🤥 The Expert Myth

😱 Why Your Imposter Syndrome is Lying To You

A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away, there lived a bunch of brilliant, quirky individuals.

They were called the multipotentialites. 

These folks were the Jedi Knights in a world filled with stormtroopers.

They were a versatile, creative, spiritual and rebellious tribe.

These multipotentialites would look around the galaxy and see so-called experts flaunting their shiny credentials and decades of specialist experience.

The myth of the expert loomed large in the galaxy.

This made our multipotentialite heroes feel like imposters. 

They felt like they were drowning in a sea of self-doubt. Their brilliant ideas suffocated under the weight of societal expectations. 

The fear of being exposed as frauds consumed their souls, paralyzing them into inaction. 

They watched as the specialists strutted around, basking in the glow of their singular expertise, while our multipotentialite heroes were left in the shadows, questioning their self-worth.

The Call of the Mentor

One day, a wise, rebellious mentor called Badass Yoda appeared and dropped a bomb bursting with truth: 

“ An expert, you need not be, to make a difference. From zero to one, take them you can. 

Solve a problem, you must. Help others do the same, you will.

At zero, you were. Overcame the challenges, you did, to get to one.

An expert at getting from zero to one, you are."

Multipotentialite Jedi Minds?

Blown. 🤯

They didn’t need to be an expert in one thing to be successful, they needed to embrace their authentic selves.

Badass Yoda had introduced the concept of taking clients from zero to one. 

Not zero to ten, not zero to a hundred—just zero to one. 

And guess what? 

It was a game-changer.

Because of this revelation, our multipotentialite heroes began seeing their diverse skills and experiences in a new light. 

They realised their multiple skills and divergent thinking were assets that solved problems in unique ways.

They were experts at getting from zero to one.

Why?

Because they had successfully gone from zero to one.

They could help clients authentically walk the same steps.

Here’s why this approach is pure gold: It is authentic.

And the multipotentialites realised they couldn’t be authentic and imposters simultaneously.

So they doubled down on being their true creative selves.

And wrote down all the problems they had faced.

Zero to One Blocks

If you’re struggling to articulate your experience answer these questions:

👉 What were your core desires/ transformation when you were at zero?

❌ What limiting beliefs did you overcome to get from zero to one?

❌ What initially stopped you from taking action?

👉 What trigger jolted you into action?

❌ What creative blocks did you experience going from zero to one?

❌ E.g fear of failure, perfectionism, self-doubt etc and how did you overcome them?

✅ This is your authentic lead magnet, your marketing and content storytelling. 👆

By using your fears, insecurities and challenges as content ideas you are embracing your authentic creator archetype.

Zero to One Solutions

✅ What skills did you acquire going from zero to one?

✅ What tactics worked for you?

✅ What processes were impactful?

✅ Which content resonated the most?

✅ What storytelling frameworks did you employ?

This is the solution you package to help clients to get from zero to one. ☝️

This insight was a perspective shift for our multipotentialite heroes.

You see, most people in Galaxy get stuck thinking externally. They looked externally for:

• Meaning and purpose

• Their niche

• Validation

And this kept them lost, aimlessly wandering trying to fill the voids with people pleasing and materialism.

The multipotentialites were smart.

They realised that they had all the answers inside of them.

They didn’t need to find their niche, they were their niche.

They stopped worrying about what the Empire thought of them. 

Because of this newfound confidence, our multipotentialite heroes embraced their creativity and multi-disciplinary thinking. 

And they realised their authenticity was the purpose they had been trying to find all this time.

They took on more projects that allowed them to learn and grow. 

The more they grew, the more they taught others.  The more they helped others the more meaning and purpose they experienced in their work.

They shared their journeys openly, building trust and showing clients they were relatable and approachable.

Until finally, the myth of the expert was shattered. 

The multipotentialites realised they didn’t need to be experts in one thing to make a difference. 

They just had to be themselves, and help others overcome the same challenges they had faced.

So, fellow multipotentialite, remember this: you have the power to make a difference. 

You have the power to feel seen and heard, by helping others feel seen and heard.

You have the power to connect with others with your stories.

Niche up your skills and passions to create solutions.

Embrace your creative and problem-solving superpowers, take clients from zero to one, and start making an impact today. 

The galaxy needs your unique blend of creativity, versatility, and passion.

May the Force be with you

Peace out ✌️
