Today’s guest is Dr. Lisa Orbé – Austin, an Imposter Syndrome subject matter expert that is here to help us overcome imposter syndrome. This episode is one of my favorites because we unravel the nuances of imposter syndrome and discuss the tools provided in Dr. Lisa’s book, Own Your Greatness, Overcome Imposter Syndrome, Beat Self-Doubt, and Succeed in Life, which she co-wrote with her partner, Dr. Richard Orbé – Austin. Dr. Lisa shares her personal experience with Imposter Syndrome and her journey to owning her greatness! In this episode, we discuss how family dynamics impact our lives, the imposter cycle that keeps us trapped, the 3 – C’s framework to overcome imposter syndrome, and Dr. Lisa provides insight into the development and patterns of narcissistic behavior. This episode is amazing and I hope you enjoy the ambient sounds of New York City in the background! With this episode, I am doing a Giveaway of the physical book and Dr. Lisa is adding an online toolkit! To enter, visit the LPDcast Instagram @LPDcast today.
