The Visibility Standard
Ever stare at a post for 20 minutes, rewrite the caption five times, then save it to drafts because "what if people from my real life see this?"
Spiraling over your content because you're terrified of judgment? Sitting with that crushing "nobody cares" voice while your best ideas collect dust in your drafts folder? Tired of hiding behind safe posts and watching other people build the visibility you secretly want? The Visibility Standard is your permission slip to stop playing small online.
I'm Jazzmyn Proctor, therapist-turned-visibility strategist, and I understand the real psychology behind why we hide. The exhausting mental gymnastics of wanting to be seen while being terrified of perception. The paralyzing perfectionism that keeps your most powerful content locked away.
Every Monday, I drop bold solo episodes breaking down the fears behind showing up online—from "what will my family think?" anxiety to the comparison trap that has you posting like everyone else instead of like yourself.
Every Friday, I sit down with founders, visionaries, and healers who are owning their brands unapologetically and shifting the entire social commentary around what it means to be visible. We're talking about the real work of building authentic influence while staying true to who you are.
If you've been waiting for permission to quit hiding your real thoughts behind safe content and actually claim your space in the conversation—this is your sign.
Stop shrinking. Start expanding. Set the standard.

The Helper's Dilemma: Showing Up Without Losing Yourself with Samantha Southard
Ever feel like you're holding everyone else's pain while your own cup is completely empty? Exhausted from being the "strong friend" who shows up for everyone but struggles to ask for help yourself?
In this episode, I sit down with the iconic Sam Southard, better known as The Blonde Therapist—a trauma therapist, content creator, and unapologetic truth-teller who's redefining what it means to show up authentically online.
We're getting real about what healing actually looks like when everything feels chaotic, why traditional therapy advice doesn't always hit when you're dealing with collective trauma, and how to navigate social media as both a professional and a human trying to stay sane.
We unpack:
💔 Understanding trauma responses and breaking unhealthy relationship patterns
🌍 Processing collective overwhelm without losing yourself in the process
📱 Showing up authentically on social media as a helping professional (without burning out)
🤝 Why community support isn't just nice-to-have—it's survival
⚖️ Holding boundaries and compassion at the same time (yes, it's possible)
🗣️ The role of speaking truth in your healing journey
🎧 Ready to stop carrying everyone else's emotional load? Tune in for real talk about boundaries, healing, and showing up authentically without the burnout.
