Rethinking Imposter Syndrome: How to knock self-doubt out of your way w/

When I was little, I always told myself “Just wait til you’re a grown-up. You won’t be afraid or insecure anymore!”

Hah! What a riot!

When I was 26, I got promoted to Director of Recruiting … and I really thought that day had come. I grinned at myself and thought “I did it! No more fear!”

Two days later, I walked into an executive meeting … and felt like throwing up. Who did I think I was … saying yes to a Director role?!

There’s a name for this crushing, nauseating feeling (and self-defeating behaviors it brings on): IMPOSTER SYNDROME. Every single one of us gets hits by it at different times in our life. How we handle it makes all the difference.
