We were lucky to catch up with Des Caminos recently and have shared our conversation below.

Des, thanks for taking the time to share your stories with us today Let’s start with a story that highlights an important way in which your brand diverges from the industry standard.

In my world, visibility isn’t just a marketing tactic. It’s a reclamation.

The industry often treats visibility like a game- post more, speak louder, follow the algorithm. But I see it differently. Visibility begins with safety, not strategy. It starts in the body, in the nervous system, in the quiet decision to stop performing and start telling the truth.

What makes my work different is that I don’t push women to be louder or more polished. I guide them to remember who they are beneath the noise. I help them feel safe enough to be seen as they are… imperfect, powerful, and fully expressed! To reconnect with their voice and stand unapologetically in their word, so they attract more aligned clients, grow their income, and expand their impact, without sacrificing their wellbeing or their truth.

This is what the revolution looks like to me: women feeling safe in their own minds. Trusting their voice. Taking up space not because they’ve mastered a strategy, but because they’ve remembered their worth. When women feel safe to be fully seen, they lead. They create. They rise. And they redistribute power and wealth in ways that change everything.

Des, love having you share your insights with us. Before we ask you more questions, maybe you can take a moment to introduce yourself to our readers who might have missed our earlier conversations?

I work with soul-led female entrepreneurs who know they’re here to change the world, but somewhere along the way, visibility started feeling like pressure instead of power.

I’m a visibility coach rooted in somatics and embodiment, and everything I do is built around this core truth: when a woman feels safe in her mind and body, she remembers who the fudge she is. And when that happens? She shows up rooted in her worth, speaks without shrinking, calls in aligned clients, and grows her income… without abandoning herself.

I know this path intimately. I’ve lived the perfectionism, the people-pleasing, the chronic self-editing. I’ve been the high-achiever who still didn’t feel enough. My turning point didn’t come through strategy, it came through healing. I left the hustle, moved to Prague, taught burlesque as a form of reclamation, started a nonprofit for women’s empowerment, worked with UN Ambassadors and did the inner work that finally let me be seen without Fear running the show.

Now, I guide other women back to the place where their voice feels like truth not performance. Where being seen isn’t just strategic, it’s liberating!!! Our voices were never meant to play small. They’re meant to lead, to liberate, and to leave a legacy.

Through my 6-month group program (The Visibility Playground), my 1:1 mentorship (The Inner Trust Academy), and my upcoming course (Rituals as Reels), I help women move from self-doubt and perfectionism into embodied, unapologetic expression for greater impact, income, and inner peace.

What sets me apart? I don’t teach women how to go viral. I remind them how to feel safe being fully seen, so they can turn their message into a movement and rise without abandoning any part of themselves.

Because when a woman comes home to herself — the world doesn’t just watch. It changes.

Have you ever had to pivot?

There was a moment — not too long ago — when everything on the outside looked like it was working. And I found myself at a turning point — the kind that doesn’t crash in with chaos, but whispers meh in your chest.

I had just moved back to the U.S. after seven years abroad. I’d left behind two successful companies, ready to expand into the U.S. market with fresh vision. And even after nearly a decade offline and off the radar, I grew my business in that first year — no big presence, no curated brand. Just embodiment, integrity, and a deep knowing that my work works.

But behind the scenes? I was playing it safe.

I’d built my business around what I knew; psychology, DBT, somatics, inner child work. And while I loved supporting recovering perfectionists (especially those healing from toxic relationships), something felt flat. I was making it work… but I wasn’t lit up. Maybe you know that feeling… when things are fine, but your soul’s whispering: this isn’t it anymore.

Deep down, I knew where my heart was pulling me, toward helping soul-led entrepreneurs around real visibility. Not just content. Confidence. Nervous system safety. Showing up without shrinking. But I was scared. I didn’t want to be labeled an “influencer”, so I stayed where it felt familiar. Quiet. Safe. Stuck. Meh.

Until one day, I was sitting at my desk, looking out the window. The sun was hitting my face, and for the first time in weeks, I paused long enough to hear my inner thoughts of; You didn’t start this business just to survive. You started it to make a difference.I remembered if all I wanted was a paycheck, I could go get a J-O-B. But I chose this path to disrupt. To empower. To lead. I’m here for heartbeats over hashtags. That was the moment it shifted and I pivoted.

I got honest. I paused the noise. I stopped taking misaligned clients. I reconnected to my sacred why. And I did my own deep work around visibility and worth — the kind that reminded me: it’s not about being louder. It’s about feeling safe to be fully seen.

Week by week, I rebuilt. Not just my business, but my voice. My medicine. My mission. And when I came out of that cocoon, like a butterfly who’d been in a chrysalis of intention, I launched a new offer that brought in over $20k. But more importantly? It felt true.

I didn’t pivot because I failed. I pivoted because I evolved.
Because the version of me that once fit the plan… no longer fit the vision.
Maybe you know that feeling, when staying the same starts to feel like the real risk.

Because deep down, we’re not here to play small… we’re here to change the world

Any insights you can share with us about how you built up your social media presence?

Can I be honest? I didn’t build my audience by trying to “build an audience.” When I came back to the U.S. after seven years abroad, I had no online presence and zero interest in becoming a polished, content-machine version of myself.

I didn’t want to add to the noise. I wanted to be the resource I wish I’d had, back when I felt like too much and not enough. When I thought I had to overachieve my way into love, value, or visibility.

So every time I created, I thought about her… the version of me who was doubting her voice, shrinking her truth, overthinking every word. I’d ask, “What does she need to hear today?” or “What do I wish someone had told me back then?”
Some days it was sacred. Some days it was messy. Most days it was both, haha.
And that’s what grew my audience.

I didn’t show up with a highlight reel, I showed up with honest reflection, play, presence, and zero judgment. Because I know what it’s like to scroll through advice that only makes you feel further behind.

So if you’re just starting out? Here’s what I’ll say:

Let your content come from your body, not just your brain.
Post the thing you wish someone had said to you.
Your audience isn’t looking for a Priestess on a pedestal — they’re looking for someone they trust to guide them.

So don’t be afraid to include a CTA. And no, it doesn’t always have to be “click here.”
A great CTA invites connection. Maybe it’s “follow for more,” or “drop 1 word that describes your day,”

Social media doesn’t have to feel like shouting into the void, I promise.
Visibility isn’t about being louder and being everywhere.
It’s about being fully you, wherever you are.
