Are all of your successes more because of timing or a “fluke”?
Are you waiting for someone to discover you really aren’t good at what you do?

Well you may suffer from impostor syndrome.
It doesn’t have to sit with you all day, every day. It can be sporadic, coming and going as it seems.
I was fortunate enough to host the awarding winning radio program, Taking Care of Business and have on my panel:
- Jacki Mitchell – from Brandstorm Marketing and regular host of Taking Care of Business
- Fiona Redding – from The Happiness Hunter and the Business Addicts Community and
