77 | Kicking Imposter Syndrome To The Curb and Owning Everything That Makes You Great With Erin Breeden

In this week's episode, I spoke with Erin Breeden about “imposter syndrome”, what it is and how it shows itself in different ways.  Her journey took her into a successful career in marketing and public relations. She worked in public relations agencies, as a marketing director and an editor-in-chief of a bridal magazine.  While she loved each industry, Erin couldn’t find the job of her dreams that would use each skill set she had acquired.  She felt really stuck and wondered why she just wasn't happy in any of those roles that she loved and always feeling like an imposter. So she created it for herself, founding her own company, Blue Tide Creative, helping others tell their story and making sure their message matches their mission and get them out in front of their intended audience and most of all to be yourself because YOU ARE AMAZING!

In this episode, you will specifically learn how to…
