It was ALL.my.fault I couldn’t get what works great for everyone else on Earth to work for me. Harder I tried, more crippled by perfectionism I became..

When are you going to stop falling for leadership “experts” who only want you to do EXACTLY what they did to have their “impact?”Impact that’s based in scarcity, desire for control and reinforcement of supremacy. No ethical Coach can teach a cookie cutter leadership strategy (i.e how to lead as a WOC) and expect it to be effective when it’s only focusing on surface level maneuvers 🥸disguised as “strategies” to sound more $ophisticated. We can be so quick to mimic what other successful leaders are doing. Especially when there’s nobody else like us at the top. If you wants a different way of expressing your leadership that isn't modeling the white cis-male dominance, listen to this. Want to get back 20 hours or more each week, starting this week?

Today I’m joined today by my client Margot Van’t Rood where she shares how her experience with coaching led to a deep internal self-generated safety and ability to take up space. You’ll hear her say “Now I feel that I am valuable. I have value and it's not dependent on what I do. I'm not valuable because I did the dishes and I cleaned the room and I did these things. I am valuable. Period. Full stop.”An internal sense of safety is built from recognizing your authentic power and trusting there is an unwavering well of support and guidance within you. It starts with honoring and appreciating your true authentic self, committing to the deep work and bravely accepting being in the now.I love how Margot describes some people's hesitation with coaching because we don't want anyone to know we  don’t have it all figured out but in reality, we all have unique yet similar experiences and it's all part of our humanness. Coaches are here to show you your blind spots and guide you to where you desire to grow.Through her own growth, Margot discovered that part of her work here in this lifetime is to help guide others to a life of simplicity and share her own journey of shedding all the things weighing her down.You'll absolutely love this conversation. It’s time to quiet the self-doubting voices in your head so that You too can feel empowered and find satisfying, simplified success. PS- In the intro I candidly shine a light on my ADHD and how these two episodes are a huge celebration. If you want to feel confident AF, I invite you to come work with me inside Imposter Syndrome Cure 1-1 coaching.

Today's episode is not only empowering, it's magical. You'll be hearing from my private client, Margot, as she shares her story of transformation. Even though she was hesitant about coaching she ultimately made the decision to "just go for it" and make the investment (3 times over!). She decided that she was done with scarcity thinking and by investing the resources to really change her life, she's learned how to think differently about her self.In her pursuit to elevate her thinking, you'll hear how Margot discovered her secret weapons, self compassion and acceptance. This is a candid conversation about transformation that's RIPE with all the details most people leave out like: what happens when you stop people pleasing and someone gets mad at you, how to feel safe spending large amounts of money, learning how to use your feelings to guide you and trusting your intuition even when your brain is SO LOUD and annoying. Listen in to hear precisely what happens when you decide to go ALL IN and start betting on yourself.If you want to feel confident AF, I invite you to come work with me inside Imposter Syndrome Cure 1-1 coaching.
