Halloween Special: Your Alter Ego and the Imposter
Halloween is just around the corner and as a nod to the holiday of costumes, I wanted to focus on Imposter syndrome, that pesky notion that we aren't good enough, aren't unique enough, or aren't qualified enough to do something. Often this imposter syndrome holds us back from taking risks or stepping into new challenges with confidence. On today's show, I talk about combating Imposter Syndrome by creating an Alter Ego. Using techniques and approaches from my own leadership work and Todd Herman's book, The Alter Ego Effect: The Power of Secret Identities to Transform Your Life, I explore what an alter ego is, how to create your alter ego, and how to use your alter ego to silence your inner critic.
