What if imposter syndrome isn't about not being good enough? What if it's actually about your inability to celebrate when you ARE good enough?In this solo episode, I'm sharing a perspective on imposter syndrome that you've probably never heard before—and it's going to change how you see your success.Here's what most people get wrong about imposter syndrome:We think it's about lacking confidence or fearing we'll be "found out." But after 15+ years of clinical work with high-achieving women, I've seen the real pattern: Imposter syndrome is a rejection of joy.It's not that you don't deserve success. It's that your nervous system literally cannot let you celebrate it.In this episode, I break down:Why imposter syndrome is actually a subconscious inability to feel joy and celebrationThe fear-driven cycle keeping you stuck: accomplish → can't celebrate → need more validation → resentmentHow cultural messages like "be humble" or "don't brag" reinforce this patternWhy waiting for "big wins" to celebrate is actually making imposter syndrome worseThe daily practice that builds your capacity to genuinely celebrate successHow your body holds the key to breaking the imposter cycleWhere emotions like joy, stress, and peace actually live in your body (and why this matters)The lifestyle shift that makes imposter syndrome impossible to maintainThe core insight:If you can't celebrate the small, everyday wins, your nervous system won't suddenly know how to celebrate the big ones. The promotion, the milestone, the achievement you've been chasing—when you get there, you'll feel the same emptiness because you haven't built the capacity for joy.The solution isn't more accomplishments. It's a daily practice of welcoming joy.This means:Acknowledging small successes every single dayNoticing where joy, calm, and peace show up in your bodyBuilding emotional capacity through embodied awareness, not just positive thinkingBreaking the cycle of external validation by learning to feel your own emotionsKey topics covered:The four core fears driving imposter syndrome (rejection, disapproval, disappointment, failure)Why high-achievers reject joy as a survival strategyThe difference between celebrating wins and "boasting"How to use your body as a guide to access emotionsWhy imposter syndrome is a nervous system issue, not a mindset issueThe practice that rewires your relationship with successThis episode is for you if:You accomplish things but immediately move to the next goal without celebratingYou feel uncomfortable when people praise youYou need external validation to feel worthy of your successYou're tired of the "never enough" cycleYou want to actually enjoy what you've builtThe truth is: You're not an imposter. You're just stuck in a pattern where your nervous system equates joy with danger. And that pattern? It can be changed.Action steps from this episode:Notice where joy, stress, and peace show up physically in your body todayAcknowledge one small, everyday success before bed tonightJoin the Insightful Success community for more embodied practices and supportResources mentioned:Join the FREE Insightful Success Facebook community for workshops and support: https://www.facebook.com/share/g/1Nvf2AeDtK/Book your free clarity call to work on building self-awareness: https://insightfulessence.com/coachingRemember: The antidote to imposter syndrome isn't achieving more.
