What Impostor Syndrome Feels Like:

Five Common Types of Impostor Syndrome:

  • The Perfectionist: Always striving for flawless results

  • The Expert: Believing you must know everything before speaking up

  • The Soloist: Thinking you must accomplish everything alone

  • The Superhuman: Assuming true competence means doing it all effortlessly

  • The Great Mind: Judging yourself harshly if things don’t come quickly and easily

Strategies to Combat Negative Self-Talk:

  • Understanding your negative voice is NOT your identity

  • Challenging self-doubt with biblical truth and affirmation

  • Practicing gratitude and recognizing your God-given gifts

  • Taking every negative thought captive and replacing it with empowering beliefs

  • Recognizing that God equips you for every opportunity

  • Walking boldly in rooms knowing God placed you there

  • Learning to separate your experience from your identity in Christ

Listen to this transformative episode to learn how to break free from impostor syndrome, reclaim your confidence, and embrace the incredible purpose God has placed on your life.
