This week I'm talking again with Vince Warnock.  Vince Warnock is an award-winning Business and Marketing Strategist, coach, author, and host of the Chasing the Insights podcast. 

An ex-radio announcer with over 20 years in marketing. Vince has been recognized by his peers with numerous awards including being named a Fearless50, a program designed by Adobe to recognize the top 50 marketers in the world who drive bold, fearless marketing and digital transformation.

We talk about:

• The mental health challenges that being an Entrepreneur presents
• Imposter Syndrome - that feeling like I don’t belong, I don’t deserve this, people will find out that I’m making up as I go along
• The common unhealthy view of success
• Learning that you aren’t alone - MANY highly successful people feel the same way
• How we self-sabotage, shut down and go dark
• The value of mentors and peers who call you out and support you
• Entrepreneurs should be out of our comfort zone 
• You don’t get success and prosperity in your comfort zone
• The discomfort you feel when out of your comfort zone is your brain’s way of telling you you are right where you need to be.
• When you are a “new” entrepreneur you don’t know what you don’t know (this is a bit of a blessing)
• Curiosity is an entrepreneur superpower
• The pivotal moment where he learned that by understanding others can transform your impact.
• How he learned his heroes were human and what that made possible
• All the best and most successful coaches and entrepreneurs have coaches - having support does not make you “less” 
• We need to reframe asking for help as a success
• and so much more!

Trina: So whew!, all right, this conversation is just amazing. I wanted to ask you. A couple of things we haven't gotten to either of the two things that we said we were going to talk about, but we talked to

Vince Warnock: them so much gold.

Yeah. As soon as you and I started talking, this is going to be like five hour long episode.

Trina: Ah, all right. So I want to pop in and talk about some of the mental health challenges that being an entrepreneur can present because and I know that one of them, which is a combination of mental health challenges is imposter syndrome.

And that's one of the things that I'm passionate about. And I know you are too , Vince.

Vince Warnock: Yeah, no, I always say imposter syndrome is my old, old friend. And yeah, for those. I'm pretty sure every entrepreneur [00:03:00 ] knows what imposter syndrome is, but every now and then you find some of the doesn't and it is just that feeling. Isn't it of, I don't belong here. I don't deserve what this is and people are gonna find out I'm a complete, and utter fraud. They're going to find out I'm making this up as they go along. And when you grow up in a family where you don't have role models, you don't have people like anybody. Basically, when I was a kid, anyone who had success was the enemy because my parents would look at anybody that had made money and go, well, they obviously don't deserve that money.

We do, but we never get the opportunity, which is a really unhealthy view around money and success and

Trina: things.

I think it is quite common.

Sadly, I think you're right. Yeah. But it was, it was really difficult growing up in there. And I had to break through that myself. And as a result, anytime that you succeed, you feel like you don't belong there.

I feel like I'm an imposter of these scenarios. And I remember early on I, I was I was quite young back in the day, as my son says, when it's black and white, you know? But I went to, I went to gets to this business breakfast and they had one of the heads of Adobe speaking, there, for Oceania [00:04:00 ] and, and he was going to be talking about his journey and how success comes, all this kind of stuff.

And I'm like, oh my goodness , first of all, I had no money. Right. I was real young businessperson. I had no money whatsoever. So I'm going somewhere with this free food and free drink. I'm like, yes, sign me up. I'm going to eat and drink everything, but also get to hear from this legend. And I'm like, right. So I knew if I'm going to this business breakfast I'm going to have to dress up.

I didn't own a suit. I, in fact, basically. Jeans or track pants and a t-shirt was pretty much all I ever owned. So I went down to a Goodwill shop
