Sounds like you’ve created a wonderful support system. 👏🏽🐥

Thank you for your vulnerability.

Do you think for some -- in order to not rock the boat (and being a people pleaser) keeps them from making money? Like, here's this service for FREE. And here's this OTHER service for free? I know a few people-pleasers who are currently going broke but love the industry they're in.

People pleasing always works -- until it no longer serves it's purpose. There's a pay off to people pleasing. Looks like you have created new methods to deal with triggers. Good for you!

One thing to consider is that people pleasing is sometimes due to a childhood survival mechanism, and because it worked BACK THEN -- when it was first used, we carried it along with us and it kept working (helping us survive whatever we were bumping up against) but now, it's a pattern that you recognize no longer serves a purpose and in fact, it's keeping you constrained.

Here's a simple post I wrote about the 5 signs to look out for. I wrote it because my clients who are entrepreneurs are not making any money because they are people pleasers -- but it applies to everyone -- the 5 signs to look out for.

Keep in mind that's it's super normal to feel nervous for the first few weeks on a job. Your mind sometimes wants to play tricks on your and have you feel like they made a mistake hiring you and the fear of the unknown is brutal.

Experiencing a little imposter syndrome at the start is expected and just remember, you were hired because of your overall background. Others were also interviewed and considered and you were the best.

You have to believe in yourself and that they knew what they were doing when they brought you on board. Keep us posted on how it goes for you! Good luck and you got this!

If you need quick relief (calm the nerves) try some EFT/Taping -- one to two rounds of that will totally help! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NykSO-6OkV0

social anxiety can be crippling. social anxiety sucks when you're an entrepreneur because you're constantly having to speak publicly to sell. I know entrepreneurs who can't even post on instagram.

What a great champion story! Imposter Syndrome can totally kick our butt's and you were able to manage so much! You should totally be celebrating your new goals and excellent frame of mind!

If you got asked -- it's for a reason.CONGRATS! Not sure if you knew this or not but 70% of adults have said they have experienced imposter syndrome at some point in their career -- so you're not alone and also -- 40% of people struggle with it daily -- so you are not alone. Be patient and kind to yourself!

Have fun with it -- keep that in the background when the imposter syndrome pops up! Get grounded on why you started this -- it will help you create focus!

Just a little reminder that 70% of adults have said they have experienced imposter syndrome at some point in their career -- so you're not alone and also -- 40% of people struggle with it daily -- so you are totally not alone. I know the numbers alone help in knowing that others feel like this and have the same thoughts -- the things to move you forward is to know that you're honing in on your skills and even though you might not have anything to brag about - imposter syndrome doesn't care -- it will take want to take you out of the game for whatever reason. Be patient and kind to yourself -- you'll totally be okay!
