Ep 339 show notes are here: https://www.merrittonsa.com/podcast/339
Have you ever had an idea but you shut it down before it even had a chance?
Maybe you think to yourself, “Someone else is already doing this,” or “What if no one’s interested?” or “Maybe later, when I’m more experienced.” That hesitation? That voice of doubt? It might be imposter syndrome.
In this episode, we take a deeper look at the subtle ways imposter syndrome keeps you stuck. It’s not always loud or obvious. Often, it masquerades as fear, hesitation, or “just being realistic.” But if left unchecked, it will silence your God-given calling before you even begin.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
🕵️ The hidden ways imposter syndrome shows up when you're about to step into your calling
🚫 Why trying to believe you are enough doesn’t actually help—and what will
🧬 How imposter syndrome attacks your identity at the root
If you’re tired of spinning in the cycle of idea → doubt → shut down → repeat, this episode will help you name what’s really going on so you can finally do something about it.
If finding a better way to tackle imposter syndrome would help you move forward, my course Dreamers Unleashed is for you. It'll help you overcome perfectionism, imposter syndrome, and fear so you can walk in your God-given identity and purpose. It’s coming later this month and you don’t want to miss it!
