Manage episode 478393150 series 3487642
Welcome to this episode where I'm diving deep into a topic close to my heart: Imposter Syndrome. You know that feeling when you hit record and suddenly think, "Who am I to be doing this?" Trust me, you're not alone. It happens to all of us.
When I started out with over 160 episodes ago, I had those moments of doubt. "Will anyone even listen?"
What is Imposter Syndrome? It's that persistent feeling of self-doubt despite evident success. It's normal and happens when we care deeply about our craft.
Why It Happens? The more we care, the more doubt creeps in. Comparison to others' polished content can amplify this feeling.
How to Push Through It
- Remember Why You Started: Reconnect with your mission and impact.
- Rationalize: Focus on facts, not perceptions.
- Focus on One Listener: Your message matters more than flawless delivery.
- Keep Track of Wins: Positive feedback is your proof of impact.
- Everyone Feels This Way: Even top podcasters have faced imposter syndrome.
Closing Encouragement & Call to Action Your voice matters. Someone needs to hear what you have to say. Record your next episode without overthinking it. Trust me, someone needs to hear this.
