A talent nobody knows about can’t get hired, booked or recommended. Let people see what you can do.

Ability does not circulate on its own. Recommendations happen when someone remembers you at the moment a need appears, and they can only remember what they have actually seen. Keeping your work private protects you from judgment and also removes you from every conversation where opportunities get handed out.

Make one thing visible this month, at whatever scale you can manage. Post it, perform it, send it to three people who might care. You are not asking anyone for anything. You are making sure your name is attached to something concrete when someone goes looking.
