Imposter Syndrome & Validation

There's no sugarcoating it; I was terrified at the prospect of striking out on my own and being self-employed in my late forties. It was daunting to think that I would be responsible for my own financial stability after having spent so many years working for others. So I did it, because if not now, then when? With the skills I gained and the life experience I already had and despite my fear of the unknown, I chose to go with my gut and believe in myself.
The old impostor syndrome may rear its ugly head at inopportune times, causing you to doubt your own abilities. Then the concern arises, "What if I can't get clients?" Can people count on me? I'm I good enough? What if my gut betrayed me?
And then like the entire cosmos was reflecting back at me in a mirror. I needed affirmation that I am precisely where I am intended to be and validation of my decision to pursue a career as a Life Coach.
You know who you are 😉 . I was honoured to accompany you on your journey. Thank you for your trust.
What do you do when self-doubt sets in? I'd love to know I am not alone in this.
Wishing a fruitful week to all. 🙏
