In this transformative episode of The ART of Online Course Creation, Shannon sits down with bold leadership coach and people strategy expert Lindsay White to dismantle one of the most overused phrases in the entrepreneurial world: imposter syndrome.
They unpack why the term doesn't tell the full story—and what’s really going on inside our heads when we hesitate to hit publish on that online course, avoid showing up publicly, or hold back from claiming our expertise.
Lindsay introduces listeners to Positive Intelligence and the concept of the internal saboteur—that critical inner voice that keeps us playing small. Together, Shannon and Lindsay explore how to recognize these saboteurs, reframe limiting beliefs, and build the mental muscles needed to step into leadership with confidence and clarity.
What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
✅ Why “imposter syndrome” might be holding you back more than it’s helping
✅ The neuroscience behind self-doubt—and how to rewire your brain in just 6 weeks
✅ The subtle lies your saboteur tells you (and how to spot them)
✅ Why confidence doesn't require perfection—or knowing everything
✅ How course creators can reclaim their authority and own their expertise
