Episode 376
You landed the dream gig, got the promotion, submitted your book for publishing, had an amazing first date.
So, why do you feel so insecure, unsure and even unworthy?
Hello, imposter syndrome!
Imposter syndrome, or feeling like a fraud, is something that everyone struggles with from time to time — yep, even those super successful people you look up to.
It's that feeling that you don't really deserve the recognition or opportunities you've earned or you worry you're not really good enough for them. It often sounds like, "If they only knew…"
Imposter syndrome can pop up when something good happens in our life or it can hold us back from ever going after our dreams.
In this episode, I'm breaking down exactly what imposter syndrome is, where it comes from and the concrete steps you can take to work through it and overcome it!

Practical steps to stop feeling like a fraud or an imposter
Feeling like a fraud is part of the human experience. But because this feeling causes us shame, we hide it and then end up thinking we're the only ones. It's time we talk about it openly — and talk about what you can do so it doesn't hold you back any longer!
I hope the steps in this episode are steps you can turn to anytime you feel imposter syndrome creep up.
