Have you ever felt like a fraud in your own life or business? This episode takes a hard look at imposter syndrome, dissecting its roots and effects on authentic expression and interactions.
In this episode of the Shift to Freedom podcast, we have a candid conversation about authenticity in both business and personal life.
Gain insights into the impact of inauthentic behavior, how to notice it, and what to do about it. We touch on relevant topics such as sales, alignment, and language, and share strategies to navigate the tension between authenticity and kindness.
Join us to explore practical ways to combat imposter syndrome and foster authenticity in your life and business. Identify your blind spots, challenge your self-perception, and make a significant shift towards authenticity.
In this episode:
Authenticity is about living in alignment with your own values and what drives you as a person. [1:33]Authenticity doesn't necessarily equate to honesty. It's possible to be authentic without being completely honest, as authenticity is about alignment with your values. [1:49]The language you use, can give you clues for when you're not living in alignment with your authentic self. [8:01]Authenticity requires a strong understanding of your own values and desires, and the courage to act in alignment with them. [12:21]Inauthenticity can lead to feelings of overwhelm or the experience of "imposter syndrome." [16:18]Authenticity can improve how you view and approach sales. [17:43]Links:

Every time we are about to take a big step, and we question ourselves if we are on the right track or making the right choice, where does that voice come from? Is it fear of failure? Is it self-doubt, our gut waving at us, trying to stop us from making a mistake, or is it just us getting in our way?
In this MVP episode, I'm joined by Sophie Weill to identify where this voice comes from, how to avoid falling into a plateau in our personal and professional growth, determine if we are making decisions out of fear or love, and identify self-doubt's red flags.
Together, we discuss the importance of recognizing the authority and autonomy over our life choices and the need to stop seeing failure as an end and understand it as part of every process. We also explore the concept of externalizing authority, building external and internal self-trust mechanisms, and developing the strength to be ready to face the risk and the consequences of our actions.
In This Episode:
Every time we ask a question, we are making an assumptionThe baby and the cliff. Why do we tend to check with an external source if we are making the right choiceAbout what we choose every time we make a decisionHow to detangle ourselves from the need for an external authority guiding us to the right pathAre we acting out of love and alignment, or fear and avoidanceResources:

In this MVP episode, we talk about the zone of genius with Sophie Weill, Founder of the PR Agency Nude Nation Relations and host of the Active Ingredient podcast.
Together, we unravel this fascinating topic. We delve into what is the zone of genius, why it is often related to the Japanese "Ikigai" concept, and what we can do to operate 100% of the time in it.
We discuss what it takes to hone the skills that belong to our zone of genius, why we feel miserable when we spend too much time out of it, and why, by doing this, we end up blocking others from accessing their own. We also differentiate zone of genius from zone of excellence, analyze the "know every moving part of your company" business model, and introduce the concept of enrolling as an upgrade of the word, delegating.
In This Episode:
What it means to operate in our zone of geniusDoes our "original setup," or how we are hardwired, affect how we connect with our zone of geniusHow do we block others from operating in their zone of genius when we decide to work out of oursThe importance of checking in with ourselves regularlyThe differences between zone of genius and zone of excellenceWhen we feel effective and impactful yet not productive, how can we change that mentalityResources:

Ironically, acceptance is one of the most resisted concepts when it comes to wrapping our minds around it. It's an idea that is hard to grasp without confusing it with something else like tolerance, resignation, or agreement.
In this MVP episode, Clayton and I talk about one of the radical shifts we can make to change our world: radical acceptance. We delve into why it is so hard to connect with radical acceptance and embrace it in the present moment without feeling we are losing something.
Together, we uncover the several meanings we tend to attribute to acceptance that doesn't necessarily describe what it is and how it can serve us. We pay attention to the language we use to describe acceptance and get in touch with how those words land within ourselves and make us feel. We also go through some practical and philosophical ways to embrace acceptance in the present moment and learn how to be friends with the things we want to change in ourselves and the world around us.

Although success and failure are antonyms, in practice, they are complementary. In any endeavor, failing is the most logical way to reach success. The truth is that accomplishing something we want badly has more to do with the will to succeed than how and how many times we fail at trying.
In this MVP episode, we discuss radical commitment, the only tool we need to go through, manage, and conquer anything we put our minds into. We analyze the power of radical commitment, go through the four steps to choosing it to be our opt-out to failure, and learn how to put failure in perspective and change our perceptions about it. In addition, we explore and understand why sometimes it is so hard to commit to something.
In This Episode:
What is radical commitment, and how can it serve us to reach our goalsWhat are the three main reasons why we have a hard time committing to somethingWould you do something knowing you'd fail a thousand times before succeeding?The importance of picturing a possible path for usBurn the ships!

Most entrepreneurs, especially those who reach a certain level of success, sooner or later experience a sense of disbelief in their abilities and unworthiness of what they've accomplished; they feel like a fraud.
These feelings are best known as imposter syndrome. Although we are beings having human experiences, and it's completely normal to feel like this, there are ways to mitigate these sensations and slowly but surely, erase them from our system.
In this MVP episode, Ben explores why we experience imposter syndrome and why it's so common among successful people. The "curse of knowledge" and its role in creating the feeling of unworthiness, and practical ways to deal with it are also covered.
Our world is shaped by what we are looking for, let's not overlook the importance of celebrating our wins and appreciating our progress.
In This Episode:
If you are experiencing imposter syndrome, you are not aloneAbout the "curse of knowledge" and how it affects usA couple of practical ways to deal with the "curse of knowledge"What is a "personal badassery list," and how it can serve usThe myth about levels of mastery and incorporating new knowledgeThe importance of looking at our wins and celebrating themLinks:

Approaching every aspect of life as a zero-sum game not only adds unnecessary pressure, but it chops off our creativity and forces us to operate from a scarcity mindset.
In this MVP episode, I'm joined by Clayton Olson to talk about the limitations of having a zero-sum game mindset, how it impacts our professional and personal lives, and how to avoid being trapped in it.
Our conversation revolves around how we are socially conditioned to operate from a zero-sum game mindset, the debilitating and daunting tendency of setting external mile markers, and the distinction between what we need and what we want. We also touch on how the zero-sum game mindset affects our sentimental, professional, and personal lives and what are the most effective motivators to reach our goals.
In addition, Clayton shares a powerful framework to transform external mile markers into internal ones by celebrating small victories and focusing on the path behind us.
In this episode, we cover:
What the zero-sum game mindset is and how it affects the way we approach our goals and challenges in lifeHow the zero-sum game mentality affects us in our relationshipsHow external mile markers hold us backWhat can we do to avoid falling into the zero-sum game mentality trapWe are so busy trying to get there that we don't realize we already are thereResources:

Clayton and Ben are back with a MVP episode and this time they're talking about the importance of boundaries. Setting boundaries is key to having a meaningful life. They allow you to create space for the things that matter most to you. They protect your relationships. They save you time.
But it can be difficult to set boundaries with other people. We want to be liked, we don't want to rock the boat. We're afraid of what other people might think or say. So how do we find the balance between building solid relationships and protecting whatâs important?

âPeople pleasing brings a ton of limitations and really gets in the way of us being able to create adult relationships where there's vulnerability, authenticity, transparency, and a resilience in the connection where both people can be seen and actually loved,â explains co-host Clayton Olson. If you have a tendency toward people pleasing, you are likely not being your authentic self and may even be struggling to find your tribe. Truthfully, it takes a lot of inner work to reverse the childhood conditioning that reinforces people pleasing behaviors, but it is worth it to build better relationships. In this MVP episode, co-host Clayton Olson and I talk about why people pleasing exists and how to stop people pleasing and start forming more authentic relationships.
When we are children, we rely on the relationship with our caregivers for everything. This means that we tend to learn pretty quickly that it works in our favor to try to please them. However, this type of relationship is very unbalanced and doesnât work in adulthood. If we constantly try to please everyone, we can never show our true selves. And instead of attracting our tribe, we will attract the tribe that fits the false self that we created to please others. In order to stop people pleasing and start living authentically, we must figure out what our own principles are and stick to them.
People pleasing can be a really problematic tendency for many people because it is a survival technique we learn in childhood. Even though people pleasing may seem harmless, it tends to lead to resentment, poor boundaries, and inauthentic relationships.

Unworthiness is a layered and complex feeling; it can also be manifested in different ways, from overworking ourselves to exhaustion, imposter syndrome, or paralysis.
In this MVP episode, Clayton Olson helps me unravel unworthiness' tricky ways. We learn about the concept of worthiness, how it might be showing up in our lives, and what we can do to reverse unworthiness symptoms and effects.
Throughout our conversation, we analyze some of the typical responses to feeling unworthy, like overworking or procrastination, their origin, and what they are trying to protect us from. Clayton shares Richard Schwartz's fascinating view of humans as a constellation of parts. We take a deeper look at these parts separately, unravel their original intentions, and figure out why they might not be helping us move forward.
In This Episode, You Will Learn:
About Clayton's look of worthiness (2:12)Why we don't do the things, we are supposed to do. The feeling of guilt and obligation (3:45)What are overworking, procrastination, and the imposter syndrome protecting us from (4:25)The use of the word "should" and the oppressive approach to our tasks (9:31)At what point in their lives does someone lose their worthiness, and why (19:27)The power of affirmations, visualization, and taking action (22:58)Resources:
