If Destroyed Still True

The Imposters Club is back with The Good Enough Guide, a 10-part post-lockdown survival guide to help you feel good enough and choose what’s good enough for you.

In this episode, Sinéad and Melissa talk about advocating for yourself - asking for what you want, standing up for what you need and upholding your boundaries. We started the season by focusing on what’s important to us and now we’re jumping in with both feet and asking for it. Tiwalola Ogunlesi, founder of Confident and Killing It, joins us for a chat about building the confidence to go for what we want, and why imposter syndrome is just temporary memory loss.

The Imposters Club is back with The Good Enough Guide, a 10-part post-lockdown survival guide to help you feel good enough and choose what’s good enough for you.

In this episode, Sinéad and Melissa get to grips with how our relationships with our bodies have changed throughout the pandemic. After a year stuck inside staring at our faces on Zoom, diet culture is as pervasive as ever and everyone seems panicked about the ‘lockdown glow-up’- and that’s all while we’re dealing with the physical effects of stress on our bodies. Body image researcher Dr Nadia Craddock from the Body Protest podcast pops in to talk about how the pandemic has impacted our body image, the importance of diet-free workplaces and how we can support each other in having a better relationship with our appearance.

The Imposters Club is back with The Good Enough Guide, a 10-part post-lockdown survival guide to help you feel good enough and choose what’s good enough for you.

In this episode, Sinéad and Melissa discuss what it means to have a good - or bad - working day, from understanding what you’re capable of, to getting sh*t done and recovering when things don’t go so well. They speak to Cate Sevilla, author of How to Work Without Losing Your Mind, about difficult conversations, setting boundaries and why it’s so important to remember that you are only one person.

We’re Back! 

Welcome to the Good Enough Guide- our post-lockdown survival guide to help you feel good enough and choose what’s good enough for you.

This special 10 part series will support you in navigating imposter syndrome and self doubt, as we ease the restrictions that have defined our lives for the past year.

If you’ve been feeling anxious about what’s next, you’re not alone. We’ll be talking our way through the potential anxieties, triumphs and lessons that have come to define the “new normal” (yes, we’re sick of that phrase too).

From redefining success to giving your body some love, coping with change to advocating for yourself, we’ll be chatting to experts for their practical tips and sharing your voices- because we really are all in it together. 

Head over to our instagram @theimpostersclub to follow our 10 part guide - and be sure to subscribe ready for the launch on 19th May

Sinéad and Melissa are back home with their mics to talk through managing imposter syndrome and living life on our own terms. Happy new year, and stay safe!

In this episode, we deep-dive into everything we learnt from the dumpster fire year that was 2020 (we promise there was something!), and how to complete your stress-cycle to avoid burnout. We turn, with radical hope, to 2021, and chat about how intentions are way more nourishing in tough times than new year’s resolutions.
