By discussing it in public and not worrying about someone stealing it.
People are too busy to steal your idea. They have their own lives, their own plans, and their own visions. They’re not just going to walk in and steal yours, unless they’re desperate.
I posted a whole executive summary for a company I was going to build online on a very public site with a high ranking question that many people ask Google.
I laid out basically everything too, aside from maybe the manufacturers, the product itself, and the cost structure of the business.
No one stole my business idea.
