Stop Playing Small and Start Owning Your Expertise
Ready to finally ditch that nagging imposter syndrome that's keeping you playing small in your online course business? 🚀
If you've been holding back, undercharging, or stuck in an endless learning loop because you don't feel “expert enough,” this episode is your permission slip to step up. As course creators, we're often blazing our own trails, which naturally brings up those feelings of doubt and inadequacy. But what if I told you that feeling like a fraud isn't a sign you're unqualified – it's actually evidence that you're growing?
I'm sharing my own journey with imposter syndrome, from my early days as a sales coach when I felt like the biggest fraud on the planet, to how I've learned to dance with these feelings while scaling a 7-figure business. You'll discover why waiting until you feel “ready” is the biggest trap, and how to leverage your unique perspective as your greatest marketing advantage.
“Imposter syndrome is not evidence that you're unqualified. It's evidence that you're growing into something new, and there is never, ever shame in being on a growth journey.” ✨
🔥 In This Episode:
- Discover why feeling like an imposter is actually a sign you're on the right track (and why only sociopaths never feel it)
- Avoid the common pitfall of constantly seeking more qualifications instead of owning what you already know
- Identify the difference between internal belief and external evidence – and why you need both
- Leverage your unique perspective as your greatest marketing advantage instead of trying to be a carbon copy of your mentors
- Take practical steps to build confidence through action, even when you're feeling wobbly inside
Grab your favorite drink, find a quiet spot, and let's tackle that imposter voice together. This conversation might just be the breakthrough you need to finally step into your power as the expert you truly are! ☕️
