Imposter Syndrome: Are You Talking Yourself Out of Your Own Potential? | Ep 162

Have you ever felt imposter syndrome before? Put simply, it’s the feeling that you’re a fraud or that you don’t belong in a space where you are - even though you have legitimate skills and effort that got you there. We may struggle with imposter syndrome for many reasons: we’re trying something new, we’ve become the little fish in a big pond, or we just feel like a phony or a fraud when pursuing something we’re passionate about. We often talk ourselves out of the thing we want to do for fear of not being good enough, and we worry that we don't have what it takes. “Who am I to do this” stampedes its way through our brain at the WORST possible times. (Like at the exact moment we’re about to make a leap forward.)In this episode, Erin highlights things to pay attention to in your life and questions to ask yourself when you experience this phenomenon. You’ll walk away with actionable steps for when you’re experiencing imposter syndrome, and what you can do to dig yourself out of it. We even created a companion guide you can download and fill out for yourself! Are you talking yourself out of your own potential? Tune into this episode to learn how to get your brain into a new mindset. Resources mentioned:Boundaries Workshop with Erin on Saturday, 7/24!

Today Erin welcomes back to the show Toréa Rodriguez, FDN-P to discuss not just mold, lyme, and chronic illness, but also how to navigate symptoms, testing, and communicating your illness to friends and family (especially if they don't understand).

She's worked at some of the leading dot-com Silicon Valley companies, has held executive positions and she used to be a professional pilot flying jets for private families & charter companies out of the San Francisco Bay Area. Her diagnosis of two debilitating autoimmune diseases brought her back to biochemistry, not only achieving full remission, but also certification as a Functional Diagnostic Nutrition® Practitioner. During that time discovered her love of coaching.Today, she coaches her clients through their own unique transformational experience that helps restore health, vitality and balance the immune system so that they can focus on their dreams without sacrificing their health.In this episode:-If you've ever been called a hypochondriac...

Unpacking Core Beliefs | Ep 155

There’s a universal theme among many of us that says we aren’t good enough unless we’re doing more, being more, creating more. Our society is set up to reward this behavior, too: from pay raises and promotions to likes and comments that say, “You’re crushing it!!” it’s hard to think you’re still worthy or enough if you slow down or take a step back.Today Erin speaks from the heart and draws from examples in her own life and business to discuss the concept of unpacking core beliefs about ourselves, how they tend to show up in our lives, and how shifting these core beliefs can radically change your life in ways you wouldn’t see otherwise. It touches on a lot of things many of us are experiencing right now (burnout, stress) and things we may be wanting to tap into or bring more into our lives (intuition, boundaries).If you’ve been waiting for a little more woo on the pod, this episode is definitely for you!In this episode:-Premise of the topic today & how this episode (inadvertently) ties into last week’s [1:24]-A new phase in Erin’s business and life [3:16]-Remembering the tenets of health [8:53]-A recap of Erin’s last year and coming to examine her core beliefs [11:10]-Responsibility and how your beliefs shape your life [20:22]-Burnout and physical ailments [23:53]-The core wound belief that you’re not doing enough [27:23]-Why it’s not other people’s responsibility to anticipate your needs or boundaries [29:08]-The danger of feeling needed in order to feel important, productive and worthy [33:05]-Why you can’t tap into or hear your intuition speaking [34:54]-How to acknowledge what doesn’t work any longer [38:49]-What to do when you’re feeling stuck [42:44]-Erin’s intuitive knowing with her Gut Program [43:27]-Why it’s OK to trust yourself [49:25]-What is NOT self-care [51:34]-Finding ways to connect with your intuition [52:41]Resources mentioned:Organifi supplement powder (save 20% on your order with code FUNK) https://organifi.com/FUNKNedra Glover Tawwab, therapist & author of Set Boundaries, Find Peace https://www.nedratawwab.com/Your Hormone Revival™ https://www.erinholthealth.com/hormonesFollow Erin on Insta https://www.instagram.com/the.funktional.nutritionist/Related episodes:118: Intuition, Energy Medicine & Personal Power https://www.erinholthealth.com/funktional-nutrition-podcast/2020/9/24/episode-118nbspintuition-energy-medicine-amp-personal-power123: Creating Your Morning Ritual https://www.erinholthealth.com/funktional-nutrition-podcast/2020/11/3/episode-123-creating-your-morning-ritual
