Imposter Syndrome [E021]

Thank You To Our Partners, The Institute, AutoFlow, AutoLeap, Shop Dog Marketing and In-Bound

In this episode - host Craig O’Neill goes further into the topic of public speaking anxiety.

Familiar guest, Evan Wisner is back again with additional insights into Imposter Syndrome - which plagues the mind of experts in any field - particularly when they are called on to speak up!

In addition to touching on elements of the Dunning Krueger effect - there is a debate which (probably remains unsettled - you’ll have to decide!) on whether speakers should introduce themselves along with their credentials when beginning a speech or presentation.  Or perhaps is it enough that you are you, and you are there, and you have something to share. 

Evan highlights the balance of your focus and that confidence is not always an indicator of knowledge and knowledge does not always bring about confidence.

This episode will reassure you and provide helpful advice such as keeping things simple, and remembering that positive self-talk and the ability to accept (genuine) positive feedback are skills that can help you overcome this component of fear.

Most important - and again harkening back to episode 018 - Craig reminds Speak Up Listeners that stories are the things people remember most - and your stories are something only YOU can bring to the stage.

This is another enjoyable conversation between Evan and Craig with many takeaways.
