Impostor Syndrome Coaching
What is Impostor Syndrome?
Does this sound familiar? You are high-achieving, capable, trusted and on paper, you are crushing it. But internally, there is a quiet, nagging voice telling you that you don’t belong in the room.
Impostor Syndrome is the persistent inability to believe that your success is deserved or has been legitimately achieved as a result of your efforts or skills.
It’s the fear that at any moment, the people around you will realise you aren't as smart, talented, or capable as they think you are. It can lead to overworking, perfectionism or procrastination. Impostor syndrome can have you thinking every mistake is a catastrophe and every success is "just luck."
You’re not alone. 71% of CEOs and 65% of senior executives report feeling this way - despite their professional success.
It’s time to own your success
Overcoming Impostor Syndrome isn't about "faking it until you make it." It is about fundamentally changing your relationship with your own success.
In our coaching partnership, we move through a proven framework:
Make Sense of the Doubt: We start by looking at why you’re experiencing impostor feelings despite your track record. We’ll pinpoint exactly which situations, people, or environments trigger these feelings and where they come from, so we can break the cycle.
Trust Your Talent: Instead of working harder to prove you belong, we’ll work on believing you belong. We will use concrete tools to help retrain your brain so you can stop the self-doubt spiral and be confident in your capabilities.
Design Your New Normal: We’ll focus on who you want to be when you aren’t weighed down by impostor feelings and develop a plan to help you show up with confidence and authenticity and maintain your new approach.
Change starts here
Imagine sitting in an important meeting and not worrying about how you’re being perceived or whether you did enough prep. Imagine accepting a compliment and actually believing it, rather than thinking about the things you could have done better.
Let’s see if we are a good fit to make this change together.
