Imposter syndrome
Manage episode 290032297 series 2911492
Takeaways from today's episode:
- Imposter syndrome deals with the struggle of the Internal struggle (often to prove oneself) vs the external environment, including the lack of representation in different fields.
- In presentations and even in life, remember It’s ok to say ‘I don’t know’.
- Some ways one can work through the imposter syndrome include: acknowledging it is a common feeling, separating these feelings from facts about oneself, sharing these feelings with others and thinking: "what's the worst that can happen."
- Everyone gets rejections in academia, do not take it personally and do not give up trying.
