Have you ever found yourself questioning your achievements, feeling like a fraud despite all evidence to the contrary?
In this episode, I am joined by Clinical Psychologist, Dr Gurpreet Kaur, and we address how imposter syndrome manifests as feelings of fraudulence and inadequacy despite evident success and achievements. Learn about the cultural and intergenerational roots of these feelings and how high functioning anxiety and perfectionism often intertwine with imposter syndrome.
Our discussion emphasizes the heavier burden faced by women and minorities due to systemic barriers and competitive environments, shedding light on how organizational structures can perpetuate feelings of inadequacy. We’ll also discuss practical strategies and therapeutic techniques, including EMDR, to help manage and challenge these feelings. Dr Kaur and I also reflect on our own imposter syndrome journeys.
Whether you occasionally experience self-doubt or it significantly impacts your mental health, our discussion aims to offer understanding, validation, and actionable steps toward reclaiming your confidence and self-worth. Stay tuned as we dissect the layers of imposter syndrome and provide you with tools to navigate and counter this pervasive issue.
Highlights:
(25:44) Intergenerational Patterns in Imposter Syndrome
(31:06) High Functioning Anxiety and Imposter Syndrome
(35:52) Exploring Inner Critics and Compassion
