Alfreda shared a snapshot of her truth during a Power Conversation Live as we discussed Imposter Syndrome. She said, “I’ve been doing it so long that I don’t know how not to do it.” I was intrigued and wanted to explore the reality of imposter syndrome with her. Alfreda and I identify the foundation of being an imposter in our own lives often stems from childhood rejection and resentment of having to show up, dress the part and play the role, while experiencing undisclosed trauma, emotional feelings and inner turmoil that we don’t know how to share. In this episode, we explore into the mental, physical, and spiritual impact of not recognizing and believing in our true selves and abilities, even when our greatness is evident to others. Join Alfreda Boney and me for an honest and enriching conversation on self-belief, and lack there-of, and enjoying life despite the internal noise of self-doubt. By transparently addressing our truths and leaning on our support systems, we can overcome imposter syndrome and embrace our true potential. 🎧Enjoy the conversation🤎 🎙️Podcast 🔗👆🏾IN BIO OR 👇🏾- Available on all Podcast Channels 💕 Don’t forget to LIKE, SUBSCRIBE, SHARE and #jointheconversation in the comments.

In this episode, Susan emphasizes the importance of our perspective on setbacks and how it impacts our ability to move forward with power and gain control of our lives. When going back means moving forward, it's crucial to pause and reflect on why we've stalled. Fear of regression often holds us back, whether it's returning home or to a former job. But going back isn't failure—it's a chance to breathe, gain clarity, and strategically progress. Don't worry about perceptions; instead, focus on balance, goals, and support systems. Going backward helps us understand strengths and shed what's holding us back. It's a lifeline, not a sign of defeat. Embrace it, create a plan, and utilize the time to build mental strength, stability, and apply valuable wisdom. Going back can pave the way for a stronger, more prepared future.

Join Susan in this insightful episode as she talks about two powerful words that can change your life, “Free Yourself”. Freeing yourself from self-imposed boundaries, relentless criticism, and suffocating limitations positions you to take ownership of your life. Susan shares how refusing to entertain negative thoughts, and instead, believing fiercely in your capacity for greatness, you stop settling for anything less than the absolute best in every aspect of your life.  Freeing yourself allows your worth and potential to become grounded in your belief that you deserve greatness in relationships, in your career, and beyond! Susan shares the experience that often the first step of freeing ourselves is to not self-sabotage or let your own behavior stand in the way of your progress. Susan speaks passionately about the need to become courageous enough to stand boldly in your truth, stop seeking validation from others and give yourself the permission to pursue your life unapologetically.  The conversation speaks to your ability to achieve anything you set your mind to. Embrace your journey with unwavering determination, step by step, towards the direction you know you're meant to go, fueled by your inner strength and conviction.  What is holding you back? Free yourself by Identifying and taking action to liberate yourself. It is the ultimate gift you can give yourself to enjoy the fullness of life. #freeyourself #jointheconversation 👉🏾Available on all YouTube and all Podcast Channels 👉🏾Don’t forget to SUBSCRIBE, LIKE & SHARE😊 👉🏾Join a community designed for women to thrive in life!👸🏽🔝💞🤎 ⭐️Website: https://susanrappleton.com/  ⭐️Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ ⭐️Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ TheSRABrand/ ⭐️The Life Affirming Collection (Merch): https://thesrastore.com/ ⭐️Website: Leadership Strategy & Coaching: https://appletoncommunication.com/ #conversationsthatmatter #womenwhothrive #evolving #powerconversationsandconnections #susanrappleton  #healing #selfdiscovery

In this episode, Susan discusses the key to overcoming adversity: admitting our challenge, understanding its impact and transparent self-conversations that uncover our inner strength and belief needed to come out and live victoriously. When she found herself a single mom, facing the death of her husband, after relocating to Florida, she had two choices, give up or get up. Redefining happiness and working towards fulfillment involved conversations with God, addressing feelings of loneliness, anger and confronting the emotional hurdles. Susan tells how embracing the hard moments, seeking support, and reframing our perspective are all necessary to evolve into better. For her, deciding to be fulfilled rather than chasing constant happiness was key. Susan reminds us that when facing adversity, we must recognize when enough is enough, and begin to take action, one step at a time. We can then stay committed to the path of healing and wholeness that contributes to lasting progress.
