Sharing on social media can feel like stepping into the spotlight with nowhere to hide. 

How do we show up bravely without losing ourselves? 

How do we share our voices in ways that build genuine connections instead of just chasing likes and follows?

How can we show up without cringing inside?

For this inspiring Friday Fireside, we’ll be in conversation with visibility coach and video branding specialist Kevan Smith, exploring how to show up online with consistency, authenticity, and courage. 

Kevan’s work goes beyond creating videos. He crafts conversations, inviting people to connect through honest storytelling and meaningful content.

Being brave enough to share your story without feeling like you need to have all the answers.

Showing up as your true self, letting your vulnerability become a bridge to connection.

Creating content that feels human and generous, not just another sales pitch.

Giving space for others’ voices, whether you’re speaking up or amplifying those around you.

Learning from Kevan’s work with Brighton United, where he champions visibility for underrepresented communities, offering immigrants and the global majority a sense of belonging, connection, and opportunity.

If you’ve been holding back from being seen because it feels self-indulgent or egotistical, we'll offer a refreshing and alternative perspective. 

Because, while you do need clarity on how your experience serves your community, it’s not about presenting yourself as the end-all-be-all expert. 

It’s about showing up as your thoroughly human self, sharing what matters to you, and inviting others to do the same.
