Connection Accepted Why Posting on LinkedIn Feels Cringe (And How to Fix It)
Posting on LinkedIn is "mental warfare."
Everyone feels it. The fear of "climbing Cringe Mountain." The feeling of being self-conscious, the fear of "rejection at scale," and the "moat of low status" you have to cross while people wonder what you're doing.
It's the single biggest thing that stops people from building an audience.
In this conversation, we break down the psychology of content creation. We share the exact, behind-the-scenes stories of pushing past the fear, what to do after a post goes viral, and why the cringe feeling may actually be a good sign.
In This Episode, We Cover:
Climbing Cringe Mountain: The psychology of why posting feels so uncomfortable.
"Rejection at Scale": The mental warfare of putting yourself out there.
The "One-Hit Wonder" Problem: The immense mental pressure after a post goes viral.
The Moat of Low Status: The social hit you must take before you succeed.
The "Cringe" Signal: Why feeling uncomfortable might mean your post will perform better.
If you're tired of feeling scared to hit post, this conversation is the tactical playbook you need.
