Is your impostor syndrome holding you back from having the show you have always wanted in your business?
What if instead of seeing imposter syndrome as a negative, we looked at the feelings of impostor syndrome as a signal that we are growing and taking on new challenges.
The trick then becomes not to let imposter syndrome prevent us from taking the opportunities that are presented to us (or making those opportunities for ourselves).
So today I wanted to share with you some ways that you can first identify if you have imposter syndrome and then some ideas on how you start to battle those feelings so that you can keep growing and moving forward.
