✨ Dealing with Negativity: As a recovering people-pleaser, Alicia discusses how she navigates online abuse, sets boundaries, and protects her mental health.

✨ Your Two Cents Podcast: Alicia’s podcast creates space for open, honest conversations about money, finances, and how we can break the stigma around talking about it.

✨ Support Systems & Hooray Folders: The importance of celebrating wins - big and small - and surrounding yourself with people who lift you up.

Whether she’s navigating self-doubt or leaning into life’s funnier moments, Alicia’s ability to stay grounded while reaching millions is truly inspiring.

This week on Imposter Sisters, Alix and Colleen take a different approach - no guest, just the two of us diving into a topic that’s deeply personal. With both of us recently diagnosed with ADHD, we’re opening up about how it intersects with imposter syndrome.

In this episode, we explore how ADHD contributes to imposter syndrome, starting with executive function challenges. We also touch on difficulty accepting positive feedback, negative self-talk, delayed or abandoned goals, feelings of overwhelm, inconsistent performance, and the ever-present fear of failure and a few of the common misconceptions about ADHD that we've all heard time and time again.

As this is all very new to us, we’re still in the process of learning - finding the right medications, systems, and strategies that work for us. This conversation is just Part One of what we expect will be an ongoing dialogue as we continue to navigate this newfound "superpower."

Tune in for a raw and honest discussion about ADHD, imposter syndrome, and the journey toward self-acceptance.

In this inspiring episode, we sit down with Martina Kelades, a mental health advocate, podcast host and actress, whose journey is as impactful as it is diverse.

Martina opens up about her early career dedicated to helping others, which soon evolved into a personal commitment to mental health advocacy when she faced her own challenges of overwhelm and burnout. Supported by her family, she took a step back to rest and realign, which led her down a path of self-discovery, renewed purpose, and a deeper commitment to lifting up others.

Martina shares how she found a voice through podcasting, addressing the mental health struggles so many experience yet find difficult to discuss openly. Her work took another turn with her unexpected success on TikTok, where her talent and authenticity quickly attracted attention. This new creative outlet led her to explore acting, where her natural abilities landed her opportunities and expanded her reach.

In this episode, we also explore Martina's experiences growing up as one of the few Black girls in a rural town, her sense of belonging, and how her faith has shaped her perspective. Join us as we talk about acting, family, mental health, community, faith, and the power of finding purpose in unexpected places.

In our second episode of the season, we chat with Shaina Falcone about her multifaceted journey as a menopause coach, fitness educator, and emerging influencer in the digital fitness space. 

Shaina tells us about her internal struggles with imposter syndrome, especially as she stepped into the role of an influencer within the fitness industry. Despite her vast knowledge and dedication to supporting women, the fear of not being "enough" or the doubt in her expertise occasionally clouded her confidence. 

When the pandemic forced many in the fitness industry to rethink their delivery methods, Shaina turned this period of uncertainty into an opportunity for growth. She shares how the initial challenges of adopting new technology, creating engaging online content, and building a virtual community shaped her journey and what she did to fuel her ambition to succeed in the digital realm.

Shaina story is a powerful reminder of the possibility that lies on the other side of fear and uncertainty. By embracing every part of her journey, including imposter syndrome and the challenges of menopause, Shaina has become a beacon of hope and inspiration for women navigating similar paths.

This episode is a great example of finding strength in vulnerability, the importance of community, and the undeniable impact of pursuing one's passion, no matter the obstacles.

For anyone looking to find understanding, support, and inspiration in their fitness journey and beyond, Shaina Falcone's insights offer a guiding light through the complexities of health, menopause, and the ever-evolving digital landscape.

In this episode, Alix and Colleen dive deep into the root causes of Imposter Syndrome. We break down what causes Imposter Syndrome and chat about how it sneaks into our everyday lives. From self-doubt to societal pressures, we explore where these feelings originate and how they impact us.

It’s perfect timing to be discussing this as we both feel a little intimidated and overwhelmed by trying something new - recording in a professional studio for the first time! We're excited to be partnering with BNV Media this season to take the podcast to the next level. For the past two seasons, Imposter Sisters was a DIY project where we learned everything from scratch. Now, we’re stepping into new territory to see where else this journey can take us!

A huge thanks to Alix for handling the tech side of things for the last two seasons, and an even bigger thank you to The Mellow Mug for welcoming us into their coffee shop and giving us a space to launch Imposter Sisters. We couldn’t have done it without your support!

Imposter Syndrome has many root causes, and we’re kicking off this season by getting to the heart of it all.

The Imposter Sisters podcast is hosted by two self-proclaimed "fake it 'til you make it" experts, Colleen O’Dea and Alix Robinson, as they discuss and analyze the ups and downs of feeling like frauds while navigating through their professional and personal lives!

On this episode of Imposter Sisters we chat with fellow podcaster Jess Clerk about her “Year of Confidence” project, its impact on her journey, and how she transformed into the ultimate hype girl.

Inspired by Shonda Rhimes's "Year of Yes", Jess created the "Year of Confidence" project to try new things, find who she was... what made her Jess. When the year was up, she realized she wasn't done and with everything she'd learned in that 365 days... she simply kept on going with the solid knowledge that she no longer needed to be perfect... and had so much to share. 

As she gathered women around her, Jess built an online community, "Selfish Sisterhood", that has grown to include both events and retreats. In fact, if you're on a journey to embrace your authentic self and connect with incredible people, check out the two-day "Speak Up!" conference happening early October in Halifax.

We chatted with Jess about her 10-10-10 theory, ditching being perfect, boosting others up, helping and serving like-minded women, being broken, meditating, breathwork, realizing you aren't alone, authenticity, and more. 

Jess Clerk exudes LOVE. She's bright, lively, warm, kind... and makes you feel ABSOLUTELY AMAZING by simply being in her light. 

**********
The Imposter Sisters are truly thrilled to have Jess in our circle and look forward to collaborating together soon!

Ann-Marie Flinn is an Empowerment Coach working with women and organizations around mindset, performance, and well-being to create a “champion mindset”! 

We chatted about Ann-Marie’s struggles with Imposter Syndrome, how she often “plays the small game”, how we so often compare ourselves to others, our fears of judgement, our backgrounds and how those backgrounds affect so many of our choices in our lives, dealing with perfectionism… PLUS, tips for pushing ourselves through our negative feelings while working to not own the responses of other people. 

Just one of the interesting topics in this episode is all around “assumption”… how we assume things about others and they assume things about us.

Ann-Marie is a wealth of information helping us understand some of the reasons why we are who we are... recognizing our feelings, processing them, and using the various tools to discover the champion in each one of us!
