Listen "36: Unleashing Your Inner Healer: Overcoming Imposter Syndrome and Embracing Self-Acceptance with Jim LaPierre, LCSW"
Episode Synopsis
Jim LaPierre, LCSW, CCS, is the owner and director of Higher Ground Services in Brewer, Maine, and he's on a mission to support survivors in transforming their lives. As a recovery ally, LGBTQ+ ally, mental health therapist, and addictions counselor, Jim brings a wealth of expertise and compassion to his work. Jim is not only a therapist but also a teacher, a clinical supervisor, and a writer. He's the creator of thebesttherapy.org, offering home study programs for healers and helpers, and the cofounder of Sobernow.com, an online addiction recovery program that's completely free. In this episode, Jim dives deep into the topic of overcoming imposter syndrome, revealing that it's more about identity and unhealed wounds than the actual job itself. He vulnerably shares his own experiences as a wounded healer, demonstrating how he uses his struggles and mistakes to open doors of healing for others. We explore important themes like self-care, burnout, anxiety, and the transformative power of self-acceptance. Jim teaches us that our effectiveness as healers and helpers is intimately connected to our own well-being. Join us as Jim imparts his wisdom, empowering you to transform your own journey while continuing to be a beacon of hope and healing for those you serve.
