Regardless of what path we are walking in our world of work, there are obstacles, challenges and changes that face us on our way. These opponents can lead to the development of internal thoughts, perspectives and feelings that based on their nature can derail us from our destination course. Each of these, on their own, have the ability to stop any young professional from pushing forward but when they all occur together, they become a paralyzing phenomenon. The specific, pervasive phenomenon that this episode speaks on is Imposter Syndrome - a universal experience of feeling like a fraud despite undeniable accomplishments. In this episode, the author shares two experiences that he had with Imposter Syndrome and the remedies that were given to him by some unexpected ‘doctors’. In so doing, he hopes that the medication prescribed to him will help the person who is dealing with and healing from Imposter Syndrome.
