Are you an accountant, CPA, or bookkeeper struggling with imposter syndrome? In this episode of Escaping the Accountant's Trap, Adam Lean is joined by Nancy McClelland CPA, aka The Dancing Accountant, to tackle this widespread issue. Nancy shares her expertise on imposter syndrome - what it really means, how to know if you have it or are simply learning something new, and practical tips for overcoming those feelings of being a fraud.

You'll hear Nancy's insightful perspective on why imposter syndrome disproportionately affects women and minorities, the difference between self-doubt and truly being an imposter, and how education and experience are key to building real confidence. Whether you're a bookkeeper looking to offer CFO advisory services or an accountant moving into a new realm, this episode provides valuable guidance for escaping the trap of imposter syndrome.
