What happens when two women committed to visibility, truth, and sisterhood sit down together in Charlotte?

In this episode of Women Getting Visible, host Christina Vidovich talks with communications pro, coach, and workshop leader Totlyn Oliver about creating safe spaces for women, the power of stories, and why self‑communication is the foundation of visibility. They explore why so many women have been “hushed into quietude,” told that no one wants to hear their struggles, and how that silencing affects confidence, voice, and how we show up at home, at work, and in the world.​

Totlyn shares how she thinks about enrichment rather than “empowerment,” why every woman needs to become her own center of influence, and how simple interactions—in line at the store, at a conference, or at work—can become moments of impact. Christina and Totlyn discuss visibility in safe rooms vs. competitive spaces, the “little dots” from the last 5–13 years that still color how we see ourselves, and how conferences and circles help women see their truth and value more clearly.​

Memorable moments:

• “Hushed into quietude”: why so many women were told to dry their tears, keep moving, and never speak their struggles—and what that does to visibility.​

• The “little dot” metaphor: how one bad moment can tint your whole story, and how to start seeing the whole picture again.​

• Self‑communication as visibility: becoming your own center of influence when you cannot reach anyone else.​

• Women‑hurting‑women online vs. the power of truly safe rooms, wisdom circles, and intergenerational legacy conversations.​

Listen if you want to feel safer, stronger, and more grounded in who you are—before you get louder online or on stage. Follow Women Getting Visible for weekly conversations that help women own their voice, story, and stage, and share this episode with a woman who needs a reminder that there is a circle ready to welcome her.​
