EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS
- What is Imposter Syndrome?
- A feeling of self-doubt that your success has been legitimately earned or achieved through your own hard work - people who struggle with imposter syndrome cannot internalize/recognize their own success
- Imposter Syndrome usually leads to burnout, anxiety, and ultimately quitting
- It most commonly happens in small practices that experience rapid, successful growth - the owner is not used to such a large influx of money and feels they haven't put in enough hard work to have earned it
- How can you beat Imposter Syndrome?
- Celebrate your small wins
- Give yourself permission to sit down once a week/month and take a look at your numbers and budget to ensure you are on track, then give yourself a pat on the back when you've been successful!
- Don't be too hard on yourself to make a mistake! Mistakes can be fixed and you can always re-tackle the problem tomorrow from a different angle.
- Recognize and celebrate when you achieve milestones in your practice
