸 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘮𝘢𝘳𝘬𝘦𝘵 𝘪𝘯𝘵𝘦𝘳𝘱𝘳𝘦𝘵𝘴 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘢𝘵 𝘧𝘪𝘳𝘴𝘵 𝘨𝘭𝘢𝘯𝘤𝘦.

It’s not just about what you do. 𝗜𝘁’𝘀 𝗵𝗼𝘄 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘀𝗵𝗼𝘄 𝘂𝗽.

When your profile, messaging, and positioning lag behind your true capability, people judge too quickly often at junior levels or for problems you no longer solve.

The result?

→ Conversations start off one step behind.
→ Trust and leverage quietly slip away.
→ Deals stall before they begin.

Check the signs:

If you feel underestimated...
If conversations open three steps below your skill set...
If your headline and content show the work you did, not the work you run today...

→ 𝗖𝗹𝗼𝘀𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗴𝗮𝗽.

Clarify your positioning.
Show up at the level you operate at now.
Align your messaging with a new level of Authority.

Message me to get started. 💛

The Oscars are leaving ABC and moving to YouTube.

This isn’t just a platform change... 𝗶𝘁’𝘀 𝗮 𝘀𝗲𝗶𝘀𝗺𝗶𝗰 𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗳𝘁.

For decades, the Oscars didn’t need to prove their Authority.

✓ ABC was the default broadcaster.
✓ Linear TV was the primary channel.
✓ Prestige flowed in one direction.

But the audience that made the Oscars culturally dominant no longer watches there.

Right now, the question isn’t whether YouTube is better than ABC. It’s about 𝘄𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝗔𝘂𝘁𝗵𝗼𝗿𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗹𝗶𝘃𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗼𝗱𝗮𝘆.

The Oscars didn’t “rebrand” or “post more content.”
They moved before the gap became fatal.
They relocated their Authority to where decisions happen fast and with impact.

When it does, anyone clinging to the old model pays a heavy price:

→ Less relevance
→ Smaller audiences
→ Slower momentum
→ Fewer opportunities downstream

This is exactly what’s happening now to expert advisors and fractional leaders.

Your credibility hasn’t dropped.
Your Authority context has shifted.

I thought the 𝗠𝗮𝗰𝘆’𝘀 𝗧𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗸𝘀𝗴𝗶𝘃𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗗𝗮𝘆 𝗣𝗮𝗿𝗮𝗱𝗲 was going to be magical… 🤩

Instead, it felt like an episode of Survivor. 🤺

Years ago, my sister and I took a road trip from California and drove cross-country to spend Thanksgiving with friends on the East Coast.

And we thought… why not go to the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade while we’re here?

Sounds dreamy, right? 🥰

Nope.

It was icy cold. 🥶

It was packed shoulder to shoulder. 😧

People were pushing, shoving, elbowing for a better view. 🫣

Kids were screaming. 😩

Adults were screaming. 😬

At one point it felt like a cat fight with snowballs disguised as confetti. 😲

I lasted maybe at most 20 minutes before ducking into a McDonald’s to defrost with a cup of hot cocoa... ☕
𝘸𝘩𝘪𝘤𝘩, 𝘩𝘰𝘯𝘦𝘴𝘵𝘭𝘺, 𝘸𝘢𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘣𝘦𝘴𝘵 𝘱𝘢𝘳𝘵. 😂

But here’s the funny thing about that experience…

For years, that parade reminded me of the chaos we get sucked into with all the “holiday hype.” 😏

🛑 Everyone is pushing.
🛑 Everyone is rushing.
🛑 Everyone is fighting for something they don’t actually want. 🙄

And the stuff that truly matters gets lost somewhere in all that noise and chaos.

But...

There is always an upside in those moments, 𝘭𝘪𝘬𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘤𝘶𝘱 𝘰𝘧 𝘩𝘰𝘵 𝘤𝘰𝘤𝘰𝘢. ☺️

Like...
🧡 The warmth.
🧡 The simplicity.
🧡 The clarity.

Those are the moments that ground you and you have to take them when you can and however way you can, even if it's just a cup of hot cocoa. 😋

That’s what Thanksgiving actually is for me now. 🦃

So in the spirit of the season this year...

Instead of adding to the noise I’m giving you the exact opposite of a chaotic, pushy Black Friday moment.

⚠️ No rushing.
⚠️ No shoving.
⚠️ No screaming.
⚠️ No “50% OFF (but not really stuff).”

If 2026 need that type of space and structure, and not another crowded parade of modules and videos, comment BLACK CARD and I’ll send the details way.

And...

At this point, your ideal future clients see noise, 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘈𝘶𝘵𝘩𝘰𝘳𝘪𝘵𝘺.
But here's some good news.

Your Authority Brand can evolve as quickly as your expertise elevates.

But not with more colors, carousels, or TikTok grade video performances.

It requires 𝗮𝗿𝗰𝗵𝗶𝘁𝗲𝗰𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲:

✓ Commercial relevance
✓ Strategic positioning
✓ Compelling narrative
✓ Consistent visibility
✓ Authentic identity

All built into a system that works.

When these align, your LinkedIn presence finally matches the real caliber of your capability.

On Friday, December 19th, we're digging into the conversation during the Authority Lounge Experience™.

You see, I was recently featured in LinkedIn News, and one section of their report instantly clarified what’s really happening in the market right now:

Why? Because...

The entrepreneur economy: Why small business is becoming a top career move

Here's a quiet truth I’ve learned about LinkedIn... 𝗦𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗺𝗼𝘀𝘁 𝗰𝗮𝗽𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲, 𝘁𝗵𝗼𝘂𝗴𝗵𝘁𝗳𝘂𝗹, 𝗵𝗶𝗴𝗵-𝗹𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗹 𝗽𝗲𝗼𝗽𝗹𝗲 𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝗮𝗹𝗺𝗼𝘀𝘁 𝗻𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁.

→ They read.
→ They reflect.
→ They save posts.
→ They watch silently.
→ And they only reach out when something truly lands.

If that’s you, then I want to speak to you for a moment.

From my vantage point, you’re not being quiet because you lack expertise. You’re quiet because:

• You lead with depth, not noise
• You don’t want to perform to be seen
• You value clarity over constant content
• You’re intentional about how you show up

But here’s the tension I see in so many coaches, consultants, and founders who operate this way...

• The shift from personal branding to Authority Branding
• The hidden cost of operating with an outdated online identity
• Why 2026 will reward those with engineered Authority versus activity
• How high-level professionals can recalibrate their presence for the rooms they want next

Paramount’s hostile bid to snatch Warner Bros out of Netflix’s hands isn’t just media drama... it’s a global masterclass in 𝗽𝗼𝘄𝗲𝗿, 𝗽𝗼𝘀𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴, and 𝗽𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲.

What we're seeing play out here isn’t entertainment. It’s a live demonstration of 𝘈𝘶𝘵𝘩𝘰𝘳𝘪𝘵𝘺 𝘈𝘳𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘵𝘦𝘤𝘵𝘶𝘳𝘦 𝘪𝘯 𝘮𝘰𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 and at the highest level.

Because here’s the subtle nuances as play:
→ When giants fight, 𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗴𝗼𝗿𝗶𝗲𝘀 𝗰𝗼𝗹𝗹𝗮𝗽𝘀𝗲.
→ When titans battle for power, 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗲𝗹𝘀𝗲 𝗴𝗲𝘁𝘀 𝗿𝗲𝗱𝗲𝗳𝗶𝗻𝗲𝗱.
→ When power players move, 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝘁𝗿𝘂𝗰𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲𝘀 𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿𝗻𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗵 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗺 𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗳𝘁.
→ When narratives clash, 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗺𝗮𝗿𝗸𝗲𝘁 𝗿𝗲𝗲𝘃𝗮𝗹𝘂𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝘄𝗵𝗼 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗹 𝗔𝘂𝘁𝗵𝗼𝗿𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗶𝘀.

Paramount and Netflix aren’t fighting over movies.

They’re fighting over 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗿𝗼𝗹 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘃𝗶𝘀𝗶𝗯𝗶𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝘀𝘆𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗺 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘀𝗵𝗮𝗽𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗳𝘂𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲.

Distribution → 𝘸𝘩𝘰 𝘨𝘦𝘵𝘴 𝘴𝘦𝘦𝘯
Narrative → 𝘸𝘩𝘰 𝘨𝘦𝘵𝘴 𝘣𝘦𝘭𝘪𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘥
Influence → 𝘸𝘩𝘰 𝘨𝘦𝘵𝘴 𝘵𝘳𝘶𝘴𝘵𝘦𝘥
Perception → 𝘸𝘩𝘰 𝘨𝘦𝘵𝘴 𝘤𝘩𝘰𝘴𝘦𝘯

Executives, founders, CEOs/CMOs, consultants & coaches... here’s where this hits home for you:

👉 When power consolidates, the market becomes ruthless.
👉 Those without a fortified presence get absorbed or ignored.
👉 Those with structural Authority rise faster than anyone predicts.

This is exactly what you'll see happening on LinkedIn heading into 2026.

You’re not competing against peers anymore. 𝗬𝗼𝘂’𝗿𝗲 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗲𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗮𝗴𝗮𝗶𝗻𝘀𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗼𝘀𝗲 𝘄𝗵𝗼𝘀𝗲 𝗔𝘂𝘁𝗵𝗼𝗿𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗽𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗶𝘀 𝗮𝗿𝗰𝗵𝗶𝘁𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻.

Your capability is NOT the variable.
Your signal is.
Your narrative is.
Your visibility system is.

Paramount didn’t attack because they needed attention. 𝗧𝗵𝗲𝘆 𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗮𝗰𝗸𝗲𝗱 𝗯𝗲𝗰𝗮𝘂𝘀𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝘆 𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗼𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗽𝗼𝘄𝗲𝗿 𝗼𝗳 𝗯𝗲𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝘄𝗵𝗼 𝗱𝗲𝗳𝗶𝗻𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗴𝗼𝗿𝘆.
And that’s the real lesson.

You see, Authority isn’t earned. 𝗔𝘂𝘁𝗵𝗼𝗿𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗶𝘀 𝗲𝗻𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗱. 
𝘘𝘶𝘪𝘦𝘵𝘭𝘺. 𝘚𝘵𝘳𝘢𝘵𝘦𝘨𝘪𝘤𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘺. 𝘈𝘳𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘵𝘦𝘤𝘵𝘶𝘳𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘺.

In 2026, the leaders who win will be the ones who:
✔ Control their narrative
✔ Shape their own visibility
✔ Build a presence that commands respect
✔ Stop waiting for the room to choose them
✔ Fortify their Authority before the market shifts

And let's be real... in times of power wars, undefended brands get erased. Architected ones rise.

Hmmm. I think my next post will have a Game of Thrones theme. I'm feeling that, how about you?

P.S. If you want to see how your Authority Brand can be architected to elevate you in this new "Authority" era… shoot me a DM with the word 𝗔𝗥𝗖𝗛𝗜𝗧𝗘𝗖𝗧𝗨𝗥𝗘 and I’ll send you access to my private briefing. 💛

Okay so… last night I went to a masquerade birthday party for someone very dear to me, and LISTEN... your girl had fun. 💃🏽

The moment my friend called and invited me, I told her “𝘐’𝘭𝘭 𝘣𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦 𝘯𝘰 𝘮𝘢𝘵𝘵𝘦𝘳 𝘸𝘩𝘢𝘵.”

That’s commitment. And because of that commitment, I got to experience pure joy, old friends reuniting, new friendships started, gratitude, and life happening in real time. 😍

But I want you to get this one thing… none of it would’ve happened if I hadn’t made the commitment first. 🤔

There is power in making a commitment because:
👉 Commitment creates unforgettable moments.
👉 Commitment creates real relationships.
👉 Commitment creates lasting results.

But it also reminded me of something important.. you cannot get the full experience of anything without giving full commitment. 

𝘞𝘩𝘦𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳 𝘪𝘯 𝘣𝘶𝘴𝘪𝘯𝘦𝘴𝘴, 𝘭𝘪𝘧𝘦, 𝘰𝘳 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘓𝘪𝘯𝘬𝘦𝘥𝘐𝘯 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘯𝘦𝘦𝘥 𝘤𝘰𝘮𝘮𝘪𝘵𝘮𝘦𝘯𝘵.

I committed to being there and because of that simple commitment, I experienced joy, connection, reconnection, and growth.

Everything good that happened was downstream of the commitment... “𝘐’𝘮 𝘪𝘯.”

Building your Authority Brand takes that type of commitment... “𝘐’𝘮 𝘪𝘯.”

𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗺𝗶𝘁𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 → 𝗖𝗹𝗮𝗿𝗶𝘁𝘆 → 𝗔𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 → 𝗔𝘂𝘁𝗵𝗼𝗿𝗶𝘁𝘆.

Because at some point, your future has to stop waiting for permission… and start changing with commitment. 💛

---------------------------
P.S. If you’re feeling that nudge like the one I felt when I said “𝘐’𝘮 𝘪𝘯” then maybe this is your moment too. 𝗕𝗹𝗮𝗰𝗸 𝗖𝗮𝗿𝗱 𝗔𝗰𝗰𝗲𝘀𝘀™ into the Authority Lab™ is open, but only for the ones who are ready to commit to a different 2026 on LinkedIn.

If you know you’re ready to step out of hiding and into your Authority on LinkedIn... this is my personal invitation to you. Check out the link in the first comment. And then 𝗗𝗠 𝗜'𝗠 𝗜𝗡 when you've made the commitment. 💛

If LinkedIn has felt a little “off” lately, you’re not imagining it. 🙄

After the noise of Thanksgiving → Black Friday → Cyber Monday…

A lot of brilliant coaches and consultants are quietly asking themselves:

“𝘞𝘩𝘺 𝘥𝘰𝘦𝘴 𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘺𝘰𝘯𝘦 𝘢𝘳𝘰𝘶𝘯𝘥 𝘮𝘦 𝘴𝘦𝘦𝘮 𝘵𝘰 𝘣𝘦 𝘨𝘳𝘰𝘸𝘪𝘯𝘨, 𝘸𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘦 𝘮𝘺 𝘮𝘰𝘮𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘶𝘮 𝘧𝘦𝘦𝘭𝘴 𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘦𝘥?”

Great question. 🤔

Here’s the real reason... and it’s not the algorithm:
➡️ Observation creates inspiration.
➡️ Proximity creates results.

And most experts stay stuck in observation mode far longer than they realize.

✅ Watching the wins.
✅ Saving frameworks.
✅ Collecting inspiration.
✅ Studying the testimonials.
✅ Trying to reverse-engineer what they see…

…but never stepping inside the environment that actually produced those results. 😮

This week’s Authority Traction™ Newsletter goes deep into this divide and why 2026 will reward the those experts who step into proximity, not the one who hustles harder from the sidelines.

If you’ve been feeling “almost there,” “circling the same goal,” or “watching others pass you,” this one will hit home.

“𝘈𝘮 𝘐 𝘰𝘣𝘴𝘦𝘳𝘷𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘰𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳 𝘱𝘦𝘰𝘱𝘭𝘦’𝘴 𝘳𝘦𝘴𝘶𝘭𝘵𝘴 𝘰𝘳 𝘢𝘮 𝘐 𝘧𝘪𝘯𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘺 𝘴𝘵𝘦𝘱𝘱𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘪𝘯𝘵𝘰 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘳𝘰𝘰𝘮 𝘸𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦 𝘮𝘪𝘯𝘦 𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘤𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘵𝘦𝘥?”

Observation Won’t Build Your Authority. Proximity Will.

In the Game of Thrones, the quiet houses always fall first. ⚔️

Yesterday, I posted about two giants — 𝙋𝙖𝙧𝙖𝙢𝙤𝙪𝙣𝙩 vs 𝙉𝙚𝙩𝙛𝙡𝙞𝙭 — and how power battles can redefine an entire kingdom.

But the deeper truth for every leader who’s watched closely...

𝗤𝘂𝗶𝗲𝘁 𝗵𝗼𝘂𝘀𝗲𝘀 𝗱𝗼𝗻’𝘁 𝗳𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝗹𝗮𝗰𝗸 𝗼𝗳 𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗲𝗻𝗴𝘁𝗵. T𝗵𝗲𝘆 𝗳𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝗯𝗲𝗰𝗮𝘂𝘀𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝘆 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝘆 𝘂𝗻𝗳𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗶𝗳𝗶𝗲𝗱 𝘄𝗵𝗶𝗹𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗹𝗱 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗲𝘀 𝗮𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗺.

That’s exactly what’s happening on LinkedIn right now.

While Paramount and Netflix clash publicly, the real lesson is about those watching silently, hoping the storm passes them by.

Here’s what makes people squirm: 𝗣𝗼𝘄𝗲𝗿 𝘀𝘁𝗿𝘂𝗴𝗴𝗹𝗲𝘀 𝗱𝗼𝗻’𝘁 𝗯𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗸 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗼𝗻𝗴 — 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝘆 𝘀𝗶𝗺𝗽𝗹𝘆 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗼𝘀𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘂𝗻𝗽𝗿𝗲𝗽𝗮𝗿𝗲𝗱.

In Westeros, the houses that survived were the ones who:

⚔️ Fortified their walls
⚔️ Clarified their alliances
⚔️ Strengthened their position
⚔️ Made their presence undeniable

Not the ones who “𝘸𝘢𝘪𝘵𝘦𝘥 𝘵𝘰 𝘴𝘦𝘦 𝘸𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘩𝘢𝘱𝘱𝘦𝘯𝘴.”

LinkedIn in 2026 will be no different. 

Too many founders, coaches, consultants, and CEOs still act like:

→ Leaders without clear signals  
→ Kingdoms with no clear claims  
→ Respected houses with no banners  
→ Profiles without reinforced presence

When disruption hits — 𝘸𝘩𝘦𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳 𝘈𝘐 𝘴𝘩𝘪𝘧𝘵𝘴, 𝘪𝘯𝘤𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘴𝘦𝘥 𝘤𝘰𝘮𝘱𝘦𝘵𝘪𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯, 𝘰𝘳 𝘢 𝘧𝘭𝘰𝘰𝘥 𝘰𝘧 𝘯𝘦𝘸 𝘷𝘰𝘪𝘤𝘦𝘴 𝘰𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘱𝘭𝘢𝘵𝘧𝘰𝘳𝘮 — undefended brands disappear first.

So here's  the takeaway: This isn’t about posting more.  
It’s about 𝗳𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗶𝗳𝘆𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗯𝗿𝗮𝗻𝗱 — not as a personal brand, but as an 𝗔𝘂𝘁𝗵𝗼𝗿𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗕𝗿𝗮𝗻𝗱.

Where:  
- Your walls = 𝗽𝗼𝘀𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴  
- Your banners = 𝗻𝗮𝗿𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲  
- Your alliances = 𝘃𝗶𝘀𝗶𝗯𝗶𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝘀𝘆𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗺  
- Your claim = 𝗔𝘂𝘁𝗵𝗼𝗿𝗶𝘁𝘆

Not louder.  
Not flashier.  
Not performance-driven.

But...  

Clearer.  
Stronger.
Engineered.

Most people think building an Authority Brand means becoming an online performer.

In 2026, the opposite will be true.

The buyers who are looking for depth, clarity, trust, and real expertise aren’t drawn to noise.

They’re drawn to intentional professionals who know who they are — 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘴𝘩𝘰𝘸 𝘪𝘵 𝘤𝘭𝘦𝘢𝘳𝘭𝘺.

That’s the focus of the next 𝗔𝘂𝘁𝗵𝗼𝗿𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗟𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗴𝗲 𝗘𝘅𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 on December 5:

We’ll explore:
• What actually builds Authority for introverted or depth-driven experts
• Why “consistent posting” is not the same as visibility
• The elements of a premium, intentional presence
• A live clarity moment for attendees who want it

Well, it's the first day of the last month of 2025, and so I wanted to share something I don’t talk about often, but... 😏

There was a season where I kept disappearing on LinkedIn. 👻

⛔ Not because I didn’t care.
⛔ Not because I didn’t believe in myself.

But because I didn’t have a rhythm that anchored me in doing what it took to make LinkedIn work.

I’d post… disappear… restart… disappear again. That was my repeating cycle. 

So not good for generating leads or building a pipeline. 🙄

And every time I returned, I felt a bit left behind and getting traction again was a bear. 

It was like I was starting from scratch over and over again, while other people seemed to be operating in their stride.

At some point I had to bite the bullet on this LinkedIn game, so I built something for myself that I realized every coach, consultant, and founder needs ⤵️
✨ A weekly plan
✨ A weekly visibility target
✨ A weekly content direction
✨ A weekly accountability moment
✨ A weekly “do THIS this week” focus
✨ A weekly system that won’t let you drift

That system became 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗔𝘂𝘁𝗵𝗼𝗿𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗟𝗮𝗯™ — the only structure I’ve ever seen that gives people a predictable Authority rhythm. 🙌

And here's the cool news... Today — 𝗖𝘆𝗯𝗲𝗿 𝗠𝗼𝗻𝗱𝗮𝘆 — is the ONLY day you can lock in the 2026 rate with a fully credited deposit of just $100. 

Shocking, right. 😮

Yeah, I know. 😂

So, if you want 2026 to be the year you stop disappearing, stop guessing, and finally build an Authority Brand that can show up and stand out on LinkedIn, then drop a “LAB” in the comments and I’ll send you everything.

Or because you are someone who has a need for speed, just check the first comment. 

Bottom line... Your brilliance deserves a system. Not a scramble.

Happy Cyber Monday - Chareen 💛
