The Confident Mother

Helping ambitious women in technology manage their career with confidence and purpose

23rd November 2017

How to beat the imposter syndrome

Last year I let the imposter syndrome get the better of me in the Life Coach of the Year Awards. This year I didn’t. Discover what happened next.

Let me tell you what happened when I was shortlisted in The Coaching Academy International Coaching Awards; how I nearly talked myself out of it; and how I beat the imposter syndrome and submitted my portfolio.

On the night, I was gutted then delighted to make the Final 3 in the Life Coach of the Year Awards. (And I have a special offer to make to celebrate my win).

I share the questions you can ask yourself if you are experiencing a very noisy inner critic or you wonder if the imposter syndrome might be getting in your way.
