DESCRIPTION

Are you holding back from putting yourself out there and sharing your achievements because you fear being judged? Today, Jo & Vicky look at the real reasons behind self-doubt, imposter syndrome and a reluctance to self-promote, that holds so many business owners back. They explain how embracing your unique story and confidently sharing your wins inspires others while also accelerating the growth of your business. 

They share practical strategies that enabled them to overcome imposter syndrome and share what they knew. A move that enabled them to build their training businesses, create The Canine Business Academy, reach and help hundreds of people and win awards.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Sharing your achievements and what you offer is not about ego. It´s about serving your audience. If you say nothing, people never know there is a solution available for their problem.

Overcome imposter syndrome by recognizing your unique strengths and focusing on your purpose.

Be the bouncer of your own club. Define your audience – people you can genuinely help and work with effectively. Then, focus on attracting them. They will truly appreciate what you offer.

Be authentic and share your story, it builds trust.

It´s OK to turn people off. What you offer and how you work is not going to suit everyone. You are not a good fit - they don´t need you and you don´t need them.

If you don´t take what you do seriously other people won´t either. Your job is not a hobby.

Confidence comes naturally once you are clear about who you are, what you stand for and what you have to offer.

Personal development matters, it is the main fuel for your business growth. Without authenticity, confidence and overcoming imposter syndrome you can´t grow very fast.

Celebrating true wins, even if they are small ones, inspires both you and others.

BEST MOMENTS

“If something inside you will not shut the f**k up…  that needs to get out to the world, and it’s your job to do it.” 

“Everything comes back down to purpose. What do you want to achieve? Who do you want to help?”

“If you keep it a secret, which effectively is what a lot of you are doing… You’re doing those people out there that need you, your knowledge, and what you’ve got a disservice.”

“It's not that I'm a bigger person than you or a better person than you. It's just that I know who I am, and that's it.”
