For his May 27, 2026 podcast, Justin Janowski, founder of Faith2Influence< interviewed Mark on how shame and imposter syndrome often show up in business through fear of marketing, fear of making an offer, fear of being seen, and the belief that you need to be perfect before you can help others.
If you are a Christian coach, consultant, entrepreneur, speaker, or leader who has ever wondered whether you are good enough, qualified enough, or ready enough to serve others, this conversation will help you name what may be holding you back and take a practical next step forward.
In this episode of Sales Training for Christian Coaches, Justin and Mark cover the following:
- Why many coaches are called to serve people who are facing struggles they have personally overcome
- How toxic shame differs from guilt
- Why shame often creates the belief that “I am not enough”
- How imposter syndrome can keep Christian coaches from marketing, selling, and serving
- Why awareness is the first step toward transformation
- How vulnerability can deepen trust and connection with your audience
- Why your past struggles may become part of your message
- A practical question to ask when shame is keeping you stuck
