Today’s episode will be about the why, how, and what concept of the book, Start with Why: How Great Leaders Inspire Everyone to Take Action by Simon Sinek. Ann will share how she applied that concept to her life and how it has impacted her decisions. Ann’s goal for this podcast is to inspire you to create your why’s that will inspire you.

Ann will also share three action steps you can take to figure out why you do the things you do and whether it aligns with your values. Knowing your purpose, values, and why’s is one of the essential things that will help you achieve what you need to do in life. Ann talked about the imposter syndrome and its relation to self-worth in the first two episodes. So, after you learn to validate your self-worth intrinsically, then you can create goals that you want to achieve because you have a strong why. Listen in to learn more about this concept!

Key Points From This Episode:

• In this episode, Ann talks about three concentric circles – the why, how, and what concept from the book, Start with Why: How Great Leaders Inspire Everyone to Take Action by Simon Sinek.
• Many people have different why’s. It’s the first thing you have to figure out or establish.
• Knowing your why helps you live a life of authenticity.
• Living a life of authenticity means what you say and what you do reflects what you believe in.
• Once you have figured out your why, you go to your how, which is the process.
• The last circle is the what or the result of going through that process.
• There are three steps you can take to examine your why’s.
• Review your relationships and action steps or career paths that you have taken or any forward plans.
• Review anything you’re doing that you may or may not fully believe in or maybe something that you’ve lost your passion.
• Perform the celery test mentioned in the book to analyze if what you’re doing right now fully aligns with your values or your why.

In Episode 1, Ann explained imposter syndrome and shared a bit about how she experienced and went through it herself. For today’s episode, Ann will dive deeper into that topic as she takes us back to one unfortunate incident in her life as a doctor that had badly affected the way she felt about herself. For many years she carried that load of guilt that had caused the imposter syndrome to creep into her life.

However, Ann wouldn’t have pushed herself to learn more and become a better doctor if not for that incident. Listen now and find out how she was able to change her mindset. She’ll share tips and three action steps that could help you turn your negative experience into a positive and bring back that correct sense of self-worth in you. Ann believes that you have to go within to optimize your mental and physical health. Because everything you need is already within you now, it’s not rocket science!

Key Points From This Episode:

• Ann gives the reason why imposter syndrome plagues us.
• She shares why we shouldn’t be bothered when people interpret the same thing differently.
• It’s always okay to have some people who do not resonate with your message.
• Our goal is to have internal validation and not need others to feel that we’re enough.
• Step no.1 is to go back to the scenarios where you felt resistance and meditate on defining your self-worth.
• Step no. 2 is to compile a cookie jar list and look at it every time you feel the imposter syndrome.
• Step no. 3 is about mindset change and setting your intentions when you need to do something, and you’re worried that others might not like you or what you will do.
