💬 Episode Notes:
Imposter Syndrome is a persistent fear of being “found out” despite evidence of competence.
It often maps to the insecurity of “I’m not enough.”
Asking for help feels risky because it may expose perceived inadequacy.
Positive feedback is hard to accept or believe for those with Imposter Syndrome.
There’s a misalignment between outward persona and inner self-perception.
The ongoing anxiety is draining and fuels indecision.
Fear of being wrong prevents commitment and decision-making.
Step one: pause and build a case against your self-doubt.
Bring objectivity, identify your value, and highlight it to push back on IS.
Self-awareness is essential; Imposter Syndrome can resurface unexpectedly.
It isn’t something to “cure,” but something to manage.
