Impostor Syndrome: True Tales, Tricks, and Tactics for When You’re Feeling Fraudulent

Podcast

You know the feeling, right? You finally achieve something — a new job, a promotion, an award — and while you know you should be proud, you just feel like a big phony who will soon be exposed. You feel like you don’t really belong there and you suspect that someone else should be there instead. It’s called Impostor Syndrome and it’s more common than you might think. We’re joined by Dr. Valerie Young to talk about who it effects and what to do about it. And we’re joined by you, our listeners, sharing stories of Impostor Syndrome at its most ludicrous and the unorthodox but effective ways you’ve found to treat it.
