Hello there!

In this episode, I read Chapter 1: Know Your Co-ordinatesfrom my bestselling book, Inner Brilliance · Outer Shine: 10 Antidotes to Imposter Syndrome, Workaholism & Stress. I’m sharing all 10 chapters from my book as a way to support your summer growth and personal development.

The goal of this chapter is to help you establish where youare right now, so you can start reflecting on what you’d like to change.

In this episode, we’ll explore:

• How we get stuck in Groundhog Day with our stress patterns
• What burnout and stress really are
• Why moving beyond stress, workaholism, and imposter syndrome is an inside job - we have to take charge of our ‘ship’
• Why reassurance-seeking doesn’t work to make us feel good enough
• How we shrink our space and limit ourselves
• What imposter syndrome is and how it connects to not feeling good enough
• Why denial only prolongs our suffering and how to break free

I have permission from my publisher to read most of my bookaloud. If you'd like to access the parts I’ve omitted, you can download them from my Workbook and Journal, which serves as a self-coaching model, availablehere: https://linktr.ee/EstelleAtBeee

Roz very kindly endorsed my book, Inner Brilliance · Outer Shine: 10 Antidotes to Imposter Syndrome, Workaholism and Stress. We trained together as coaches 18 years ago and what’s always impressed me about her, is that she makes a success of whatever she turns her hand to.

She’s been a partner in a firm of patent attorneys in Derby, run a coaching business and is now an award-winning crime author with Harper Collins with her DI Meg Dalton Crime Series.

This episode of Leader Insider Secrets was recorded from her writing shed overlooking a field where she thinks about murder plots. We talk about:

· Her murder board.

· How she uses repetitive activities to think creatively.

· How she knows when it’s time to change something in her work or life.

· Her tips for focusing and concentrating.

· The positive childhood experience which taught her to ask for help and to trust people.

· How she doesn’t get hung up on goals which she can’t control. She focuses on things she can make happen.

· How she handles 1 star reviews.

· How it’s important to let yourself feel ‘it’ and be genuine in your emotions.

· How she cheers herself up if she feels down, when she needs to get a job done.

· The worst piece of advice she’s been given.

Roz is one of the most interesting people I know and has a brilliant brain. It was easy to see, listening to her, why she makes a success of things.

The best place to connect with Roz is on Twitter. You can find out more about her books here, the first in the series is The Devils Dice.
