Does any of this self-talk sound familiar?

"I shouldn't be mad at this."

"This isn't a big deal."

"I was just lucky."

What about ignoring your sense of hunger, thirst, or even the need to empty your bladder so you can get more done.

These are all incredibly common forms of self-invalidation, which is another way to say self-rejection.

On this week's podcast, we talk about all the sneaky ways self-invalidation shows up, why we've developed these habits, and how to start practicing self-validation instead.

This week I bring you the last episode in our "What's Possible Series," where you get to learn from my students, as I celebrate them, and let them serve as an example of what's possible for you.

Hearing these examples is important because without knowing what's possible for us, we usually let past failures, and other people's fears dictate our future and our potential.

But your past does not dictate who you will become. You and the choices you make today dictate your future.

Listen in and learn how you can overcome your habits of procrastination using something that may surprise you.

If you ever feel insecure, inadequate or like a fraud, I want you to know that it has NOTHING to do with you, or how capable you are.

In this podcast episode we'll explore the phenomenon of imposter syndrome and its impact on women. You'll learn:

• How to recognize the signs and behaviors in yourself, and

• Practical strategies to overcome it and thrive in your personal and professional life.

I sat down to create a podcast episode on imposter syndrome and realized that I couldn't simply talk about imposter syndrome without first addressing why it's so pervasive.

You see, impostor syndrome is intricately woven into the societal fabric of the patriarchy. Imposter syndrome happens when we internalize the inferiority brought on by the patriarchy and other systems of oppression.

But, we don't have to be victims of this.

In the next few episodes, we're going on a journey through history, society, and our personal experiences to understand the patriarchy's roots, its intersections with various identities, and most importantly, what we can do to not be victims of this, and instead break it down.

In Part 3 you'll learn:

• How challenging the patriarchy creates a more successful society for all genders.

• The link between gender equality and societal progress

• Small steps anyone can take to start to dismantle the patriarchy

• The role of men as allies in promoting gender equity
