Have you ever caught yourself questioning whether you really deserve your achievements, or wondered if everyone else is just more capable than you? In this episode of Headflex, co-hosts Rebecca Walker and Diane Williams explore the many layers of imposter syndrome. Unpacking what it really is (and what it isn’t), how it shows up differently for each of us, and how even high achievers can be plagued by self-doubt. Through candid conversation and years of coaching experience, Rebecca and Diane explore the myths, triggers, and sometimes surprising ways imposter syndrome drives our behaviour.
Tune in to hear insights on why imposter feelings can be so hard to shake, how our upbringing and work cultures play a part, and what practical steps you can start taking today to dial down that critical inner voice.
