You're Not Qualified - A Podcast Courtney Heitter
-
- Arts
This podcast highlights the amazing people who are making the world a better place, but are traditionally unqualified for the way they are contributing. Imposter syndrome is a very real phenomenon that stops people from believing in themselves and taking action to contribute to the world in amazing ways. We all need to bring our unique interests and talents to the table to make a positive difference in the world - you don't need to be the top expert in your field and you don't need to have that perfect degree. Just begin. And then keep going.

You're Qualified - To Conquer Low Self Esteem
How we feel about ourselves, and what we believe we can accomplish, drive just about every decision in our lives. If you are hardwired to tell yourself "I really can't do that... I don't have what it takes" - then this is the episode for you. Self esteem, especially in women, can feel like it is at arms length and impossible to reach. Let's rewrite that narrative with Gwendolyn, from the Good Is In The Details podcast.
Go do everything you think is "out of reach."

You're Qualified - To Overcome Your Mental Hurdles [Endurance Series]
Mindset is everything in endurance sports. If you think to yourself - "I cannot do this, it is too hard" - guess what, that is not factual. That is your imposter syndrome talking. Your body can go a lot longer, and a lot harder, than your mind will allow you to believe. So... move around that hurdle. Need help? How about a mindset coach?
Courtney chats with Shannon Vit, a mindset coach for athletes. We cover how she helps athletes perform at their very best and overcome mental barriers, learn emotional regulation, resilience, and so much more.
Let's level up.

You're Qualified - To Become An Endurance Cyclist [Endurance Series]
Cycling from Alaska to Argentina may seem like something a "normal" person could never do... but James Benson King is here to tell you - it IS something that YOU can do. Endrance cycling is not for the faint of heart, but around here we are brave and do things we aren't "qualified" for all the time. So, go find a cause that lights a fire in you and do something you never thought you could. Right after you listen to James' experience with cycling across continents for a cause close to him, of course.

You're Qualified - To Become A Runner [Endurance Series]
Becoming a runner is the beginning of many people's journey into becoming active. It is approachable, and has a low startup cost - (sometimes) you buy some running shoes, and you literally head out the door or jump on an (ideally not moving yet) treadmill and get to setting one foot in front of the other in a faster fashion than you usually do. Running is the gateway to fitness for so many people. But WHERE does one start when they want to begin their journey with a bit more structure? Well, howabout a running club?
Courtney chats with Beth, founder of Running Evolution, a running group and business with a ton of resources in the Seattle area. There are options if you are not in Seattle as well, so this is for YOU too! If you want a structured plan for a "couch to 5K plan", or if you really just want a buddy to cry with when those miles really hit you hard, running clubs are where its at.

You're Qualified - To Run A 100 Mile Ultra Marathon [Endurance Series]
Our minds are weak - we want to take the easy way out. We don't want to suffer. If we want to pursue endurance sports, we need to learn more about this weakness, and learn how to work with it and, sometimes, around it.
Join Courtney as she chats with Rafael Hidalgo, finisher of the 100 mile UTMB course in Chamonix, France, about what it takes to become an ultra runner and compete on one of the largest running stages in the world. Let's become smarter than our brains.

We Are Qualified - To Become Mountaineers [Endurance Series]
Hello, Imposters! Welcome to a special episode - the first solo episode of the You're Not Qualifed podcast.
Courtney walks through her mountaineering experience to date, lessons learned and stories about her trials by fire. From Mt. Saint Helens to Ecuador, development of physical and mental strength have been equally necessary to hone, but have been often elusive. A theme has also emerged... there will be tears.
Let's go climb mountains.
