Last week I had to practise what I preach when it comes to Imposter Syndrome when I had a panic attack in the middle of Lake Windermere. I'd signed up for my Open Water Lifeguard qualification and felt like a total fraud. I was right in the middle of the lake, trying to keep up with the other swimmers, when I swallowed a load of water, which triggered a panic attack. This is the raw, authentic story of what happened to me... AND the EXACT steps I took to break free of my Imposter Syndrome. Did I pass my qualification? Listen to find out...

We all know how important it is to be visible when you’re running a business. We know how vital a personal brand is, and the importance of credibility. But it can feel excruciating showing your face, even when you know you should. It can feel terrifying speaking out and using your voice, even though you’re really passionate about the thing. It can be paralysing to try to take the big, bold moves you really want to, but are petrified of messing up. Today I want to talk about how to shift your thinking about this topic, so you not only do the thing, but it feels great when you do it. This is a powerful conversation that has the potential to completely reframe how you show up.

Everybody I’m speaking to seems to be overwhelmed right now. Overwhelmed, burnt out, too many tabs open. Part of it is the time of year, school admin seems to be off the charts at the moment, and the looming school holidays throwing everything into disarray. And even if you don’t have kids, there is a LOT going on – the election, the Euros, July being a nightmare to schedule anything, clients cancelling, the algorithm on here going bonkers. So many people I’m speaking to are feeling frazzled, and a lot of fear about how business is going – it’s genuinely tough out there for a lot of people. You’d be forgiven for just pulling the duvet over your head and waiting until September when normal service resumes. In today’s conversation I’m going to teach you some vital stuff. Not only how to rise to the challenge and get everything done that you need to, but how to develop a bulletproof mindset so that whatever is going on externally, doesn’t even touch you. Sound good? Let’s go!
