When you’re doubting yourself as a professional: a conversation on imposter syndrome

If you work in mental health, healthcare, wellness, or management, do you ever find yourself asking:

Who am I to be doing this?

How am I supposed to help others when I’m struggling myself?

Do I even know what I’m doing here? 

Whether you’re new to your field or well-seasoned, there will likely be times when self-doubt interferes with your deeper intention to be of service. Mark Silver from Heart of Business invited me to a conversation on these questions quite a while ago now, and I haven’t had a chance to share it with you yet! Between his business coaching with self-employed folks and the consultation and counseling work I do, we found a lot of resonance in the way we understand imposter syndrome.

If you decide to listen (just click on the image below), you’ll also receive a subscription to my newsletter. I don’t email often, only when I have a reflection or an offering to share. I know we are all bombarded with AI marketing these days, and I just want you to know how important it is to me, as a healing professional, to respect your capacity. So I only share what feels like it might help in some way. I hope this audio below brings some perspective and supports you in trusting yourself as you navigate helping others too.

Thank you for all you do,
