Listen "Stepping Up & Imposter Syndrome with Ruth Cooper-Dickson"
Episode Synopsis
Welcome to season two of the Virtual Coach Advantage podcast! To start off the new season, we're diving into the topic of imposter syndrome, which comes up with many of our clients as they step up into management and leadership roles. Joining us is Ruth Cooper-Dickson, CEO of CHAMPS Consult, an expert in mental health and wellness in the workplace.
There are so many misconceptions about imposter syndrome – for one thing, it's not actually a syndrome at all! We set the record straight on its reputation as a 'women's issue', and explore how you can put your inner critic in their place, increase your self-esteem and confidence, and rise to meet new challenges.
