And today, she's here to help us explore what it really takes to stop thinking like an impostor and start leading with authentic confidence.   So, what does it mean to reframe your thoughts and have an 'imposter moment' instead of an 'imposter life'?

In this solo episode, Alexa dives into the common struggles of imposter syndrome, low confidence, and feeling overwhelmed that many singing teachers face. As an experienced voice instructor and singer herself, Alexa shares personal stories and insights on managing these challenges in your teaching career and life. Learn how to overcome negative self-talk, build your confidence both in and out of the studio, and avoid burnout through self-care and planning.  KEY TAKEAWAYS Imposter syndrome, low confidence, and overwhelm are common among singing teachers. Imposter thoughts prevail due to isolation, comparison, and teaching observations. These feelings stem from self-doubt, fear of judgement, and perfectionism. Strategies like reframing thoughts and celebrating achievements can counter imposter syndrome. Perspective-taking and building a support network are beneficial. Despite accomplishments, imposter syndrome affects individuals across fields, emphasising the importance of sharing experiences for community support. You can build a support network by joining online communities and forums, attending conferences, and seeking mentorship. Forming mastermind groups, scheduling catch-ups, and following inspirational accounts on social media offer additional support. Investing in a coach and being open with students about imposter feelings can also aid in managing challenges. BEST MOMENTS  "100% of them reported having felt imposter syndrome, low confidence and overwhelm." "The most common intrusive thoughts reported include 'Just quit. You don't know enough' and 'You don't have the skills.'"   "Sometimes, I am completely overwhelmed by the amount of information and responsibility I'm faced with as a singing teacher."   EPISODE RESOURCES  Guest Website: www.aterryvocalcoaching.com  Social Media: Instagram: @AlexaTerryVocalCoaching Facebook: @ATerryVocalCoaching  Relevant Links & Mentions:  Vocology in Practice The Imposter Phenomenon in High Achieving Women: Dynamics and Therapeutic Intervention by Dr Pauline R Clance & Dr Suzanne A Imes (1978) Man and Superman by George Bernard Shaw (1903) (Blog) Singing and the Premenstrual Voice (Podcast) Singing Teachers Talk - Ep.102 Understanding Singing and Menopause with Joanne Bozeman  Psychologist Lev Vygotsky (The Zone of Proximal Development & ‘Scaffolding')  The Secret Thoughts of Successful Women by Valerie Young (Youtube) TED Talk by Valerie Young (2017) Tommy Ludgate: https://tommyludgate.com/ (Podcast) Singing Teachers Talk - Ep.49 Unlocking Your Creative Potential with Tommy Ludgate  (Podcast) Singing Teachers Talk - Ep.151 How to Sing with Twang with Kerrie Obert (Podcast) Singing Teachers Talk - Ep. 133 Mastering Belt in Musical Theatre with Amanda Flynn Steven Bartlett & The Diary of a CEO John Henny: https://johnhenny.com/ Voice Study Centre: voicestudycentre.com Adam Grant: https://adamgrant.net/ The 6-minute Success Journal (Podcast) Singing Teachers Talk - Ep.147 TV Coach: Behind the Scenes on ITV's Mamma Mia with Claire Delaney  alexa@basttraining.com BAST Book A Call   ABOUT THE GUEST  After graduating with a BA Musical Theatre degree, Alexa Terry donned her sailor's cap and performed as a lead soloist on cruise ships travelling the Mediterranean, Caribbean and Baltic seas.

In EP26 the EQ Gents dig into a well-known inhibitor for many aspiring leaders looking to propel their careers.  The term, known as ‘Imposter Syndrome' or ‘Imposterism', was first identified by psychologists Pauline Rose Clance and Suzanne Imes in 1978, to describe a pattern where individuals doubt their accomplishments and harbor a persistent fear of being exposed as a "fraud."  The term was further popularized by Dr. Valerie Young's book in 1980 called, The Secret Thoughts of Successful Women, wherein Dr. Young identifies 5 archetypes of ‘Imposter Syndrome' commonly seen in females in the workforce.  More recent research has led to the conclusion that males also suffer from ‘Imposter Syndrome' to the same degree as females. In this episode, our co-hosts will take a deep dive into Imposter Syndrome, specifically how it shows up and detrimental impacts unchecked Imposter Syndrome can have on one's mental health and career performance.  No doubt, the EQ Gents have had their own personal battles with Imposter Syndrome which they share throughout this enlightening episode.   Topics: 1)     Explaining the origin story of ‘Imposter Syndrome' and how it became widely known as a career killer. 2)    The common signs and symptoms one should look out for to determine if they are being plageud by Imposter Syndrome.3)    The five (5) archetypes of Imposter Syndrome 4)    Strategies the EQ Gents have personally employed to get through their own struggles with Imposter Syndrome over the years. Also make sure to check out our host Ismail Qadry's personal Imposter Syndrome Survival Guide, with helpful tips and tricks to overcome your Imposter Syndrome.  Click this link to access: https://eq.ismailqadry.com/Link to Dr. Valerie Young's Book - The Secret Thoughts of Successful Women - https://www.amazon.com/Secret-Thoughts-Successful-Women-Impostor/dp/0307452719Feel free to send us an email at info@emotionalintelligents.com and share your thoughts or visit us at https://linktr.ee/emotionalintelligents

Igalia's Brian Kardell and Eric Meyer chat with colleague Valerie Young about Co-Ops

Ever felt like a fraud despite your accomplishments? Do you tend to attribute your success to luck rather than your abilities? This episode is for you. We're diving deep into the intriguing world of imposter syndrome, guided by the remarkable work of Dr. Valerie Young - the world's foremost expert on this topic. By shedding light on the five distinct types of imposter syndrome - Natural Genius, Superhero, Soloist, Perfectionist, and Expert - we aim to help you recognize its presence in your life and equip you with the tools to break the cycle.The superhero and soloist types are particularly fascinating. Superheroes are workaholics who derive their sense of self-worth from their productivity. Soloists, on the other hand, feel they must accomplish tasks independently, fearing that seeking help would expose them as a fraud. We discuss the importance of setting boundaries, fostering self-validation, and finding joy in pursuits outside work, providing practical strategies for both types to overcome these self-imposed limitations.Lastly, we take a hard look at perfectionism, a trait common to many grappling with imposter syndrome. Perfectionists set impossibly high standards and view any failure as a personal failing, which in turn fuels their sense of fraudulence. However, identifying triggers, embracing imperfection, and adopting self-kindness can make a significant difference. We close the episode with a thoughtful discussion on these strategies, aiming to inspire you to approach your personal and professional life with more grace and less guilt. Tune in, let's talk about embracing our imperfections and owning our success.If you're looking to move your career or life forward, join us in Next Level, my monthly membership where we deal with mindset mastery and action planning.

Specifically, Whitney recounts her recent experience with perfectionism, anxiety, and self-care. And a word of warning, Dr. Google is not our friend. Recalling our conversation in Episode 3 on imposter syndrome and identifying Dr. Valerie Young's five types of imposter syndrome, Whitney finds herself living squarely within "perfectionist" one day, and "super human" the next. A reality experienced by many, and especially by Black women, and a reality that in this case led Whitney to experience persistent physical manifestations of underlying mental stress and anxiety. In hindsight, Whitney sees how her anxiety spiral developed and shares perspective on red flags that were present for her.Grateful for the strong community of support that she has built around her, Whitney called on all of her resources to identify what she was experiencing, to calm her anxieties, and to establish a short term plan of self-care moving forward. Whitney shares how through this experience, she has a better understanding of how anxiety shows up for her and what physical signs of anxiety she experiences. She also walks listeners through her process of exploring and identifying sustainable self-care rituals to alleviate stress and care for her mental wellbeing.

We can feel like a fraud or fear that someone will “find us out” despite real concrete evidence that we should be confident in our ability, our future, and ourselves. In this episode, we talk about The Imposter Syndrome and what you should do when you doubt yourself and your ability.  Quote of the Week: Dr. Valerie Young said, “I think at the core of so much of these impostor feelings is these unrealistic, unsustainable expectations that we have for ourselves.”  This Week's Power Phrase: “I choose confidence today.” 

Imposter thoughts stop so many impactful entrepreneurs and executives from getting visible and building their thought leadership – especially on a platform like LinkedIn.But the most effective and long-lasting way to build trust and community as an expertise-based small business is to SHARE that expertise publicly, imperfectly, clearly, and proudly!In this solo episode, I outline Dr. Valerie Young's five flavors of imposter thoughts and how they specifically show up for mission-driven humans building their thought leadership brand.  More importantly, I share actionable reframes you can practice to build new thoughts in the moment and serve your people in a deeper way.“Showing up with love and positive intention is enough, because the reader, the ideal client, the beloved human being I am trying to reach does not need me to be perfect, they need me to be ME.  That's all I can give to them, and that is enough.”To read a full transcript of the episode, visit: LUMOS MARKETINGResources from this episode:Get on the Thought Leadership Clarity Course Waitlist - I'll send you the first episode for free on June 1.

The phrase imposter syndrome has increasingly crept into the culture. If you haven't heard of it, it basically means that you feel like you're a fraud, despite evidence to the contrary. As this term has gained more purchase in our culture, it's also been subjected to an increasing amount of scrutiny and criticism, and also confusion. So, today we're going to try to cut through some of that with Dr. Valerie Young, who's been an internationally recognized expert on imposter syndrome since 1982.Young is the co-founder of the Imposter Syndrome Institute. She wrote a book called, The Secret Thoughts of Successful Women: Why Capable People Suffer from the Impostor Syndrome and How to Thrive in Spite of It. As you'll hear her explain, imposter syndrome is not just for women — men deal with it, too, as do many other people along the gender spectrum.This is the second installment of our ongoing work/life series.In this episode we talk about:The three things that define impostor syndrome Dr. Young's contention that imposter syndrome impacts both men and women, but tends to hold women back moreWhat it means to shift from impostor thinking to thinking like “a humble realist”Why we need to learn to reframe competenceWhether or not impostor syndrome is limited to the professional sphereThe impact of identity/social group Three tools for dealing with imposter feelingsWhether or not imposter feelings ever go awayWhat to do if you're in a relationship with someone with imposter syndromeAnd whether there are any upsides to imposter syndromeFull Shownotes: https://www.tenpercent.com/podcast-episode/valerie-young-574 See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

With Dr. Valerie Young, Co-Founder of Imposter Syndrome Institute   Are you familiar with the term Imposter Syndrome? It's cropping up all over the media these days. But what does it really mean and who is most likely to experience it? More importantly, are there ways we can overcome it?    It's not unusual for women (and men) to suffer from occasional feelings of self-doubt, especially if we're tackling new challenges or doing something for the first time. But all too often, as women, we may fall into the trap of believing we need to be perfect. But trying to live up to our own impossibly high standards may actually be sabotaging our chance for success. Going through life feeling like a fraud and fearing the stigma of exposure is an emotionally exhausting and unsustainable way to live. But it doesn't have to be that way.   If feelings of self-doubt are interfering with your day-to-day life because you truly believe you're less qualified, talented, or intelligent than others think you are, then you may be suffering from “Imposter Syndrome.”   If you want to learn how to overcome the negative beliefs and feelings that may be creating barriers to your success, you'll want to listen to my interview with Dr. Valerie Young, the Co-founder of Imposter Syndrome Institute. After obtaining her doctorate from the University of Massachusetts, where she studied internal barriers to women's occupational achievements, she worked in corporate management for a Fortune 200 Company. Today, recognized as one of the foremost experts in treating Imposter Syndrome, Valerie is uniquely qualified to counsel other women on how to recognize the signs and overcome the feelings associated with this syndrome.   What You'll Hear in This Episode: What exactly is imposter syndrome? How our family messaging and upbringing affect whether or not we experience imposter syndrome. Why are so many of the obstacles women face in achieving success, “internal”? How we tend to conflate competence and confidence. What are some of the symptoms of imposter syndrome? Dr. Valerie talks about what drew her to the field and her passion for understanding why so many capable women suffer from imposter syndrome. What does The Impostor Syndrome do and who are the type of people they work with? How can people move through their imposter syndrome and have the confidence to go after what they want? Why does talking to ourselves in a positive manner matter? How can we build up more confidence? Everyone loses when bright people play small.   Today's Takeaway: Almost everyone suffers from self-doubt on occasion but if you frequently struggle with the belief that you're less talented, competent, or qualified than others believe you are, you could have Imposter Syndrome. By constantly questioning your abilities, you may actually set yourself up for failure based on your unrealistic self-defeating expectations.   Asking for help to overcome the shame and stigma that could be  preventing you from achieving the kind of success you desire isn't a sign of  weakness or incompetence. Instead, it's the first step toward healing. If you  are seeking to overcome these negative self-defeating thoughts,  Imposter Syndrome Institute may be able to help.   For example, instead of telling yourself you're not deserving of a particular job, you can learn to believe you've been given this role for a  reason and that you are the best and most qualified individual. You can learn  when you don't know something, how to recruit someone who does have the  information or the ability and with their help, you can both succeed. Remember every day is a gift and the gift we get from believing in ourselves and knowing when to reach out to others and ask for their assistance is  not a sign of weakness but a sign you're already on the path to success.  I'm Florine Mark and that's “Today's Takeaway.   Quotes: “In my experience, there are men who painfully experience impostor feelings, but I find it tends to hold women back more.” — Dr. Valerie “We tend to conflate competence and confidence.” — Dr. Valerie “If you belong to any group for whom there are stereotypes about competence or intelligence, you're going to be more susceptible to impostor feelings.” — Dr. Valerie “If I'm going to overlook your 30% I want you to overlook my 30%.” — Florine “What if we spent as much time focusing on both feeling more confident, but also projecting it even when we don't feel it?” — Dr. Valerie “The more positive you feel, the more confidence you're going to have.” — Florine “The key is to not wait until you feel confident. Feelings are the last to change; you have to change your thoughts first and then your behaviors.” — Florine “Who do you think you are to not go for it?” — Florine   Brought to You By: Florine Mark   Mentioned in This Episode: Impostor Syndrome Institute  

This week, Christie sits down with Angela Kerrigan to examine impostor syndrome through the lens of racial identity and chat about ways to challenge these feelings of inadequacy. They discuss how stereotypes and microaggressions keep people of color in cycles of self-doubt by questioning their belonging or imposing unrealistic standards. Angela shares how she worked through her own feelings of impostor syndrome, and how she's seen the power of community in dissipating these thoughts. They also talk about how rest can be a radical act in challenging our thoughts about productivity, but also the systems of oppression that have seeded our impostor syndrome in the first place.Angela Kerrigan (she/her) is a therapist in private practice working with clients in NY and TX. She also helps other therapists manage and overcome their own imposter syndrome. Angela loves helping fellow Asian Americans really step into themselves and figure out what it means to live authentically.
