In today's episode Kate talks about Imposter Syndrome and some suggestions on how to manage it. Here are some of the key takeaways from this episode:
- "The persistent inability to believe that one's success is deserved or has to be legitimately achieved as a result of ones own efforts or skills".
- Constant self doubt that "I am not good enough" or "I am going to get found out as not the brilliant person they think I am".
- Most women (and some men) experience this.
- Many very successful women have openly talked about Imposter Syndrome.
- Talking with others can help.
- How Imposter Syndrome causes self sabotage.
- Identify where the self-doubts stem from - What voice do you hear when listening to them.
- Give the inner voices a name - thank them and move on.
- Recognise and acknowledge your achievements.
