In this episode Dr. Reid and Jessica discuss a very common psychological condition called imposter syndrome. Individuals with imposter syndrome have an internalized fear of being exposed as fraud despite evidence to the contrary. Many professionals, especially high achievers, attribute their success to luck or circumstance rather than their own abilities. It makes people feel like they are not qualified or competent enough in their roles, overlooking their accomplishments and believing they have deceived others. People in this category constantly compare themselves to others and downplay their achievements. Perfectionism, self-doubt, and chronic stress can be a result of imposter syndrome. Professionals must recognize and understand this phenomenon in order to develop strategies that promote self-confidence and combat impostor thoughts.
