Episode #80 Imposter Series Part 3: What is the Imposter Speech?

In episode 80 I am excited to share with you my transformational tool for turning your Imposter Syndrome into a strength. It helps you create instant courage, build lasting confidence and showcase your value so you never have to play small again.

I describe what it is and how it is different to the other solutions to Imposter Syndrome you may have come across, and how the process of creating it and repeatedly using it has helped me achieve goals I wouldn’t have conceived of or believed possible.

As well as explaining what it does, I talk you through the benefits of having an Imposter Speech™ always to hand. I then share the version of my Imposter Speech™ that helped me to write the book and is helping me to go all in on its success this year.
