169 || [Solo] What Is Imposter Syndrome and How to Know If You Have It || Merritt Onsa
Manage episode 273308460 series 1128477
What keeps you from pursuing your God-shaped dream? Have you struggled with that voice in your head that says you are not enough or regularly poses the question “Who am I to do this?”
The Oxford Dictionary defines imposter syndrome as the persistent inability to believe that one's success is deserved or has been legitimately achieved as a result of one's own efforts or skills.
When I first heard the term imposter syndrome I was totally confused, I didn’t understand what this was about, why people were talking about it, and even if I should be concerned about this “malady” impacting my life.
The more I learned about imposter syndrome the more I began to understand this sneaky voice that had been a part of my thinking for years and years. It was the worry that even if I was incredibly passionate about a pursuit (let’s call it a dream) that I had “no business” doing it because I was a newbie to the cause.
"I mean, others were passionate about this before I was. I’ve probably missed the boat. Everyone’s heard everything there is to hear on this topic. What new thing would I have to add to the conversation?"
These thoughts and feelings kept me in hiding and feeling insecure about what I had to offer for way, way too long.
Can you relate?
If so, this is the episode for you!
I have a vision for God’s women to not just battle imposter syndrome but to beat it once and for all, to live in freedom, and to fight back against these lies from the enemy.
