In this episode of The Struggling Biz podcast show, we discuss the topic delivered to us by Todd Henry in his podcast show of The Accidental Creative of creative confidence for podcasters and entrepreneurs.

In Todd’s podcast episode, he describes three main problems that the professional creative and entrepreneur must deal with to cope with the problem of lacking creative confidence —

imposter syndrome
narrative fixation
risk delusion.

And after presenting and defining these three situations for ourselves, Todd then presents several solutions (at least one for each problem that creates a lack of creative confidence.

I strongly suggest that you consume this episode, so that you can understand how the lack of creative confidence can impact your podcasting and business efforts and could be an obstacle to your success.

In the meantime, if you wish to get more in-depth into the obstacle of imposter syndrome, I would like to refer you to a prior episode of the podcast show called Podcast Reporter, where we dealt with this topic of overcoming imposter syndrome in detail:

So we hope that you can recognize the three main problems and situations that Todd describes which can be an obstacle to your own creative confidence, and that you can overcome them to have a better business for your success. As you know, being an entrepreneur can be defined as one of the creatives that exist where that type of confidence is essential — from the planning, to the creation of the customer promise, the creation of solutions, the establishment of the processes to get your leads, get your customers, promote your value and deliver the customer promise in the execution of the delivery of your solution, and then the follow-on marketing and sales for your business.

So being a creative in the areas of building your small business and its solutions for your customers and then growing it for your success is essential. And you will need to address these types of obstacles to your creative confidence.

Thank you for your attention.
