In today’s episode, Cindy Esliger talks about fear, specifically the fear that can hinder career growth. It may appear as imposter syndrome, perfectionism, or questioning self-worth, but it can take a toll. Sometimes it can be overcome by reframing it. Words have power and Cindy explains why the way you talk to yourself matters.  

The three major fears - imposter syndrome, perfectionism, and questioning self-worth - can impact success in professional settings. Cindy offers a three-step process to help overcome them: 1. Name it, 2. Tame it, and 3. Claim it. She discusses each step in depth, exploring where each of the fears stems from, their impacts, and why the power of words can combat the fear. A shift in language encourages a mindset of progress and resilience.  

Cindy’s advice identifies where the pain points in our professional lives arise. We tend to let the fear take over, internalizing it instead of reframing it. The power of language, using words to acknowledge our fear and address the feelings surrounding it, can make a difference and spark self-confidence in us. This is what Cindy talks about, where within ourselves the transformative key lies and how to access it. Overcoming fear means harnessing power and overcoming obstacles and both are required to achieve successful career growth.
