EP019 | How to Remove Imposter Syndrome for Good, with Alison O’Leary

You can rewire your brain, for good
𝗧𝗛𝗜𝗦 𝗘𝗣𝗜𝗦𝗢𝗗𝗘 𝗜𝗡 𝗔 𝗡𝗨𝗧𝗦𝗛𝗘𝗟𝗟:
I tackle something that a lot of people really struggle with and that’s IMPOSTER SYNDROME.
If you suffer from:
…persistent self-doubt and second-guessing yourself
…feeling like a fraud (and afraid you’ll be found out soon)
…regularly questioning your intelligence or abilities
…a perpetual fear that you aren’t good enough
…or your daily lived experience involving relentless worry, anxiety and overthinking
Then this episode is for you.
Imposter Syndrome does nothing except get in the way of you fulfilling your true potential.
It stops you going after your personal and professional dreams (and it feels bloody awful to boot!)
So come and join me as I share insights, simple brain science, and tools to help you dissolve Imposter Syndrome once and for all (Yes, it can be done!!)
Sound good? Excellent. Click and listen in now.
𝗛𝗜𝗚𝗛𝗟𝗜𝗚𝗛𝗧𝗦:
In this episode I walk you through:
• What Imposter Syndrome is and looks like (so you can judge if it’s something you personally struggle with)
• The three categories of thoughts associated with Imposter Syndrome so you can see how it manifests for different people
• Why Imposter Syndrome isn’t something that you were born with and therefore stuck with (halleluiah to that!)
• The five brain science facts that explain how Imposter Syndrome is created and learned
• Really significantly, why and how you can un-learn Imposter Syndrome
• I walk you through a real-life client example, to showcase how their imposter syndrome was generated, and why it felt very real
Towards the end of the episode, I also give you an exercise to do for yourself, teaching you how to create new neural pathways in your brain and gradually remove your imposter syndrome once and for all (have a go! I’d love to know how it goes, so do drop me a DM on LinkedIn or email message afterwards).
ULTIMATELY, WHAT I’D LIKE YOU TO GET FROM THIS EPISODE:
Your brain’s plasticity means that you can actively and consciously use your mind to rewire it.
The very fact that your brain is malleable and changes with every new thought, experience, emotion and belief you have, means that you can reprogramme yourself to believe new things and see things differently.
You can train your brain to form and strengthen new neural pathways, and permanently change how you think about yourself.
So, this means you hold the key to genuinely dissolving negative thoughts and beliefs about yourself, and building stronger positive neural pathways that support you in being the happiest, most confident and best version of you, or at the very least, being at peace with yourself on a daily basis 💛
