Imposter Syndrome, What Is It? and Is It Time to Banish the F-Word?

I work with imposter syndrome on a daily basis. I find women always seem to underplay their achievements and shrink to make others comfortable, and in doing so, they forget to hold onto the evidence that they are capable and brilliant. In this article in The Belfast Telegraph, I was quoted discussing this in more detail:

Jessica Boston (jessicaboston.com), a cognitive hypnotherapist, says she meets clients every day who are battling feelings of failure. But she also nods to that all-important flip side the others speak of - that the biggest fear is often of success.

"We make ourselves small and find ourselves creating the outcome of our failure. Investigate if there is a reason why you're keeping yourself away from the thing you want" Boston agrees that how we talk to and about ourselves makes a big difference. "Even in a joke, negative self-talk all goes in and the unconscious is always listening. If you're calling yourself a failure, it'll look for evidence you're a failure and keep feeding you that evidence," she says.

In my signature 90-day programme, HOMECOMING, we look at absolutely everything in your life contributing to your current lack of confidence and how it might have become a hindrance to the successful life you dream about. In fact, we look at absolutely every area of your life to map out what action needs to take place. We make a subconscious life plan, and using my approach, we work through all that’s getting in your way both internally and externally so that you can finally start living the confident, fun, free and fulfilled life of your dreams.

Homecoming is the real deal, read the testimonials to see for yourself and if you’re ready to get started, take the quiz to begin the process to find out how radically different your life could be in 3 months’ time. Your Homecoming is waiting.
