All tagged imposter syndrome
Kabat-Zinn gently pointed me back to the thing I’d temporarily forgotten—despite a decade of preaching the same thing to high-performing anxious people: The healing paradox of non-striving.
The less you try to change your current inner experience, the faster you can actually do something about it.
The more you try to "fix" your emotions and beliefs, the stickier and trickier they get.
Feeling like a "fraud" is super normal, even for me. The more I coach subject matter experts and executive women, the more I see that imposter syndrome is never an indicator of actual competency but a hypnotic spell induced by a society steeped in bias against women and minorities. We can break the spell of this terribly boring hypnosis by co-opting its language. So there, I'm a "fraud."
The world -- and especially the workplace -- is built in favor of non-HSP’s, but your natural talents have profound value.
You’re the real deal with an incredible capacity to empathize, which builds trust and connection, the raw ingredients for great leadership.
