Masks Off: A Kandid Chat on Imposter Syndrome
I had the opportunity to have a kandid chat on the topic of imposter syndrome, a prevalent issue experienced by up to 82% of the population.
I was joined for this discussion by three incredible women who shared their insights and perspectives on the subject:
Kate Purmal, Business Intuitive and Author of “Composure: The Art of Executive Presence” & “The Moonshot Effect: Disrupting Business as Usual.”
Kim Gross, Life coach, Creator of the Five-Step Power Pathway, and Host of the "Masks Off" podcast.
Melissa Chureau, Mindfulness teacher, purpose and mindset coach, and Host of the "Fully Mindful" podcast.
Key Takeaways
* Imposter syndrome is real and can manifest differently based on the situation due to a spectrum of variations. - Kim Gross
* Highly confident people who are good at what they do can also experience imposter syndrome - Kate Purmal
* Trauma is a root cause of imposter syndrome, and it is triggered by fear and high alert - Kim Gross
* Imposter syndrome is systemic in work cultures, and it affects underrepresented populations, including BIPOC and LGBTQIA+. -Melissa Chureau
* To change imposter syndrome patterns, it is essential to be aware of them, own them, and take responsibility for changing them. -Kate Purmal
* Reparenting the inner child is essential for developing compassion and healing from self-doubt. -Melissa Chureau
* Personal boundaries are important to protect oneself from getting triggered and succumbing to imposter syndrome. - Kate Purmal
* Doing inner work, such as mindfulness and somatics, can be powerful and transformative to overcoming imposter syndrome. -Melissa Chureau
* Seek support from a therapist, coach, or support group to help along the path. -Kim Gross
By acknowledging our own accomplishments and abilities, and learning to accept and embrace our imperfections, we can overcome imposter syndrome and achieve our goals with confidence.

Author Spotlight: Afsenah Moradian: ”Jamie is Jamie”
In this episode, I am thrilled to shine a very special author spotlight on Afsaneh Moradian, Founder of MLC Homeschool Coaching and the Author of the beloved picture book series "Jamie is Jamie."
Key Takeaways ● The "Jamie is Jamie" series is about celebrating children as individuals and allowing them to be free to be themselves. ● Homeschooling should be the opposite of traditional schooling, which doesn't always meet the needs of every child. ● Homeschooling should be personalized and respect the needs of each child. ● Each families' homeschooling style is unique, and what works best for one may not work for another. ● Combining subjects into activities is a fun way to teach children, and it can be more effective than teaching subjects in isolation. ● Homeschooling parents need to be adaptable and flexible, especially with teenagers. ● An integrated approach to teaching, where different subjects are combined, is possible in a school environment through interdisciplinary project-based learning. ● Standardized testing has made public education skill-based, focusing on drilling kids to get them ready for the test, rather than fostering creativity and real interaction with the topics. ● It's important for adults to not put any limits or judgments on how kids want to play as long as it's safe and provide a safe space for kids to discover who they are.
