Do You Have Imposter Syndrome Or Do You Just Suck?

I’ve noticed a trend of financial advisors thinking they have imposter syndrome. And so I decided to investigate… 

When I did, I found out the hard truth: 

Most financial advisors whining about their imposter syndrome are misdiagnosing it. They don’t actually have imposter syndrome, they just suck at their jobs. 

This might not be your favorite thing to hear. But it’s true.

But don’t worry. In today’s show, I’ll tell you how to prove whether you actually have imposter syndrome or not. And how to stop using it as an excuse if you don’t.

Listen now.
