×Mental load, burnout, and imposter syndrome create a perfect storm that significantly contributes to the gender pay gap. In this episode, we delve into some very concerning statistics from the 2024 Imposter Syndrome Research Study that show how these issues disproportionately affect women, leading to chronic stress and limiting their career growth. The research highlights that over half of female employees are 'very concerned' about burnout, and 31% are at 'high risk'. Many are being driven to exhaustion by a combination of Imposter Syndrome coping strategies, impossible workloads, too many meetings, and juggling household responsibilities alongside their professional lives. This episode challenges the cultural assumptions that still exist in workplaces, including the outdated notion that leadership roles are designed for people with housewives. Join Clare as she explores actionable steps to address these systemic and cultural issues and shares practical solutions for a more equitable work environment for everyone. What We'll Cover: The combination of mental load, burnout, and imposter syndrome is fuelling the gender pay gap. Women face a unique perfect storm of challenges that make it harder for them than for men to get promoted. Mental load often falls disproportionately on women, creating chronic stress, limiting their career growth, and forcing them to quit jobs they love. The problem with flexible working when you get promoted, and how this is driving the gender pay gap and lack of equity in leadership roles. Men play a key role in changing the conversation about this in the workplace. How we need to rethink what 'allyship' really means. Why organisations need to rewrite the rules on how work works, no longer designing senior positions that rely on outdated assumptions about domestic responsibilities.

1 New Research: Imposter Syndrome Is One Of Three Hidden Causes Of The Gender Pay Gap [Episode 67] 20:48
We've just published the 2024 Imposter Syndrome research study . And part of it looks into the role of imposter syndrome in the gender pay gap and gender equality and diversity initiatives in general.

These episodes are going to be slightly shorter than usual because there are four of them coming out in one go. In this episode we're looking at three hidden causes of the gender pay gap, which very few organisations are addressing, which is why we're not making progress. The shocking update from the Fawcett Society shows that the UK's Gender Pay Gap has actually widened in 2024, so what we're doing isn't working. It's time to find out why.

This is a special episode today for World Menopause Day. Did you know that perimenopause is one of the biggest trigger points for imposter syndrome, according to our research study, causing talented women to leave not just their job, but even the career that they loved? This special episode of the Ditching Imposter Syndrome podcast is both for women who are going through the perimenopause to explain why it's triggering imposter syndrome that may previously have been dormant for you... ... And it's also for those who love them, who work with them, for their employers, to find out how to spot the warning signs that someone might need some additional support to stop the cycle and to create lasting change. You are losing from your organisation, many of your best women leaders just at the point where they're about to do their best work to make the biggest contribution of their career due to a combination of perimenopause and impostor syndrome. In this special episode, we're going to talk about how to spot the warning signs that imposter syndrome and perimenopause might be creating a secret storm for yourself or for people you care about. Seven reasons why this happens. This is science based. This is about biology and the research we've done into imposter syndrome. My top advice, which, spoiler alert, in case you don't get to listen to the end, is do not make drastic decisions. Deal with the root causes instead. And you might be amazed how often that decision then changes. And we're going to wrap up with what you can do as an employer or a colleague or a loved one. So there is this perfect storm effect that happens between perimenopause and imposter syndrome. Resources: The 2024 Imposter Syndrome Research Study - get the white paper Episode 33: Why Imposter Syndrome Makes Your Mind Go Blank In Meetings Get certified as an Imposter Syndrome Practitioner or an Imposter Syndrome Master Coach Key Takeaways: Perimenopause can significantly trigger dormant imposter syndrome, impacting women's careers and mental health. Understanding the biological changes during perimenopause is crucial for addressing imposter syndrome effectively. Employers should recognize the signs of imposter syndrome in talented women during perimenopause. High cortisol levels due to stress can exacerbate symptoms of both perimenopause and imposter syndrome. Addressing imposter syndrome can improve workplace performance and support women navigating perimenopause. Proactively supporting women in clearing imposter syndrome is essential for retaining top talent.…

One of the most common questions I get asked about Imposter Syndrome is how you can spot the warning signs. They're masters of disguise. So, back in 2018, I used our long-term research studies into Imposter Syndrome to create the 4 Ps of Imposter Syndrome model. By looking for differences in these 4 Ps, it helps you to spot the early warning signs of Imposter Syndrome, both in yourself and in others. Now taught at universities and cited in PhDs, the 4 Ps of Imposter Syndrome is an incredibly useful pre-diagnostic for Imposter Syndrome, used by individuals, coaches and managers worldwide, every single day. But there's more! Here's what's waiting for you today: The 4 Ps of Imposter Syndrome What are the 4 Ps of Imposter Syndrome? How can you spot them, in yourself in others? How can you use them to predict your stress response? What's their little-known role in performance, productivity and team dynamics? And what can you do if you realise you're running all 4?

1 The 3 Pillars Of Imposter Syndrome & Burnout (And Why It's Not Your Fault You Can't Shake It) [Episode 48] 23:22
Who is really to blame for you experiencing imposter syndrome? This is an important question that I recently answered at a Q&A session. This episode is for everyone who feels like they have tried everything to fix imposter syndrome for themselves or their team and it hasn’t worked. It's likely to be because they're only addressing one of the three pillars - I spill the beans on those during the episode. 71% of your team is experiencing toxic resilience right now and feeling the need to cover up and carry on as though nothing is wrong. This leads to them operating on a fight, flight or freeze response which makes burnout and imposter syndrome so much worse. Listen now to discover how the three key pillars of Imposter Syndrome are getting in the way of preventing imposter syndrome, and what you can do about it, even in the next few weeks. Plus, I’ll share how you can become a beacon of hope for others. What you’ll discover: Why your habits give you the power to press pause on Imposter Syndrome and turn down the dial How imposter is context-dependent and removing yourself from the situation can temporarily change how you feel, but doesn't actually fix anything What the Three Pillars of Imposter Syndrome™ are and what you can do about them Which of these has the biggest impact on your experience imposter syndrome Why you need to be aware of toxic resilience in the workplace and how this is contributing to imposter syndrome How the office environment and layout might be contributing to imposter syndrome The real reason you have toxic team members and bosses Why imposter syndrome is holding back your DE&I initiatives Useful Resources: The 2022 Imposter Syndrome & Burnout Research Study How the Natural Resilience Method® addresses all 3 pillars Calculator: what are Imposter Syndrome & burnout likely to be costing your teams?

Do you want to offer more than a 'tea and sympathy' approach to your colleagues or clients with imposter syndrome? 25% of your team are actively thinking about quitting their job every single week as a result of imposter syndrome. Yet, untrained line managers, HR, and mental health first aiders are at the frontline of trying to fix their colleagues' pain. In this episode, I take you through why tea and sympathy is an essential first step and what needs to come next to start clearing imposter syndrome, which is often caused by complex trauma, rather than a mindset-level issue. Listen now to find everything you need to know about how you can help people with imposter syndrome beyond sharing the war wounds of your own experience. What you’ll discover: Why tea and sympathy is only a first step and what else you can offer to support your colleagues or clients The impacts of normalising imposter syndrome Why your team are stuck in survival mode, using coping strategies to deal with it and are losing productivity as a result The dangers of an untrained person trying to fix the deep causes of imposter syndrome and how this could be making everything worse Why we shouldn’t be using mindset approaches for imposter syndrome Why you need to fix your own imposter syndrome before you try help others Key questions to ask when looking for imposter syndrome training (and red flags to watch out for).
