Episode 85: Imposter Syndrome

This week on The Living Experiment, we're talking about Imposter Syndrome — that disconcerting sense you may not be entirely worthy or qualified to be doing whatever it is you are doing, and that accompanying sense of dread that it's just a matter of time before everybody else figures that out. Imposter syndrome is a well-recognized phenomenon that affects almost all of us at one time or another, and it can be a significant source of chronic stress. So here, we talk about our own personal experiences with imposter syndrome. We also share what we've learned through our professional explorations of it, and some expert strategies for not letting it get the best of you. From investigating your negative self-talk to overcoming your unconscious upper limits, we suggest ways of identifying and navigating through imposter syndrome. And of course, we offer you some experiments to help you evaluate the impact it may be having in your world. Get full show notes and resources at http://livingexperiment.com/imposter-syndrome/
