In this episode of the Omni Mindfulness Podcast, Shilpa Lewis speaks with digital strategist Paul Culshaw about a growing challenge for founders and experts online: the legibility gap — when real expertise exists but isn’t clearly recognized in the digital world.
Paul has spent more than 25 years in digital marketing, working across SEO, online strategy, and visibility systems. Today he helps solopreneurs and personal brands become recognized experts online, especially as AI-driven platforms begin shaping how credibility and authority are surfaced.
Together, we explore how clarity, structure, and authentic expertise help founders stand out — not only in search engines, but increasingly inside AI systems like ChatGPT and other large language models.
Because in an age of algorithmic amplification, expertise alone isn’t enough — it must be legible.
In This Episode

• The concept of the Legibility Gap and how it affects recognition in AI-driven systems
