Description

In her first solo episode, Ruth dives into the all-too-common yet rarely discussed experience of imposter syndrome. She shares her own struggles with feeling like a fraud and explores how this mindset can affect our confidence, success, and willingness to step outside our comfort zones.

Ruth also breaks down the five types of imposter syndrome and discusses the common triggers that can bring these feelings to the surface—whether in business, career, or everyday life.

What You'll Learn in This Episode:

1. What is Imposter Syndrome? – Understanding why we doubt ourselves, even with clear evidence of success.
2. The 5 Types of Imposter Syndrome:
   
   • The Perfectionist – Anything less than perfect feels like failure.
   • The Expert – Feeling unqualified unless you know everything.
   • The Soloist – Struggles with asking for help.
   • The Natural Genius – Believes success should come easily or it doesn’t count.
   • The Superwoman/Superman – Feels pressure to excel in all areas of life.
3. Common Triggers: Environmental factors, social pressure, transitions, perfectionism, and comparison.
4. How to Overcome It: Acknowledge the feeling, separate it from reality, and seek support from trusted peers and mentors.

Memorable Quotes:

• “Success isn’t about being perfect; it’s about being consistent.”
•  “You don’t have to know everything—you just have to start.”
•  “Confidence isn’t the absence of self-doubt; it’s taking action despite it.”
