Who's an impostor? - You're an impostor, I'm an impostor...everybody is an impostor... sometimes. Insights with Muna Wagner
Description
So, have you ever looked around at your colleagues and ask yourself: "why do they all seem to be so much smarter than me?" or "so much better qualified than me" or "so much more confident than me"?
If you have and that has left you feeling like an impostor then, all we can say is "welcome into the club" 😉 - Because, yes, both Daniel and I have felt like impostor several times and even with all the tools we have at hand today, I still do very much feel like an impostor every now and again.
In this episode, we have a very special guest to talk about impostor syndrome. Someone who cares for and about words, because how you say things also has an impact on what comes across. Muna Wagner is a communicator, an educator and an enthusiast for change.
Here's what you'll find in today's episode:
- What is impostor syndrome and how many people does it affect
- How Mrs Vader (yes, Mrs Darth Vader - grin!) can help you get rid of your impostor
- How to find out what kind of impostor you are
- What you can do to overcome impostor
- How Muna, Daniel and Eva deal with their own impostors
Oh, and we should not forget the word of the day: this time it's "discernment". You can guess who picked that - yes, it was Muna, and it's an excellent word to remember. If you didn't know it already, it could come in handy 😉
