In part 2 of our impostor syndrome series, we explore why feeling like an impostor isn't a problem, but a normal response when doing something new. Learn how to "go all in" on the feeling instead of fighting it.

Key Points:

  • Impostor syndrome is not a problem to fix—it's a natural part of growth
  • "What you resist will persist"—fighting the feeling only intensifies it
  • Your nervous system naturally perceives new challenges as threats
  • Recognizing your physical response helps you manage these feelings
  • Practical self-care strategies can help before and after high-pressure moments
