This episode summarises my latest blog, 'Stop Fighting Your Imposter' .

I share 5 tips to stop fighting your imposter self, to enable you to gift yourself kindness.

When I started exploring this topic with a client, I gained an understanding that the common societal belief is that Imposter Syndrome is a silent saboteur of success and mental well-being.

In my therapeutic experience, this is not true.

I have reflected, read textbooks, and consulted peers. My mindset landed at the following — that your imposter is ‘part’ of you that drives your personality’s natural defences.

Let me reassure you that we all have an imposter part.

So often we resent this part without understanding its function — this part of you is trying to keep you safe.

Your IMPOSTER incorporates those parts that involve self-doubt, fear of failure, perfectionism, discounting praise, and even overworking.
