Episode 13: Faking it...Or Figuring It Out? with Ghadir Saad, AMFT, APCC
from The Sync'd Self · host Jesse Quijada
You’re not faking it.It just feels like you are.There are moments where you’re doing everything right—showing up, putting in the work, moving forward—and still questioning if you actually belong.Quietly.In this episode, I sit down with therapist Ghadir Saad to talk about the reality of imposter syndrome—not just as a mindset, but as something shaped by the world we’re living in.The pressure to have it figured out.The comparison that comes with social media.The weight of expectations—especially for those carrying family, cultural, or first-generation experiences.This isn’t about “fixing” self-doubt.It’s about understanding why it shows up…and what it actually means when it does.Because maybe the problem isn’t that you don’t belong.Maybe you’re just in the middle of becoming someone new.
