Imposter Syndrome

Am I Better, or Am I Broken?

It's been almost 3 years since I posted a new blog article on this site. My last post was an announcement about my then-new SaaS Startup, inspired by a desire to make All-Day, Every-Day coaching, available to those who wanted it most, but who often couldn't afford the necessarily-prohibitive cost. My idea, "The Doing Experiment" was in ideation phase, and I'd taken the bold plunge of investing my full-time effort, and a good deal of money, into creating a prototype along with the other necessities for pre-seed funding.


Unfortunately, a series of extreme personal challenges dogged my steps during this new beginning, followed by a family tragedy that resulted in my decision to table the project until after my boys and I regained stability.


I must say, I'm not sure I'm there yet. I'm still rising from the ashes. I lost the love the love of my life, and my boys, their father. My eldest is now fully independent, and his younger brother about to graduate University. These are complicated transitions for a stay-at-home, home-schooling mother - transitions I expected to make together, with my husband. However unwillingly, in the timeless words of Celine Dion, my heart must go on.


I haven't decided yet if I'll try again at the SaaS. But for now, I shall return to coaching. I've offered my regrets to all but a few clients over the last 2 years, as I simply felt too broken myself to support others in the way I once did. I confess some trepidation as I announce my return to practice now. Am I really ready?


While these doubts are real, I believe the truth is that I have MORE to offer, not less. Prior to this life-shattering loss, I'd already overcome some herculean challenges. I became a coach because I'd spent 30 years crafting Practical Strategies to Systematize the Exodus from Chaos to Accomplishment. My coaching was successful, and I had clients in over 6 countries, with not even one dissatisfied customer. And now I've once again survived a gut-wrenching freefall, picked myself up and as always, am using my own* strategies to make these shaky legs forge a new path.


So there it is -- my exposé! I've a wee case of "Imposter Syndrome" but if you like the description (elsewhere on this site) of what I do, I'm ready once again, to do it with you.


* "My Own" Strategies - are as new as last week, and as old as rocks. I routinely borrow from thousands of experts, modern and ancient, attributing freely, and modifying creatively.
