from The Career Happiness Podcast · host Soma Ghosh
In this episode I talk about imposter syndrome and what it is. This is a reoccurring theme that comes up with many of my clients and it’s something I wanted to talk about because we often hide or feel a lot of shame around. It is a lot of more then we think and it’s ok to acknowledge this so you can move forward.
