What is Imposter Syndrome?

Imposter syndrome is defined as a psychological pattern of one’s doubts about their life, accomplishments, and goals. Many people feel like frauds despite the evidence of their competence and success. It very often stems from the need for external validation through social media validation, community, workplace achievement, and entrepreneurial success.

Imposter Syndrome can lead to career, business and relationship problems. Imposter syndrome can also lead to self-destruction, anxiety, self-doubt, low self-esteem, and fear. Imposter syndrome also has a spiritual component, and it’s critical to recognize and practice spiritual self-renewal daily. There are several ways to overcome imposter syndrome and we will outline 5 critical ways in this episode of the holistic wealth podcast.

How To Overcome Imposter Syndrome
Here is a quick list of some strategies to help you overcome imposter syndrome (Listen to the full episode of the holistic wealth podcast):

  1. Become Self-Aware – Notice the mental, emotional physical symptoms that you feel as a result of imposter syndrome and what feelings of lack/unworthiness you feel (what causes it?)
  2. Heal Your Inner Child/Silence Your Inner Critic – Try to confront any childhood fears, and feelings of unworthiness.
  3. Be Intentional By Design – an intention represents a commitment to embracing your own authentic values and your own markers of success – which helps with overcoming imposter syndrome.
  4. Focus on Spiritual Self-Renewal – Regular and sustained mindfulness, prayer, and yoga has been shown to improve attentional control, increase awareness of internal and external experiences and reduce imposter syndrome.
  5. Embrace the Holistic Wealth Method – Think of all your decisions as either a depletion or an addition to your holistic wealth bank account – and focus on activities that enrich you.
  6. Positive Self-Talk – can stop the catastrophic mind chatter and negative self-talk that fuels and lights the fire of imposter syndrome.
  7. Find Your Purpose (Your Why) – You are uniquely made to manifest a certain purpose in life. Remember your “why” and embrace your mission and purpose (refocus and re-energize).
