The Visibility Trap That’s Wasting Your Time [Vanity Metrics Detox Series Part 1]

Entrepreneur School

Ever posted something just to look like you're marketing your business? Guilty.

This is the kickoff episode of the Vanity Metrics Detox—a four-part series designed to help you stop wasting time on “looking visible” and start focusing on what actually gets you clients.

Today we’re diving into performative visibility—aka the stuff you do that feels productive (like tweaking your website for the 10th time or making another Instagram reel) but doesn't actually move the needle in your business.

I’m sharing how to spot it, why it’s draining your energy, and what to do instead so your efforts actually translate to clients, income, and impact.

If you’ve ever felt stuck in the social media hamster wheel or overwhelmed trying to keep up, this is your permission slip to opt out—and a roadmap for what to do instead.

We’re talking:

• The sneaky signs of performative visibility (and how to quit them)
• Why real visibility doesn't always look flashy
• Strategic visibility swaps that actually grow your business
• A juicy behind-the-scenes story of how one networking event turned into a biz partnership (!)
• The mantra that’ll help you detox busy work from your marketing strategy

✨ Plus, a sneak peek at Valerie—my brand new visibility audit tool that’ll help you track what’s actually working and ditch what’s not.
