Episode Synopsis

In this episode of "The Distraction Advantage," Shannon Stone, an entrepreneur and land developer, tackles the pervasive issue of Impostor Syndrome—the fear of being exposed as a fraud despite evident success and competency. Shannon candidly shares her personal struggle with this syndrome, recalling how, despite securing a major client, she was plagued with self-doubt and felt inadequate when compared to larger firms. To navigate this, she began documenting her successes, small and large, to solidify her accomplishments and build her confidence. With this 'confidence receipts folder', Shannon hopes to inspire listeners to recognize, acknowledge, and conquer this common fear, further underlining that feelings of impostor syndrome are indicative of an individual's care and commitment rather than their inadequacy. Next week, she promises to dive into the tactical realm—how to effectively manage the first 90 days with a new client.
