SUMMARY:Imposter Syndrome: Why Success Still Doesn’t Feel Like Enough
DESCRIPTION:This session offers practical ways to deal with the ups and downs of business ownership\n\n\nRunning a small business means making a lot of decisions\, wearing many hats\, and often figuring things out as you go. Even when things are going well\, it can still feel uncertain behind the scenes. Many business owners quietly wrestle with self doubt and question whether they’re truly cut out for this work. \nThis presentation explores imposter syndrome through the lens of small business ownership\, why it shows up\, how growth can trigger it\, and the quiet fear many people carry that others will eventually find out they’re a fraud. It also offers practical ways to work with these thoughts instead of letting them run the show. If you’ve ever felt like you’re making it up as you go\, you’re not alone and there’s nothing wrong with you. \n \nPresented by: Candice Rousseau MSW\, BSW\, RSW; Founder and owner of Reflect Reset Renew Therapy Services. \n\n\n\n**Please complete all sections of the registration\, including additional questions.
