Overcoming Self-Doubt: The "Handbrake" Analogy
The session began by defining imposter syndrome—a phenomenon where individuals doubt their accomplishments and have a persistent, internalized fear of being exposed as a "fraud." Often affecting successful women, it acts as a mental "handbrake" that holds us back from reaching our goals. The webinar was divided into two key parts: internal mindset work and external communication techniques.The "4 A's" Framework
A key takeaway was the "4 A's" framework, a practical approach to shifting our internal narrative:
- Acceptance: Recognize that everything is just a story we tell ourselves.
- Awareness: Identify and acknowledge your negative thought patterns.
- Accountability: Take ownership of your story and your professional journey.
- Adapting: Take action to change the narrative from a negative to a positive one.
In addition to this framework, the speakers shared valuable techniques such as daily journaling, visualization before important events, and focusing on strengths rather than weaknesses. The session also covered external communication strategies, including body language, developing personal value stories, active listening, and accepting compliments gracefully.
SmartHER: A Community of Growth
This webinar is just one example of the support SmartHER provides. Our mission is to help each other grow, break barriers, and build a strong alliance together - learning from each other and from experts along the way.
