056 Imposter Syndrome

In today's episode Kate talks about Imposter Syndrome and some suggestions on how to manage it. Here are some of the key takeaways from this episode:

• "The persistent inability to believe that one's success is deserved or has to be legitimately achieved as a result of ones own efforts or skills".
• Constant self doubt that "I am not good enough" or "I am going to get found out as not the brilliant person they think I am".
• Most women (and some men) experience this.
• Many very successful women have openly talked about Imposter Syndrome.
• Talking with others can help.
• How Imposter Syndrome causes self sabotage.
• Identify where the self-doubts stem from - What voice do you hear when listening to them.
• Give the inner voices a name - thank them and move on.
• Recognise and acknowledge your achievements.
