Description

Do you ever feel like a fraud, despite your achievements, or worry you'll be "found out" as not as competent as others think?


In this episode, Sonja tackles the insidious challenge of Imposter Syndrome, a common struggle for entrepreneurs. She dives deep into what this pervasive feeling is, why it haunts so many, and powerfully reframes the journey of those building businesses while working full-time, declaring them strategic visionaries rather than imposters.


You'll learn:



  • What Imposter Syndrome truly is and the common reasons why entrepreneurs, at all stages, experience it.

  • Why feelings of inadequacy can arise, especially for those balancing a full-time job with building their business.

  • The critical importance of acknowledging your genuine achievements to ground your self-perception.

  • How to reframe failures and mistakes as essential opportunities for growth and learning.

  • The liberating power of sharing your doubts with a supportive community or mentor.

  • The freedom that comes with embracing progress over perfection in your entrepreneurial journey.


Get ready to:



  • Understand and conquer the nagging voice of your inner critic.

  • Build undeniable evidence of your competence and expertise.

  • Transform setbacks into fuel for your next breakthroughs.

  • Connect with a tribe that validates your experiences and strengths.

  • Step into your role as the confident, capable CEO you truly are.


F.A.B. ASSIGNMENT (Fierce Action Breakthrough)!


Actively build your "Brag Board" and use it to challenge your inner critic.



  1. Create Your Board: List at least 10 achievements in your business (digital or physical).

  2. Face the Critic: The next time self-doubt creeps in, immediately refer to your Brag Board and read your accomplishments aloud.

  3. Journal the Shift: Take 2 minutes to write down how your feelings or perspective shifted after reviewing your board. Make this a consistent habit!
