42 | When Your Imposter Syndrome Is Really a Five-Year-Old Trying to Keep You Safe - A Hypnocoach...

This week’s hypnocoaching session is with Erika, a former corporate leader who walked away from the safety of a steady career to build her own leadership and team culture coaching business. On paper, she’s exactly the kind of person you’d trust to walk into a room and lead it. Years of experience. A track record of growing teams. People who’ve worked for her are still reaching out to say how much she changed their lives. But behind the scenes, every time she starts to gain momentum in her business, something tightens in her shoulders, and a familiar chorus kicks in: “Who am I to do this?” “Other people are more qualified.” “What if this doesn’t work and everyone sees me fail?” Opportunities arrive… and instead of feeling excited, her nervous system goes into a state of resistance. In hypnosis, we go inside to meet the part of her that created imposter syndrome and self-doubt. Instead of fighting that part, we listen to it. We thank it. We let it tell the truth about how long it’s been working and how exhausted it is, and then something shifts. This episode is a powerful look at what happens when you realize your imposter syndrome isn’t proof you’re a fraud, it’s proof a younger you has been trying to keep you safe for a very long time, and what becomes possible when you let that part finally rest. What You’ll Hear in This Episode • How Erika’s shift from corporate leader to entrepreneur amplified her imposter syndrome • The role of family dynamics, “out of sight, out of mind,” and perfectionism in her self-doubt • How a childhood experience that was never spoken about shaped her beliefs about visibility and safety • Meeting the part of her that lives in her shoulders and runs imposter syndrome as a protection plan • Why your nervous system sometimes shuts down opportunities you consciously want • How hypnosis allows us to dialogue with protective parts instead of trying to bulldoze over them • A reparenting process where Erika brings her five-year-old self into her current, safer life • Practical ways Erika will support herself moving forward when that “who am I to do this?” voice shows up again Resources and Links • Want to work together 1:1?
