One of the most common questions I get asked about Imposter Syndrome is how you can spot the warning signs. They're masters of disguise.
So, back in 2018, I used our long-term research studies into Imposter Syndrome to create the 4 Ps of Imposter Syndrome model. By looking for differences in these 4 Ps, it helps you to spot the early warning signs of Imposter Syndrome, both in yourself and in others.
Now taught at universities and cited in PhDs, the 4 Ps of Imposter Syndrome is an incredibly useful pre-diagnostic for Imposter Syndrome, used by individuals, coaches and managers worldwide, every single day.
But there's more! Here's what's waiting for you today:

Who is really to blame for you experiencing imposter syndrome? This is an important question that I recently answered at a Q&A session.
This episode is for everyone who feels like they have tried everything to fix imposter syndrome for themselves or their team and it hasnāt worked. It's likely to be because they're only addressing one of the three pillars - I spill the beans on those during the episode.
71% of your team is experiencing toxic resilience right now and feeling the need to cover up and carry on as though nothing is wrong. This leads to them operating on a fight, flight or freeze response which makes burnout and imposter syndrome so much worse.
Listen now to discover how the three key pillars of Imposter Syndrome are getting in the way of preventing imposter syndrome, and what you can do about it, even in the next few weeks. Plus, Iāll share how you can become a beacon of hope for others.
What youāll discover:

Do you want to offer more than a 'tea and sympathy' approach to your colleagues or clients with imposter syndrome?
25% of your team are actively thinking about quitting their job every single week as a result of imposter syndrome. Yet, untrained line managers, HR, and mental health first aiders are at the frontline of trying to fix their colleagues' pain.
In this episode, I take you through why tea and sympathy is an essential first step and what needs to come next to start clearing imposter syndrome, which is often caused by complex trauma, rather than a mindset-level issue.
Listen now to find everything you need to know about how you can help people with imposter syndrome beyond sharing the war wounds of your own experience.
