Imposter syndrome starts in the body (not the room)

If you’re a sensitive soul, you probably know that fizzy “do I even belong here?” feeling. Yep—imposter syndrome loves a grand entrance at exactly the wrong moment. The twist: it’s less about whether they accept you and more about whether you are in your body. When you’re present, you belong—full stop.

BPI-ism 101: as above, so below. When imposter syndrome spikes, try this first: feel your feet, notice your breath, and imagine a gentle downward rinse clearing static through your legs into the earth. On the inhale, claim it: “I’m here. I belong in my body.” Home first, audience second.

Imposter syndrome in leadership

Anytime you step up—publish, speak, host—you may feel an expansion of your energetic space. There’s a short, awkward “new shoes” phase before you feel more comfortable in your space. During that gap, attention can bump you out of your body and crank up imposter syndrome. That doesn’t mean “you’re a fraud.” It means “you’re becoming.”

Backstage mantra: “Permission to learn in public. Permission to take up space. Permission to be imperfect and present.”

Enjoy this Psychics Gone Live where Miwa and Three discuss imposter syndrome, anxiety, and why it can be particullary challenging for sensitive souls.
