    Sweet soul, Impostor syndrome can show up for anxious high achieving women in so many ways, and I know, sweet soul, how frustrating, painful, and disempowering it can be. And if this is something that resonates with you, you are in for a treat - and some relief - with this episode, because I had the privilege of interviewing my teacher, coach, mentor and friend, Kim Garnett, AKA, Brainy Girl Kim.   Kim is the founder of Brainy Girl, and a technology and digital marketing specialist (since 2001) working with novice course creators to help them get visible, grow their audience, and get their courses online.  You can learn more about and connect with Kim at brainygirlu.com. Kim shares about how impostor syndrome shows up for people (think downplaying achievements, perfectionism, comparison… sound familiar?!), AND, she shares strategies she has successfully used to get her to the point where she can recognize and quickly move through impostor syndrome.  Kim's story is mind-blowing, and her presence and energy are simply incredible. Before you dive in, I want to give you a quick heads-up: this episode contains explicit language. If that's not your vibe, or if you have little ones around, now might be a good time to pop in some headphones or pick a different episode.
