Do you ever go into a job or situation feeling there is a mis-match between what you’re being asked to do, and what you feel able to do? Do you ever look at other people and think they are like the swan, serenely gliding over the challenges of life whilst you're struggling to stay afloat? You’re not alone. In fact, you might be surprised to discover how common this is. Underneath that feeling there are likely to be other issues, a major one being confidence.

In this podcast, originally recorded in May 2023, coach, consultant and coach supervisor Jeremy J Lewis explores how we can approach challenges by drawing on resources from our past, present and future. Jez shares a model from Peter Hawkins’ book Coaching Mentoring and Organisational Consultancy which looks at the three dimensions of authority, presence, and impact. Through this you can expose what your Imposter is telling you, how to identify your own personal sources of authority instead of being blinded by what you see as those of people around you, and where to find the courage to shape a different future for yourself.

Jez, Fiona and Geoff give a number of examples of how these ideas can be applied, drawn from their current and past working lives and share some great tips and insights which you can apply in your own work context.
