Description

Welcome to The Resilient Learner Podcast!

We help learners of all ages cultivate the adaptable mindsets and skills necessary to carve their own path in their education and careers.

This week, we're going to be getting acquainted with the concept of 'impostor feelings' (also known as impostor syndrome or impostor phenomenon). This is a VERY COMMON SENSATION of feeling like all the successes you have achieved are BS and someone will discover your horrible secret one day and kick you out (of your job, career, class, etc.). In part 1, we're going to discuss the 5 styles of impostor feelings and how knowing which 'style' best describes your situation can help you fight back against these pervasive feelings so you can continue to do the important work you are here to do.

If you're new to the podcast, The Resilient Learner Podcast may be for you if you relate to any of the following:

• You love to learn and are currently trying to learn something (start a new career/major/school/degree/class) but you're feeling fearful/stuck/unclear about how to proceed.
• You lack clarity about your desires, goals, purpose and don't  know where to begin to figure it all out.
  
• You feel that your education did NOT prepare you to be successful in the 'real world' and want to do something about it now.
• You have impostor feelings and self-doubt is eating you alive and limiting your professional opportunities.
  
• You were a high achiever in K-12 and labeled as having 'a lot of potential', yet find yourself stuck and dissatisfied with your education and/or career.
  
• You were very good at following paths created for you by authority figures, but feel incapable of creating your own 'life syllabus'.
