“You get to create your business in your way. But first you have to tap into, like, what is it that you want and what is it that you need from your business?" — Stacey Hagen

Self-trust can be a powerful antidote to imposter syndrome, which affects 80% of people. It involves being skilled in one's field and relying on oneself to handle situations like trolls or lack of engagement. By trusting oneself and relying on oneself, individuals can overcome imposter syndrome and take the next step in their careers. This inner work is crucial for success and resilience in any situation.

In this episode, Stacey Hagen, a trauma-informed business coach, discusses the importance of self-trust in business. She shares her journey from corporate marketing to coaching, highlighting the challenges of imposter syndrome and practical strategies for building self-trust, such as setting boundaries, finding community support, and incorporating individual preferences.

Takeaways to listen for:

Community and Support Systems: When you start your journey as an entrepreneur, it's important to find your support network. This will help with personal and professional growth
Setting Boundaries and Managing Client Expectations: There will be times when you want to say YES to everything but why is it important to set boundaries?
Daily Practices for Building Self-Trust: It’s important to take breaks, reset your mind and listen to your body to maintain a growth mindset and self-trust.
