    Today on the show:  Before we talk about Imposter Syndrome, we’ll start the show with our “No Dumb Questions” segment. What questions should you be asking when interviewing for Financial Advisors? There's 3 crucial things you need to make sure you know before you sign up with any advisor and today CFP Erica Cummings from The Harmony Financial Wellness Group at RBC Wealth Management will explain what they are. Imposter Syndrome: “Anxiety or self-doubt that results from persistently undervaluing one’s competence and active role in achieving success, while falsely attributing one's accomplishments to luck or other external forces.” Imposter Syndrome keeps coming up in conversation, especially now when more and more people are changing direction in their careers. So I thought it would be good to revisit an interview we did with Mary Braunschneider a few months ago. What’s the best way to overcome Imposter Syndrome? btw- Congratulations to Mary, Since our last conversation, Mary has been promoted to VP of Sales at Shay Rowbottom Marketing.
