Listen "Episode 15: The Truth About Imposter Syndrome! How To Show Up In It vs Shrink Back with Melissa Hughes"
Episode Synopsis
Ever felt like you’re a total FRAUD? Like any minute someone's going to figure out just how unqualified or imperfect you are? SAME.
In this episode of The BAD Mom Show, I sit down with my powerhouse friend Melissa Hughes — TikTok influencer, international speaker, best-selling author, and a real-talker. We unpack the truth about imposter syndrome, how it sneaks into motherhood, career and calling, and how to handle the moments when your mind says 'you’re not enough, you don't have what it takes, just quit before they find out.'
Melissa shares her own story of feeling unqualified as a new mom and watching God take her valley season into a viral moment on TikTok that included 22 million views and a spot on the Kelly Clarkson show! Overnight she had a platform and felt very much an imposter in this new arena- coming from a daycare center. She shares how God used that moment to call her into deeper dependency on Him because afterall- if we could reach our impossible dreams on our own, we wouldn't need faith much, would we? God always calls us to things we’re not qualified for - that's the point! But when we take steps of faith with Him, He continues to qualify us through our action.
We talk about the difference between striving and stepping out in faith, what it means to let God refine your heart in the hidden seasons, and how surrender always precedes success.
As Melissa says in the episode, 'the antidote to imposter syndrome is authenticity.' When you stop pretending and show up as your true self, that’s when God moves. This episode is PACKED with nuggets you'll want to hold onto so get cozy and be ready to embrace the discomfort of imposter syndrome! It's a sign you're on the right path.
