Sharepidation (noun)Β A fusion of sharing and trepidation, sharepidation refers to the state or condition in which a person feels anxious, apprehensive, or nervous about disclosing or presenting their work, ideas, or personal creations more widely. This term encapsulates the vulnerable and courageous act of making oneβs efforts transparent despite the underlying fear of judgement, criticism, or rejection.
I come across this all of the time inΒ We Are Open Co-opβs work. People get over it (and flourish!) but itβs aΒ thing. So letβs have a name for it!
