The Science Behind
Imposter Syndrome
A masterclass for coaches, trainers and consultants
who work with accomplished leaders.
THE CLIENT WE RECOGNISE
We all know this client.
Capable. Respected. Successful by every measure anyone else would use. And privately braced for the moment someone works out she doesn't belong there.
She has tried the confidence work. The extra qualification. Good coaching, and still the feeling comes back.
That isn't a failure of the coaching. It may be that we've been working on the wrong layer.
INSIDE THE MASTERCLASS
What we'll explore
Imposter syndrome is a nervous system response, not a mindset or confidence problem. In this session I'll walk you through the science behind that, and what it changes about how we work.
And why overperformance is so often mistaken for excellence.
Especially when the nervous system is already braced for threat.
And the different protective patterns that sit inside them.
A closer look at one familiar pattern and what it may actually be protecting.
Why two clients can present with the same behaviour and still need us to understand something very different underneath it.
This isn't a session on how to coach. You already know how. It's about seeing more precisely what we're working with.

WHO IS THIS FOR
For practitioners who work with accomplished people
Experienced coaches, trainers and consultants who support high achievers and senior leaders. If your clients are accomplished and privately struggling, you'll recognise them in this session.
Some people come for their clients. Some come for themselves.
Both are welcome.
HOW WE'LL CLOSE
At the end, I'll share ClaytoGoldā„¢, the imposter syndrome assessment and practitioner certification I built from this work, for anyone who wants to take it further. It's in beta, with validation work underway, and I'll tell you exactly what that means.
No pressure and no obligation. The masterclass stands on its own.

I spent over 20 years leading support for Canadian Armed Forces families posted overseas, collecting awards and by all accounts successful. Privately, I felt I hadn't earned.
When coaching didn't help, I went looking in the science. What I found was that this was never a confidence problem. It was a nervous system doing exactly what it was built to do.
My journey resulted in my book, Now That the Candy's Gone, and eventually ClaytoGoldā„¢.
Iā€™d love to share what Iā€™ve learned about the science behind imposter syndrome in this session.
