Imposter Syndrome for a First Generation Graduate: Diogo
Update: 2021-08-20
Description
Today we are joined by Diogo, a recent Political Science graduate from the Glendon Campus at York University, who seeks a mental reset in his family’s hometown in Brazil after a challenging few years doing his undergrad experiencing imposter syndrome. Imposter syndrome is routed in self-doubt where a person believes they are undeserving or have difficulty accepting their accomplishments. In Diogo’s case, it was fuelled by internalized dialogue perpetuated in society that POC and immigrants do not “fit in” to mainstream academic settings.
