“Who the hell do you think you are?”

If you've ever asked yourself that before stepping into a role as a teacher, guide, or creator—you’re not alone.

In this episode of The Conscious Creator Podcast, I open up about the very real and often paralyzing experience of imposter syndrome, and how we can move through it—not by pretending it's not there, but by growing through it.

We’ll explore:

🌀 The 5 types of imposter syndrome—from the perfectionist to the superhuman (yes, you might be all of them).

🌀 Why being afraid to be seen is totally normal—and how to work with that fear instead of running from it.

🌀 How repetition and experience can shrink your inner critic over time.

🌀 Why some imposter syndrome is actually helpful feedback (and when it’s just noise).

🌀 How to stay grounded when the world throws judgment your way (including the occasional rough comment on Insight Timer).

Whether you’re just starting out or deep into your journey as a conscious creator, this talk is here to remind you:

You are not an imposter. You’re a real human with something to offer.

As a conscious creator, teacher, or entrepreneur, there comes a moment when you realize—you can’t do it all alone. Whether it’s the tech side of things, editing, admin work, or just staying organized, getting help can mean the difference between growth and burnout.

But hiring people isn’t always easy. Where do you start? Who do you trust? And how do you do it without breaking the bank?

In this episode of The Conscious Creator Podcast, I share:

🌀 Where to find help—why platforms like Upwork & Fiverr can be game-changers for solopreneurs.

🌀 The right way to hire—how to test out freelancers, delegate tasks, and avoid costly mistakes.

🌀 The biggest hiring lesson I’ve learned—why I always hire slowly & fire quickly to build the right team.

🌀 How I built a long-term team—including my assistant Jonah, who’s worked with me for over a decade.

🌀 Why you don’t need a big budget to start getting help—how to outsource small but essential tasks first.

If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by the sheer amount of work it takes to bring your vision to life, this episode is for you.

You don’t have to do it all alone—and learning to delegate wisely can be one of the most freeing steps on your journey.

I also have a virtual assistant firm for those of you looking for long-term consistent help growing.

It’s called Aligned Virtual Teams. Here’s the link:
