Feeling like you’ve got to handle everything on your own? It’s a mindset trap that holds so many business owners back—Jung calls it the Soloist, one of his 5 Imposter Syndrome Archetypes. Trust me, I’ve been there too. We often feel pressured to be everything—the strategist, the marketer, the accountant, and the visionary. But here’s the truth: trying to juggle all those roles isn’t just exhausting—it’s unnecessary. You’re not meant to do it alone.
The idea that you need to balance every aspect of your business, family life, and personal growth is a limiting belief that keeps many entrepreneurs stuck. I totally get it. Independence feels empowering, but there’s immense value in seeking support. When we lean into support, we create space for growth.
When I started my journey, I hesitated to ask for help. Celebrated for my independence growing up, I struggled with asking for too much or fearing rejection. But guess what? People love helping! Once I allowed myself to accept support, everything shifted. The feelings of inadequacy that once held me back were just subconscious fears. In shared experiences, I found a strength I didn’t know I had. When you break through the belief that you have to go it alone, the possibilities for growth become clear.
During President Obama’s administration, women in his cabinet developed a strategy called amplification. When one woman made a key point, another would repeat it and give credit. This not only reinforced the idea but ensured the original speaker was recognised.
This strategy highlights the importance of amplifying your message—having allies that ensure your ideas are acknowledged and your voice is heard. Imagine applying this to your business: a supportive community that amplifies your message, recognises your ideas, and fosters a culture of collaboration.
Women in business thrive when we amplify each other’s voices. Building a network that champions your ideas leads to shared success and growth. Here’s how you can start amplifying your own voice (and others):
Lift others' ideas: Acknowledge valuable insights and give credit where it’s due.
Find your allies: Surround yourself with like-minded entrepreneurs who support each other.
Build a collaborative culture: Create a business environment that thrives on mutual support.
Success in business doesn’t happen in isolation. A strong support system provides:
Clarity: Sometimes, hearing the right insight at the right time makes all the difference.
Accountability: Staying on track, even when motivation dips.
Fresh Perspectives: Outsiders can help you see blind spots in your business strategy.
Celebration: A supportive community will cheer for your wins, both big and small.
The right support not only impacts your business—it transforms how you show up for your family, community, and yourself. This ripple effect begins the moment you embrace the power of support and collaboration.
