The Truth About Imposter Syndrome (And Why Even the Most Successful Coaches Feel It)

You know those moments where everything looks great on paper, but inside…you’re spiraling with self-doubt, and questioning if you're actually cut out for this?

You're not alone. This happens to even the most experienced entrepreneurs (hiiii me, postpartum!)

In this week’s episode of Business Not As Usual, I’m joined by business and mindset coach Candy Motzek, host of the She Coaches Coaches podcast and former corporate exec turned coach for coaches. #saycoachagain 

And we’re diving deep into imposter syndrome, confidence-building, and how to actually enjoy the success you’ve worked so hard for.

We talk about:

• Why imposter syndrome is more than just "self-doubt" (and how to know the difference)
  
  

• How your past life in corporate or another industry holds the exact skills that make you a powerful coach
  
  

• The sneaky ways imposter syndrome slows your growth, and what to do about it
  
  

• Small-but-mighty mindset shifts that help you move forward (even when you're freaking out inside)
  
  

• How to start seeing your wins, even when they feel insignificant
  
  

This one’s packed with wisdom, quotes from Renee Zellweger and Sheryl Sandberg, and tangible tips you can start using today to shift how you show up in your business.

If you’ve ever thought, “Who am I to do this?”, this episode is your permission slip to go do the damn thing anyway.
