Tame Imposter Syndrome & Your Anxiety Beast

Here’s what I know to be true: brilliant women doubt themselves far more than they should.
Looking confident and feeling confident are two very different things.

I help high-achieving women – corporate professionals and entrepreneurs – move from secretly feeling like a fraud to the freedom to lead, speak up, and stop playing small.

Does any of this sound familiar?

You’re always waiting for them to realize you don’t really know what you’re doing. Then they’ll call the cops, take all of their money back, and put you in jail
When you succeed or get recognition, instead of pride, you think “Whew. Fooled them again…but what about next time? Surely my luck will run out soon.”
You often wake up and feel instantly behind, anxious, and like your “to-do” list is The Enemy.
You do so much retail therapy the UPS guys know how you take your morning coffee.
You snap at the kids because you forget the person in charge is the one who reads the bedtime stories and isn’t really running a taxi service for teens.
When you feel calm or peaceful, it’s just weird, and you think your brain is scamming you.
Everything your partner says and does annoys you, so you cope with Chunky Monkey. Staring at the bottom of the cardboard pint, you ask yourself, “Am I in a throuple with Ben & Jerry now?”
You’re living some version of “All work and no play makes Jill a dull girl.”
Your anxiety or stress level is so high you feel like you’re playing Whack-A-Mole with your hair on fire most of the time.
You know deep down you’re meant for so much more.

You’re not crazy. You’re not broken. And you’re definitely not alone.

You’re likely struggling with imposter syndrome and the world has taught you to normalize it, silence it, and push through it.

Learn how to leave it behind and start making bold moves, speaking up, feeling more confident, have peace in your own mind, body, AND YOUR LIFE.

As an expert in anxiety, here's what I know:

Anxiety is a normal response to a crazy world and hustle culture, but it doesn’t have to be the default response.
72% of high-achieving women struggle with imposter syndrome, AKA “feeling like a fraud”.
You don’t have a confidence problem, you have a misinformation problem
Many women struggle with imposter syndrome and don’t know how to get out of it because most of the advice out there doesn’t work very well, and then blames you for not feeling better.
The things you do to keep “them” from finding out the truth about you is part of why you feel stuck and like an imposter.
You believe your thoughts and feelings about being a fraud are proof that you are a fraud. That couldn’t be further from the truth.
You have magic and strength inside you, and it’s screaming to come out.
Once you understand what rea competence is and know how to leash your anxiety, you will be unstoppable.
Women will change and heal the world, but we can’t do that when we’re bogged down with emotional baggage…

Learn how to harness your subconscious mind to work for you, instead of against you, and have the life you dream of and deserve.

This is the work we’ll do together in my 1:1 coaching so you can cultivate power, confidence, and joy from the inside out with a journey that’s customized for you and your goals, without needing years of therapy, or to sacrifice yourself or the people you love.

When I first started seeing [Shelley] … I was completely unsure of myself as a person. She has helped me gain invaluable tools on my healing journey, she provides a nonjudgement ear and relatable perspective… I began reaching out to Shelley whenever I need anchoring and grounding in my life, and seeing her always reminds me of how deeply cared for I am… When I first started working with her I had no sense of self value or worth… I can say that I’ve discovered facets of myself that I never thought I would. I’ve learned how to start loving myself and I think that has been the most valuable thing Shelley has offered me.

I was surprised to realize that my way of thinking/looking at things can change pretty easily. Being able to self-support myself throughout this process has made it easier to keep newly learned techniques in mind when I need them. I was surprised by the noticeable changes in my thought process. I also appreciated that it’s not weird and spooky. That you allow people to proceed at their own pace.
