The work that I’m privileged to do helps high performers realise their potential. High achievers have this tendency to overwork, to always want to do more and better. We set ourselves excessively high expectations and its not uncommon for this to stray into perfectionism either!
Add to this the chance of Imposter Experience getting in the way and we have this fear of being found out or not being good enough pushing us to overdeliver, to prove ourselves again, to do more or better.
It's often what drives the way we think, feel and behave. When we are confident, we get competence and are more likely to lean in, to back ourselves, to speak up. This combined with our self-care focus and an awareness of what we bring to the table is a winning formula for overcoming Imposter Experience and being our best. We are more likely to delegate and set boundaries, we’re also more likely to feel clarity and energy for peak performance and understand our unique skill set.
This is very different to when we’re in the space of overwhelm and doubt which breeds procrastination, self-doubt and fear of not being enough. We’re more likely to compare to others, feel like we’re falling short and ultimately burnout.
My programmes take teams from burnout to brilliance, from feeling overwhelmed and busy to confident and productive. To understand what we bring to the table and back ourselves to own our space.
The table below explains that journey from overwhelm and busyness through self-doubt to enable us to build our awareness, resilience and confidence to prove our competence.
