Ep 2: Say Yes Before You’re Ready (How I Accidentally Started My Speaking Career)

What happens when someone asks, “What about you?” and you say yes before you have any idea what you’re doing? In this episode, Renée shares the story of the speaking opportunity that changed the direction of her career. What began as a volunteer leadership role, a borrowed idea, some hastily made slides, and a whole lot of nerve eventually put her in front of thousands of people and opened the door to a career she had not yet imagined for herself. It’s a story about meeting the moment, taking action before you feel ready, and recognizing that the opportunity you keep waiting for may require you to pitch yourself first. Renée also challenges you to identify one thing you want to be part of and finally throw your hat in the ring. Because you may not feel ready. You can still show up anyway.

Episode 1: The Visibility Problem

In the very first episode of *Show Up Anyway*, Renée Dalo introduces the visibility problem: the gap between how qualified you are and how visible you allow yourself to be. If showing up online feels harder than it “should,” this episode will help you understand why. Renée talks about perfectionism, overthinking, nervous system resistance, fear of being judged, and why visibility is not just a marketing problem. She also shares what happened when one of her reels reached 2.7 million views, why going viral did not magically change everything overnight, and how it did expand her capacity to be seen. This episode is your permission slip to stop waiting until you feel ready and start building small visibility reps instead.
