On imposter syndrome
When your soul is dying to teach about a topic but you don’t feel credible to teach, here’s what what I’d do…
Yup, I’ve been there with imposter syndrome.
When a part of my brain wants to create content around marketing & business but then another part is yelling me that I am not a millionaire, so I am not credible yet etc.
Just like that you may find yourself restricting your expression and holding yourself back in your content creation because a part of you feels like you are a fraud
Like you haven’t embodied well enough
Manifested enough
Made enough money/followers etc.
Which then leads to a Half-a$$ed showing up:
Thus preventing us from creating our most prolific content, and serving people through our fullest power
And here’s what I did to get around that:
1). Talk about what you HAVE done
Imposter syndrome happens when you are trying to get further than where you are now
And trying to teach things you have Not done.
You can be selling everyday and telling others how you can help them get somewhere
but if you haven’t done it yourself, no amount of pitching and selling will make you feel authentic and clean inside
And people can sense the smell of ‘faking it’
So what I do in my case,
is I share all things I have overcome.
how I approach and I am approaching life/business
And when you finally own where you are now and teach from there, More results happen. In your clients’ lives + your business.
2). Share your theories like a superstar
One of the biggest lessons I’ve learned around content creation is that
it is NOT what you have acquired/manifested that makes your soul-aligned clients work with you
Rather, it is your values, your philosophy, your theory
This is especially true in today’s world that is rife with people flexing things to sell you programs/things left and right
We are tired of being flexed to and sold to (at least me and I know my soul-clients are too)
But instead it is the deeper wisdom that is more attractive
For example, one of my fav people in business Alex Hormozi, resonates with me NOT because he has made 100 millions+
But because his deeper values such as “give, give, give, until they ask” (regarding content and selling), having patience to build businesses for long term instead of trying to make quick money etc.
Which I find to be rare in the business world
And my point is, it is those that values are s3xy. In fact s3xier than showing off what you have via your content.
So when you have your inner imposter knocking at the door next time,
Tell her:
“It is your values that’re s3xy. Not what you have nor who you think you are”
