Ditching Imposter Syndrome

There's a topic that's hitting my inbox each and every day at the moment - and the essence of it is why I can't ditch Imposter Syndrome for you. And that's not as obvious a statement as it might seem!

This episode is a queue-jumper. I was planning to talk with you about how to spot the warning signs for Imposter Syndrome this week, but this topic is so important, I didn't want it to wait.

• The problem with Imposter Syndrome coping strategies
• The real message behind the complaints I've been getting in my inbox
• Why the 'basta-moment' is the key to creating breakthroughs
• The three-lettered word that has to come before you take action
• The self-mentoring question that can shift you from 'information' to 'implementation' and actually creating change in your life

Is it time to set yourself free from the Imposter Syndrome bridge of coping strategies?

Find out what it is - and how we use it to deal with the 'Imposter Syndrome Gap' - and why it falls apart whenever we have to stretch a comfort zone or step up with our visibility.

In this episode, you'll discover what the research has to say about this, why most of the advice out there on the internet about Imposter Syndrome is just sticky plasters, and why it's time to stop putting up with that.

Plus you'll find out how to close the Imposter Syndrome Gap, so you no longer need that bridge of coping strategies!
