#028 - DEMO - Dissolving impostor syndrome

Get Clarity with Jamie Smart

This episode is a brief coaching demo. In fact it got turned around in under 7 minutes. Basically, a few weeks ago I did a coaching demo with one of my clients, Mary, around what she described as ‘impostor syndrome’. She told me that whenever she started to make progress, she’d get to a certain point, then fall back. She wanted to be able to ‘put herself out there’… She wanted to be able to charge fees that would be rewarding… She wanted to be excited about what she was doing, and feel unstoppable… But she felt like an impostor, and it kept stopping her. We did the coaching demo, and in less than 7 minutes, it had shifted for her. How? She had an insight - a realisation - and everything started to change. By the way, Mary is one of the students on my 12-week, 90-day coaching immersion which is starting this month, and it’s all about having a breakthrough this year. And this is the very LAST time I’m ever running my 12-week programme. So the question I’ve been asking people is this: What's the number 1 breakthrough you could have by the end of this year that you believe would have the biggest positive impact in your life / work / practice (whatever aspect of your world makes sense to you to focus on)? Maybe it's a goal you want to achieve, or a change you want to make. Perhaps it's a problem you want to solve, or something you want to start doing (or even stop doing)... So examples of tangible breakthroughs might include doing a principles-based presentation / enrolling a client on a ‘high-value package’ / creating your career transition plan / handing in your notice / running your first intensive / starting a new job / getting clients for your coaching or consulting practice / running principles workshops / moving from employment to doing your own thing, but could also include breakthroughs in health / relationships / wellbeing etc) So you might like to ponder on that question for yourself: What's the number 1 breakthrough you could have by the end of this year that you believe would have the biggest positive impact in your life / work / practice? So because this is the last time I’m running it, we’re doing something a little different: We’re running our 3 most popular courses in their original 12-week format for one last time… … three programme tracks … one group of like-minded people … and a whole set of massive transformational breakthroughs by the end of the year Now the 3 programme tracks are the thriving coaches blueprint, the career transition blueprint, and clarity for personal transformation. I’ve recorded a short, 3-minute video explaining how it’s going to work and what to do if you think it might be a good fit for you. You can watch that video at www.ClarityAcademy.co/immersion I’d love to help you answer the ‘number 1 breakthrough’ for yourself, and see you make it into a reality.
