The Energetics of Visibility: Why You’re Not Showing Up Online (and How to Shift It)

by Anne Clark | Oct 29, 2025 | Business, CEO, Spiritual Entrepreneurs, Spirituality

You know you should be showing up more online.
You have the skills, the story, the expertise, and the heart.
Yet every time you go to post, record, or promote your work, something holds you back.

It might sound like “I don’t have time,” “I’m not ready,” or “I’ll start when things slow down.”
But beneath those excuses sits something deeper — an energetic block around being seen.

Why visibility feels scary

Being visible isn’t just about marketing strategy.
It’s about vulnerability.

When you put yourself out there, you’re not just sharing information. You’re allowing people to see you — your energy, your voice, and your essence. For many spiritual entrepreneurs and heart-led business owners, that level of exposure can feel unsafe.

You may have past experiences where being seen or speaking your truth led to rejection, judgment, or criticism.
Your nervous system remembers that, so it protects you by keeping you “busy” with behind-the-scenes work instead of showing up where your audience can actually find you.

That’s the energetic root of invisibility — a subconscious pattern trying to keep you safe.

Common energetic blocks around visibility

Fear of judgment
You worry what others will think, or that people from your past will see you online and roll their eyes.
Fear of success
Visibility brings attention, clients, and growth. If you subconsciously fear being overwhelmed or losing freedom, you might sabotage that expansion.
Imposter syndrome
You doubt whether your message or offer is “good enough,” and that energy of hesitation seeps into everything you post.
Energetic disconnection
You post from obligation instead of alignment, and your audience can feel the lack of authenticity. Energy doesn’t lie.

How to shift your energy and show up confidently

Ground before you create
Take a few deep breaths, drop into your heart, and remind yourself of your purpose. Ask, “Who needs to hear this today?” That intention immediately shifts your energy from fear to service.
Release perfectionism
Done is better than perfect. Your audience doesn’t want polished — they want real. Allow your humanity to be part of your brand.
Connect before you sell
Energy flows where connection grows. When you focus on building genuine relationships, visibility feels less like self-promotion and more like soul communication.
Balance strategy with spirit
Pair your intuition with structure. Plan your content, but leave space for inspired moments. You’ll stay consistent without feeling boxed in.
Do the inner work
Visibility is a mirror. When resistance shows up, look at what it’s reflecting. Healing that pattern is the true secret to sustainable growth.

Practical ways to get visible right now

Record a 60-second video sharing what lights you up about your work this week.
Post a behind-the-scenes photo of your workspace, morning ritual, or project in progress.
Share a client story (with permission) that shows transformation in action.
Write a post straight from your heart — no overthinking, no filters.

Each time you show up, you tell your energy body that it’s safe to be seen. Over time, that becomes your new normal.

Remember this

Your visibility isn’t about vanity.
It’s about service.

Someone out there is waiting to hear your message in your voice, through your energy, and in your unique way.
When you hide your light, they stay stuck in the dark.

Showing up online isn’t about algorithms or aesthetics — it’s about alignment.
And when your energy, message, and action come together, your visibility becomes magnetic.

You Can’t Grow Your Business Without a Strategy or End Goal

by Anne Clark | Sep 20, 2025 | Business, Customer Journey

Too often I hear business owners say, “I want to grow my business” and then… silence. No clarity, no action plan, no roadmap. Wanting growth is one thing, but without a defined strategy or end goal, you are just wishing, not building.

So, let’s start with the obvious questions:

How do you want to grow it? Is it through more sales of digital products, more coaching clients, or more service offerings?
What funnels do you have in place to lead people to take those actions?
How are you showing up so that people can actually find you?

We are not living in the movie Field of Dreams. You can’t just build it and expect them to come. Your job is to showcase, educate, and guide your audience toward the outcome you want them to take. Assuming people just “get” what you want them to do only leads to one thing: disappointment.

Think of Your Business Like a Street Map

Picture your business as a map. You know the destination you want to reach, but there are many routes to get there. You need to create and support those different pathways so that your customers can safely arrive where you want them to go.

For example:

A coach says they want more clients but only posts randomly on Instagram. Without a funnel, the posts lead nowhere, so bookings stay flat.
A digital product creator spends weeks building a gorgeous sales page, but never runs ads, creates emails, or shares it with their audience. No one buys because no one knows it exists.

Both had destinations, but no clear routes to get there.

This is a Customer Journey

Your customer journey is not a straight line. You need to ask:

Where are they coming from?
What pain point or problem are you solving?
How will you show them you are the expert they need in their life?

Once they arrive, what happens next? Do they continue with you? Do they step away and return later? What points of the journey keep them connected to you?

The more clearly you can picture their journey, the more you can design and nurture those touchpoints. This is what keeps people supported and talking about you to others.

Start Mapping Today

Here are three steps to get you moving right now:

Define your growth goal — Do you want more clients, more digital product sales, or more visibility?
Map your funnel — What lead magnets, offers, or pathways exist to guide people to your goal?
Show up consistently — Choose how and where you will educate, guide, and attract the right people.

Growth Comes From Relationships

Remember, your focus should not always be on chasing new customers. Your existing clients are your biggest asset. I have built much of my business through referrals because I always aim to go above and beyond. People remember that.

Sometimes the journey does not unfold the way we desire, and that is okay. Every experience is an opportunity to refine the path and make sure it works for you, not against you, moving forward.

The truth is simple. You cannot grow your business if you don’t have a strategy or an end goal. Define the path, nurture the journey, and show up as the guide your customers need.

Why I Chose to Let a Client Go (and Why It Was the Best Decision for My Business)

by Anne Clark | Aug 5, 2025 | Business, Spiritual Entrepreneurs, Spirituality

Letting go of a client is never easy, especially when you pour your heart into your work and take pride in delivering to a high standard. But sometimes, the hardest decisions are the most necessary ones.

This wasn’t a decision I made lightly. In fact, I fought with both my head and my heart over it. I wanted to finish the project. I wanted to honour my commitment. I wanted to maintain my professional integrity. But I also couldn’t ignore how their energy was beginning to compromise mine.

Their constant pressure and lack of space for creativity started creeping into every part of my process. Instead of collaborating, they hovered. Instead of trusting, they micro-managed. And instead of flowing, I found myself second-guessing every step, doubting my capabilities, and even, uncharacteristically, making mistakes.

That’s not me. I’ve built my business over the past 14 years by being the calm, confident one behind the scenes. The one who delivers, creates, and supports with integrity and clarity.

And yet, I was shrinking.

Looking back, the signs were there early. I saw them. I felt them. But I talked myself out of them because this client came through a referral from someone I truly admire. So I ignored the red flags, and that’s on me.

Working with them felt less like a professional partnership and more like being stuck in a chaotic dating scenario where one person is so desperate to make it work, they bulldoze everything in their path. They threw every possible idea at me with no real strategy. They wouldn’t take my advice, even though I’ve been doing this a long time. Their words didn’t match their actions. And instead of co-creating, they had me doing everything—messaging, content, strategy, you name it. That’s not what I was hired for, and I’m not an expert in their field. I’m an expert in mine.

Still, I showed up. I delivered. I researched. I stretched myself. I gave them my best.

And yet, it wasn’t enough for them.

The turning point? I woke up one morning and didn’t want to start work on my own business.

That was the moment I knew something had to change.

Because I love what I do. I’ve worked long, hard hours over the past 14 years, but I’ve never resented it. I’m fuelled by passion, purpose, and the amazing people I get to support. But this one client was dimming that light, and worse, they were affecting how I showed up for the clients I do love working with.

So I chose me. I chose my energy. I chose my business.

I let them go.

And here’s what I’ve learned (or rather, relearned): Your energy is your most valuable business asset. You can’t do your best work in an environment that doesn’t feel safe, aligned, or respectful. And no amount of money, referral, or obligation is worth sacrificing your peace for.

If you’re a service provider reading this and you’re stuck in a client relationship that makes you feel small, compromised, or creatively blocked, this is your permission slip.

You can be professional and still protect your peace. You can be committed and still draw a line. You can love what you do and still choose to walk away.

And most importantly, you can always choose you.

You Don’t Need Another Offer You Won’t Finish – You Need a Plan

by Anne Clark | Jul 8, 2025 | Business, Online Business Manager

If you’re anything like most purpose-driven business owners, you don’t have a shortage of ideas.
You have notebooks full of them
Sticky notes on the wall
Voice notes on your phone
Late-night bursts of creativity that feel like downloads from something bigger

But here’s the thing.

Ideas are easy.
Execution is what moves the needle.

And no matter how inspired an offer is, if you don’t have a plan to bring it to life, it becomes just another brilliant idea gathering dust.

The Idea Loop That Keeps Entrepreneurs Stuck

I see this constantly.

A client has a huge vision. They’re lit up by the potential. They map out a course, a membership, a launch or a funnel in a moment of inspiration — then hit a wall.

Life gets busy
Tech becomes overwhelming
The energy dips
The idea gets shelved

Three months later, they’re inspired again. But the same cycle repeats.

It’s not that they aren’t capable. It’s that they’re trying to do too much alone — and without structure, even the most aligned offer can become a source of frustration.

What Changes When You Have a Plan (and a Partner)

When you have the right support, things move differently.

You go from:

Wondering what to prioritise to having a mapped-out plan
Spinning your wheels in tech to launching with confidence
Sitting on offers for months to selling with structure and soul

I’ve walked beside clients who had a dozen half-finished projects
Together, we brought them to life — one clear, strategic, aligned step at a time

And the shift wasn’t just in output
It was in energy
In clarity
In ownership

Ask Yourself This Before You Start Something New

Am I clear on how this offer fits into my bigger business model?
Do I know the exact steps needed to bring it to life?
Who is helping me move from vision to completion?

If you don’t have those answers, you don’t need another offer.
You need a plan.
And possibly a partner to walk beside you through it.

Ready to Turn Your Ideas Into Income?

I help business owners who are overflowing with ideas but under-supported in execution.
We map your vision.
We build the steps.
We move it into the world — sustainably and strategically.

Because you weren’t meant to hold it all alone
And your best ideas deserve to be seen, not just scribbled in a notebook

If that’s where you’re at, I’d love to connect.

Instagram Just Became a Search Engine Powerhouse

by Anne Clark | Jul 7, 2025 | Business, Digital Marketing, SEO, Social Media

If you’ve ever felt like your Instagram content was trapped in a social media black hole, seen only by your followers and maybe their dog if you were lucky, this news is about to change the game.

As of 10th July 2025, Instagram is officially allowing search engines like Google to index public posts. That’s right. Your reels, carousels and captions are no longer just Insta eye-candy. They’re now powerful, searchable assets that can boost your SEO and expand your visibility outside the app.

Here’s everything you need to know about this important update, why it matters for your business, and what you can do to make the most of it.

So, What Changed?

Instagram has finally joined the SEO party. Previously, content on Instagram wasn’t indexed by search engines. If someone Googled your niche, your brilliant reel on “How to Align Your Business with the Moon Cycle” wouldn’t appear unless it had been repurposed into a blog or YouTube video.

Now, if your Instagram account is public, your posts may show up in Google search results, helping new audiences discover your content, offerings and unique magic, all without needing to be on the app.

This is a big deal, especially for service-based businesses and spiritual entrepreneurs who rely on organic marketing and word of mouth.

Why Does This Matter for Your Business?

Because visibility equals opportunity. And now your Instagram content is working double-time for you. Here’s how:

Increased discoverability: Potential clients can now find you through a simple Google search, not just through hashtags or the Instagram algorithm.
More leads: Strategic content can attract dream clients looking for what you offer, without needing to pay for ads.
Better ROI: That beautiful carousel you spent hours designing is now an SEO asset, not just a scroll-and-forget post.

7 Ways to Optimise Your Instagram for SEO

If you’re already creating content, you’re halfway there. Now let’s make sure it’s Google-friendly.

1. Use Keywords in Captions

Google is a keyword engine. Use the exact phrases your ideal client might be typing into search, such as “naturopath for women’s hormones” or “how to start a spiritual business.”

Pro tip: Front-load your captions with keywords and write them in a way that sounds like you’re answering a search query.

2. Customise Your Alt Text

Instagram allows you to manually add alt text to images. This helps with accessibility and now also functions as an SEO signal.

For example, write “Crystal grid for abundance intention setting – spiritual entrepreneur tools” instead of “Image of crystals.”

3. Name Your Image Files Before Uploading

Instagram stores the original file names. If you’re uploading from desktop, rename your image files before posting. Something like “breathwork_tips_for_business_owners.jpg” is more effective than “IMG_8495.jpg”.

4. Choose Niche Hashtags

Generic hashtags like #healing or #businesscoach are overly broad. Use specific, long-tail hashtags that include keywords, such as #AkashicRecordCoach or #SoulLedSystems.

5. Create Shareable, Evergreen Content

Google favours timeless content. Think educational carousels, tips and how-tos over trendy quotes or one-off memes.

A carousel titled “How to Create Aligned Systems for Your Spiritual Business” will have a much longer shelf life and more SEO traction than “Feeling Cute Might Delete Later”.

6. Repurpose Blog Posts into Reels and Reels into Blogs

Now that both blogs and Instagram content can rank on Google, they can support each other. Use your blog content to inspire carousel posts, and your high-performing posts to inspire new blog topics.

7. Link Instagram in Your Website and Newsletters

Build a connected web of content by linking your Instagram in your blogs, newsletters and email signature. The more connected your digital assets are, the more authority Google gives to your brand.

A Few Things to Keep in Mind

Only public profiles are eligible to have content indexed by Google
Not every post will be indexed right away. It will take time
Stories, DMs and private content will remain private

This update is an incredible opportunity, especially for those who want their content to work smarter. Your Instagram profile is no longer just a portfolio. It is now a legitimate SEO asset.

If you’re already creating thoughtful content, a few simple tweaks can turn your Instagram into a tool that not only engages but attracts.

If you would love support in aligning your content strategy with this new visibility upgrade, I would love to help. That’s what I do best.

What High-Level Clients Actually Look For When Hiring Support

by Anne Clark | Jul 1, 2025 | Business, Online Business Manager

When clients are ready to scale their business, they aren’t looking for someone to just “help out.”

They’re looking for someone they can trust with their vision
Someone who thinks ahead
Someone who can lead, manage and execute — without needing constant direction

They’re not hiring for tasks.
They’re hiring for outcomes.

And the difference between being hired as support versus being seen as a trusted partner comes down to more than skillset.

It comes down to presence, ownership and energy.

High-Level Clients Want More Than a To-Do List Ticker

Let’s get clear on what premium clients are actually looking for when they hire someone to work alongside them in their business:

Proactive Communication – They don’t want to chase updates. They want someone who anticipates needs and keeps things moving.
Strategic Thinking – They value input. They want someone who can refine ideas, not just implement them.
Trust and Discretion – They need to feel safe handing over access, ideas and responsibility.
Energy Alignment – They want to feel like you get them. Not just in process, but in presence.

When someone is hiring at a high level, it’s never just about what you do — it’s about how you show up.

From Task-Doer to Trusted Partner

I’ve worked with clients who have said the same thing over and over again:

“I just need someone I don’t have to manage.”
That’s not a small ask — but it is the standard when someone is ready to invest at a premium level.

It means you walk in with clarity
You make decisions when they can’t
You hold the thread of their business when they are in client mode, parenting mode or resting mode

That’s what builds long-term relationships.
That’s what makes you irreplaceable.

If You’re Ready to Attract High-Level Clients, Ask Yourself:

Am I showing up as a leader in the spaces I want to be hired?
Do I take initiative in every part of my client experience?
Can I confidently support the backend and the big picture?

Premium clients are not just buying your time.
They are buying certainty.

Want to Be That Person for Your Clients?

If you’re building a business that delivers more than checklists
If you want to stand beside your clients as a true partner
Or if you are that client and need someone to step into your business with that level of care and skill — let’s connect

Because the people who are ready to go to the next level are looking for someone who already operates from that level
Not someone they need to train up to get there

And if that’s you, I’m ready when you are.
