The Kara Report | Online Marketing Tips and Candid Business Conversations 70 | Imposter Syndrome Has Cost Me THOUSANDS.... Let's Talk About It (4 Ways)
We talk a lot about strategy in business—pricing, marketing, systems—but what about the mindset stuff that quietly chips away at our growth and profits? The truth is, some of the most expensive mistakes I’ve made weren’t because of bad investments or wrong moves… they were because of imposter syndrome.
You know the feeling: you hesitate to raise your prices because you’re worried people will walk away. You sign up for yet another course hoping it’ll finally make you feel “qualified enough.” You keep quiet in client conversations instead of setting boundaries because you don’t want to seem difficult or unprofessional. If any of that hits close to home—you’re not alone.
In this solo episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on four sneaky ways imposter syndrome has cost me thousands (yep, tens of thousands, if I’m being honest). From overinvesting in education I didn’t need to undercharging for services I knew were delivering real results, I’m walking you through the hard lessons I wish someone had told me earlier. Awareness is the first step!
🎙️ In This Episode:
- How investing in too many courses was a $$$ mistake
- The software I kept paying for just to “look professional”—and how much it cost me
- Why I overdelivered for years and undercharged, even with happy clients + results
