The stories you tell yourself about who you are aren't fully true. An executive coach explains how recognizing this gap lets you deliberately feed your subconscious better narratives, cutting through imposter syndrome by rewriting the ones that don't serve you.
One of the most important things that I've done to try to overcome my own imposter syndrome is just to use my conscious mind, to understand my conscious mind's primary job is to feed stories to my subconscious that are empowering. And by the way, a good friend of mine who's an executive coach and I were just talking last night, maybe 2 nights ago. I said, you know, the story that I feel like I need to uncover and I need to buy into about my life, why things are going the way they are or what's going on, is I need to get close to the truth. And he said, None of the stories you ever tell yourself are the truth. You need to get over that. No story you ever tell yourself about anything is ever 100% true.
