Hello Visionista!

Let's bring the elephant in the room into the light for a second… doubt. We all feel it.

Doubt isn't the enemy — it's information. In this episode, Dr. Yanina Gomez teaches a practical way to decode impostor thoughts so they stop hijacking your choices and start guiding wiser action. You'll learn a three-question Doubt Decoder and how to build a daily Expansion Evidence Log that gives your brain the proof it needs to trust you more.

REFLECTION PROMPTS:

• When doubt shows up, what do you tend to do? (shut down, overthink, distract?)

• Think of one recent moment when doubt tugged at your sleeve. What was it protecting you from?

• Where does that doubt live in your body?

THIS WEEK'S STRATEGIES:

1. Doubt Decoder

2. Expansion Evidence Log

THIS WEEK'S ACTION STEPS:

• Choose one recent moment you doubted and run it through the Doubt Decoder.

• Start an Expansion Evidence Log — one line a day for seven days.

• Share your decoded doubt moment with a trusted peer or Visionista.

Welcome Back, Visionistas!

In this episode, we flip the mirror on impostor tendencies that push you away from success: the shrinking, the busywork, the silence after a win. Learn to identify your personal avoidance signals, track the reactions that follow wins, and establish simple Success Steward Rituals so success feels safe, steady, and sustainable.

Reflection Prompts:

1. List your last three wins. What did you do immediately after each one?
2. When success arrives, what story runs through your mind? ("This won't last," "Now they'll expect more.")
3. Where do you feel tension in your body as success nears?

Strategies:

• Success Signal Map
• Success Steward Rituals

This Week's Action Step(s)...

1. Complete your Success Signal Map and identify one trigger.
2. Choose one Success Steward Ritual to practice before/after your next milestone.
3. Celebrate out loud: share one win publicly and one lesson learned.

Hello, Visionista, welcome to Inside Edge!

In this episode, we name a quiet pattern many powerful women hide: impostor tendencies that lead you to avoid growth. Whether you delay a price increase, say "maybe next time" to speaking invitations, or stall a launch, avoidance often hides under polite logic. Learn to spot your avoidance cues, map approach vs. avoidance, and take one tiny exposure step that builds real momentum.

Reflection Prompts:

1. Where have you been politely shrinking or saying "not yet" to growth?
2. What exact thought stops you from raising your price, pitching a bigger client, or saying yes to visibility?
3. Where does avoidance live in your body (throat tightness, shoulder curl, compulsive researching)?

This Week's Strategies:

1. Approach vs. Avoidance Check
2. Micro-Exposure Ladder

This Week's Action Step(s):

1. Name one growth move you've been avoiding and write the blocking thought beside it.
2. Create one 15–30 minute micro-step toward that move (e.g., send an email, sketch an outline, record a short video).
3. Share your plan with one trusted peer for accountability.

Additional Notes:

In my book, Crush Self-Sabotage and Live Fully, I share mindset scripts and micro-exposure practices that make these steps easier to follow. Though written for creatives, the tools translate smoothly for women entrepreneurs and leaders—use them for pricing, pitching, visibility, and steady expansion.
