When shit gets real, imposter syndrome immediately steps in. The fear of failure, the fear of trying, possibly the fear of success—we’ve all been there (or are still there). That’s why we’re breaking down how imposter syndrome feels and now to navigate it when it comes up for you.

Imposter Syndrome is defined as a psychological pattern that instills doubt and fear that you are not the right person to accomplish a specific task, or thrive in a specific role, because you don’t want to be seen as a “fraud”.

But here’s the thing—we have to identify why we’re feeling this way, get honest and vulnerable with ourselves (and others that we may want to address this with), and redirect our energies into opportunities that make us feel more empowered and confident. The need to be self-aware and conscious to identify your strengths and weaknesses is a huge part of this journey. We need to learn how to play on our strengths, and get support for growth in our weaknesses (so you can turn them into strengths!).

Whether you are suffering from imposter syndrome in your career, at home, or in just being yourself, even if you are the CEO of your own project and feeling this, we’re here for you.
