Do you give time and space to that other voice in your head telling you that you are not good enough? I mean, those big audacious goals that you have written in your journal remain exactly there because you keep asking yourself, “who am I to want to be able to do this thing?” Actually who are you, NOT to want these things. Listen to this episode to learn how Arlan Hamilton has overcome imposter syndrome to be the bad ass entrepreneur she now is. Here are three reasons why you should listen to the full episode:    Learn how Arlan deals with Imposter Syndrome.                                              .  Get insight into Arlan’s latest venture dealing with Fractional Employment. Find out Arlan’s Jamaican connection.    Episode Highlights About Hire Runner Runner was formed in 2021 addressing a pain point that many companies have, that is needing that extra executive support but not being able to or wanting to bring on a full-time salaried employee right away. Hire takes on fractions employees to assist entrepreneurs on as needed. There are multiple ways that Runners can curate their career. The Gig work economy has changed and created many things; what was missing was the access to benefits.   Where did Arlan’s love for Startups come from? The innovation that she tapped into as a child made her curious about people. At around 30 she had moments of revelation that showed her the disconnect with those who were part of the tech space and she wanted to change that. Part of her mission is to be someone who catalyses the brilliant minds from people taken from all walks of life.   How has imposter syndrome affected Arlan’s entrepreneurial journey? Arlan has admitted that imposter syndrome affected her when she was younger. We don’t have enough time in this world to spend our time wondering if we are in the right room or not. Black women have so much time to make up for. We don’t have enough time to wonder if we are ready for that role. 4 Powerful Quotes from This Episode “It doesn’t get easier, it becomes more worth it.” “Now with all the policies in place today, it is common decency to ensure that people working within your company are taken care of and we are happy to be on this side of history.” “The startup lane is such a new frontier and could be a leveling playfield.” “I want to be someone that catalyses the brilliant minds who take us into the future. And these brilliant minds are attached to people taken from all walks of life and not just a chosen few who get to represent who we are.”     About Arlan Hamilton  Arlan is an investor and the Founder, HireRunner and managing partner of Backstage Capital. In May 2020, Hamilton released her first book from Penguin Random House entitled It's About Damn Time, which is based on her personal journey into entrepreneurship and venture capital.
