Ever feel like you’re “not good with money” or one day someone will realise you don’t deserve your success? In this episode on imposter syndrome and money, Erin Davis, host of The Erin Davis Show, sits down with Alison Shami, an imposter syndrome expert and author of Conquer Your Impostor, to unpack what imposter syndrome really is - and why it can sabotage your income, pricing, investing decisions and salary negotiations. Alison explains how imposter syndrome is rooted in the stories we tell ourselves, why self-worth isn’t a “group decision” and how to start rewiring your inner narrative using evidence-based statements (not fluffy affirmations).

👀 In this episode, Erin covers:
✅ What imposter syndrome actually is (and what it isn’t)
✅ Why it can block pay rises, pricing, promotions and investing
✅ A practical way to rewrite the “I’m not worthy” money story

The definition that matters: imposter syndrome is believing you’re a fraud despite evidence of competence and success.

Where it comes from: often an “origin story” from earlier life though sometimes later, plus identity shifts and environmental triggers.

The money impact: hesitation to negotiate, raise rates, seek financial support, or invest confidently.

The self-worth foundation: how self-worth, self-esteem and self-confidence are different and why you need self-worth first.

A first-step tool: creating an evidence-based statement to interrupt the imposter narrative and change behaviour.
