80: Overcoming Imposter Syndrome with the Enneagram

Overcoming Imposter Syndrome with the Enneagram It’s a new week which means it is time for another episode of EnneaTalk Tuesday. This week I delve into the topic of Imposter Syndrome, what it looks like, how it can impact us, and how it shows up and presents itself for every type on the Enneagram. Listen to this episode for tips and tricks to navigate out of imposter syndrome, how to recognize when you have fallen into it, and exactly how to lean into your gifts and trust yourself to lead the life and find the success you deserve. What is Imposter Syndrome? I start off this episode offering a few definitions of imposter syndrome, how it can show up if you feel like you don’t belong in a situation or that you are not qualified. I talk about how it can show up in relationships, business, friendships, and can lead to self-sabotage and self-fulfilling prophecies. Using the Enneagram to lean into your gifts I discuss how every single person can battle with Imposter Syndrome, how as we continue to level up and personally develop there will always be some level of fear, insecurity, and doubt. I offer tips and tricks for each type on how to handle and lean into your gifts to get out of the cycle and discuss how each type’s core desires and fears play a role in how this syndrome impacts each one. I give examples of how the Enneagram can be used to recognize your true value and gifts and can be your greatest tool in pulling yourself out of self-doubt and into your true calling.Quotes:2:31As we are leveling up and personal developing the crap out of ourselves, just know..new levels, new devils.3:11If you continue to live in that impostor syndrome and stay stuck in it and don't take action, you’re going to be stuck in fear forever.5:13I don’t want you for one more day to be robbed of joy, success, abundance, love, not for one more minute. 5:45If we only have the awareness and then just take corrective action, the chances of it being sustainable or you know to go the distance usually doesn't last very long.8:44When 2’s really can build that muscle, they really are able to step into that healthy 4 part of them.10:16The more that you allow yourself to feel your way through, the less you’re going to be chasing the unattainable.11:57The basic desire for the enneagram type 5 is to be competent.14:04If you are a 6 you know that can talk your way out of, you know shining your light on the world.14:55The 7’s are the masters at you know just going to the next thing, going to the next thing and they don't take their time to feel stuff.17:028's are world class leaders, and to be a world class leader, you need support and I know as an 8 that's one of our scariest things...but it’s important.
