Have you ever achieved something you've worked incredibly hard for… only to feel like you didn't deserve it?
In this episode, I share one of the most surreal experiences of my career - being recognized as one of Photon Legal's Top 40 Innovative Legal Leaders - and why that achievement unexpectedly became the first time I truly experienced Imposter Syndrome.
But this episode isn't just about self-doubt. It's about where imposter syndrome actually comes from, how it's different from everyday insecurities, the stories we unknowingly inherit about success, recognition, and worthiness and why many of us spend our lives believing we don't belong in rooms we've rightfully earned a place in.
If you've ever felt like your success was "just luck", or that someone was eventually going to find out you weren't good enough, this episode is for you.
If this episode resonated with you, I'd love to hear your story. Have you ever experienced imposter syndrome? Or have you ever realised that you were the one standing in your own way? Share your thoughts in the comments or connect with me on Instagram.
