Overcoming The Imposter
Session Overview:
Have you ever felt like you didn’t really measure up to the assumptions that others have made about you? Do you wonder if your success may be the result of luck and timing, rather than your intelligence or hard work? Have you ever worried that at some point, everyone is going to figure out that you’re just making it up as you go, and figuring it out on-the-fly?
If so, you may have had a run-in with The Impostor, that inner critic that tries to convince you that your success isn’t real, and that you’re living a lie.
Kris Kelso will break down the mental battle of Impostor Syndrome, and give you the tools you need to silence your inner critic. With engaging stories and powerful metaphors, Kris will help you to see the world differently - embracing failure as part of success, recognizing fear as a positive sign, and leading with vulnerability when the stakes are high.
