Human Design, Visibility, and the Quiet Power of Women who finally trust their own blueprint

What happens when a woman who’s built six businesses finally recognizes that none of them lit her up the way her current work with human design and non‑alcoholic mixology does and realizes that her “squirt‑like” energy was actually covering a deeply quiet, grounding life purpose all along? In this episode of Women Getting Visible host Christina Vidovich sits down with Lisa Danforth, business mentor, wellbeing strategist, human design guide, and non‑alcoholic mixologist to talk about how women can use human design as a practical blueprint for visibility, decision‑making and showing up aligned instead of performative. Lisa shares how universe‑level synchronicities kept dropping non‑alcoholic mixology into her lap, even while she was resisting the “no, thank you” reflex that so many women feel when an inspired idea shows up. She walks through what human design actually is: a personalized map of your type, authority, strategy and communication center that helps you pause wait for the right invitations, and speak from instinct instead of people‑pleasing especially powerful for women who’ve been conditioned to silence their own intuition. She also unpacks her own “incarnation cross” and the idea of “restraint” as a core force: learning that her true radiance is in creating stillness, clarity, and grounding for others, which turned her squirrel‑like, always‑on persona into a quiet, powerful mentor rather than a burnout‑prone do‑it‑all. This episode is for you if you’re a woman founder or leader who’s good at building businesses but still feels like “something’s missing” until you finally feel aligned, if you’re tired of pushing visibility formulas that don’t match your nature, and if you’re curious how human design can help you know when to speak when to wait and how to build identity‑based habits instead of one‑off leaps. This episode is for you if you resonate with the double bind of being either “too much” or “not enough,” and you’re ready to remove the old “not qualified, not supported, not enough” lens and start experimenting with a “what if I’m here to bring this” lens that lets you step into your gifts incrementally, without burning out. Memorable moments – ✨ The moment Lisa reveals that her “restraint” life theme means her core power is creating stillness that centers other people completely overturning her younger identity as the “squirrel” who’s always on the go. – ✨ Her story of ignoring inspired ideas for years (including non‑alcoholic mixology) and the friend who finally called her out on the pattern: “You’re clearly inspired by this, so why not just explore it lightly?” – ✨ The way she explains how human design helps projectors like herself learn to wait for the invitation instead of oversharing, and how that simple pause completely changes how her business ideas land and how she preserves her energy. – ✨ When she contrasts the inner critic (“you can’t do this, you don’t have enough”) with the inner mentor (“how can you do this?”) and shows how human design helps women reframe visibility as a series of small, aligned experiments instead of an all‑or‑nothing leap. – ✨ Her simple, practical answer to “what if I’ve never done this before?”: start with a high‑level human design reading, then use those tools to make your own marketing, messaging, and visibility decisions, without feeling permanently dependent on a guide. 🔗 Connect & learn more Website: https://www.womengettingvisible.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/womengettingvisible LinkedIn Christina: https://www.linkedin.com/in/christinavidovich/ LinkedIn Guest: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lisadanforth/ Guest links: https://lisa-danforth.com  ✨ Real stories.

Finding Clarity and Courage Through the Power of Story

What happens when a woman who’s been visible on stage as a dancer and performer for 20 years suddenly feels like a complete stranger in her own body, and realizes that true visibility isn’t just about being seen but about being comfortable with who she has become? In this episode of Women Getting Visible, host Christina Vidovich sits down with Amy Newsom, storytelling mentor, visibility accountability partner, and co‑host of the Visibility Accountability Group with Women Getting Visible, to talk about how courage, clarity, and confidence build the foundation for women who want to speak, podcast, and show up online without freezing up or hiding behind layers of “I’m not ready.” This episode is for you if you’re a woman founder or leader who already has a “one‑word” year but still feels stuck around visibility, if you’re tired of looping back into the same cycle of self‑doubt and shame and want tools to reframe your story, or if you’re curious about how to use storytelling and vulnerability not as a performance but as a way to actually connect with your people and your purpose. This episode is for you if you’re watching 2025 fade away and wondering whether you really showed up or just showed up online, if you’re drawn to the 2026 Women Getting Visible Conference in Minneapolis focused on courage, clarity, and confidence, or if you’re looking for a place where someone will actually hold you accountable to show up, week after week, instead of letting you disappear back into the edge of the room. This episode is for you if you’ve ever stood in front of a camera, a mic, or a networking crowd and thought, “I’m not the person I used to be and I’m not sure who this is anymore,” and you’re ready to start treating visibility as a practice like a sport you get rusty at when you stop, not as a magic trick that has to be perfect the first time. Memorable moments – ✨ The moment Amy describes how visibility and shame are locked together, and how simply sharing her story with open‑minded people rewired the way she carried that shame in her own body. – ✨ When she reveals that her long‑term “three‑C” framework courage, clarity, and confidence predates the current AI‑prompted buzzwords, and how she spent three years earning that clarity for herself before bringing it to the Minneapolis conference. – ✨ Her story of using weight as a way to hide from visibility, only to realize that people were noticing her anyway, and how that awareness became one of the first cracks in her own cycle of avoidance. – ✨ The image of the teenage pimple on the nose: how most of the room is staring at their own “pimples” and barely noticing yours, and why that perspective is key to stepping into the visible, uncomfortable spotlight. – ✨ The open‑mic mentality at the Women Getting Visible Conference: that women are invited to test a 10‑minute story, business pitch, or lived‑lesson on stage, knowing they’ll be celebrated, encouraged, and gently coached instead of judged as “not ready yet.” 🔗 Connect & learn more Website: https://www.womengettingvisible.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/womengettingvisible LinkedIn Christina: https://www.linkedin.com/in/christinavidovich/ LinkedIn Guest: https://www.linkedin.com/in/amynubson-business-coach/ ✨ Real stories.
