Episode 701 - Imposter's Complex
Living Free in Tennessee - Nicole Sauce
Homesteading - The Hard Part
Derek Bros. is headed to next steps.info, a conference on opting out of the technocratic state. They've got sessions on citizen journalism, homesteading and homeschooling. And for me, from an operation independent standpoint, I am getting to know a whole new network of people who are interested in the same things that people who listen to my podcast are. So this expands the community.
Today, I share some thoughts about imposter's complex, changing mindset and owning your future.

Weekly Shopping Report
None this week
Frugality Tip from Margo
Different stores have different prices and I make a separate grocery list for a couple of stores. Things like eggs, produce, and baking supplies all come from Aldi. If I'm running into the grocery store that is closer to home, I also make it a point to check out their BOGO section, you can save a few bucks right there. Make a list of the things you buy often and check the prices at different stores, you would be shocked at some of the differences.
I use a specific coffee creamer that they have the grocery store, but Walmart has it for $1.50 less, so I'll grab a couple when I'm there.

- Headed to Next-steps.info – you can still get tickets!
Main topic of the Show: Imposter's Complex
This was inspired by a talk with Amy Dingmann over at a Farmish Kind of LIfe
I have been reading a book called Dotcom Secrets by Russle Brunson -it was recommended by John Bush
- John's selling and email system vs what we do here
- Keeping an open mind
People getting mad about me making money, or not wanting to know when things are for sale.
Decision: The few who are mad at me for selling things don't really support me so I need to be ok with leaving them behind
- Current email list will have no changes
- News lists will happen over time
>>>What has happened with training webinars over the past two years - we do them better and why
The Big Decision: If I invest more in training, there are better results for the people I want to help - a win/win
Which brings me to imposter's complex: Did a live Radio Show Last night and the feedback was that Tim and I were inspiring.
We had no idea what we were doing!
Enter Imposter's Complex.
Concept: you just need to be a chapter or two ahead of the people you are helping to be able to teach them and do NOT need to be an "expert". To them you are an expert. In fact you probably teach it bette than someone who is miles ahead.
Ways I have used this:
- Going on autopilot - and getting out of it
- Writing Marketing Copy – fake it til you make it
- Launching the podcast
- Being "OK" with losing listeners because I sell things, have sponsors, etc (It hurts but wont in the long run)
- Reminding myself to be disciplined with #my3things (Free webinar)
When you get up and post something like: Going for a daily walk can change your life, and you realize you only went on three last week, are you an imposter? Or are in the fake it til you make it time?
Feeling Imposter's complex is normal. Not moving forward because of it though, that is a huge mistake/
Make it a great week!
