5 ways to get rid of Impostor Syndrome
Manage episode 510168461 series 3686767
We dismantle imposter syndrome with five practical tools shaped by lived experience, from naming the feeling to shifting from self-focus to service. Stories of interviews, tech glitches, and immigrant pressure show how progress, evidence, and purpose restore confidence.
• naming imposter syndrome to create distance
• redefining success as progress not perfection
• reframing failure as feedback
• building a brag file to store evidence
• normalising discomfort as a growth signal
• shifting from me to service in meetings and talks
• practical examples: frozen slides, shaky voices, immigrant expectations
• recap of five tools and how to use them
