Imposter Syndrome: End the Need to Prove Your Worth

Imposter Syndrome: End the Need to Prove Your Worth

If you’ve followed me a while, you will know that I’ve gone from not being able to climb the stairs to climbing Wainrights for fun, (well, sometimes fun – sometimes the hills are hell).

I burnt out and got ME from overdoing life and work. The overdoing came from not feeling good enough and the urge to prove my worth. But when is enough, enough? The bar just keeps rising.

This is an interactive episode. You’ll hear real-time audience scepticism and the changes they experience after applying the technique I share. They were fab, and they ask the questions you probably want answered about overcoming imposter syndrome.

What You Will Learn:
💡 The hidden childhood pattern that's making you overwork - and the 7-minute technique that can ‘erase’ it from your nervous system

💡 Why your brain keeps you trapped in the same stress cycle - and the neuroscience-backed method that creates lasting change in minutes, not 66 days (which is how long it takes the average person to change)

💡 The five imposter syndrome types sabotaging your success - discover which one is driving your burnout and how to stop the domino effect before it damages your health, happiness and wellbeing
Here’s to your leadership development and personal growth!
