The Upside of Imposter Syndrome

In this episode I take a look at the UP SIDE of Imposter Syndrome in VetMed. Imposter Syndrome is really a state of believing that you’re a fraud and that your accomplishments were more likely accidental than the intentional result of your performance.  I dig deep into the phenomenon, and share why it’s both very common, and very normal, in the veterinary profession.

Topics include:

1. What Imposter Syndrome is
2. Why Imposter Syndrome occurs
3. When Imposter Syndrome started for most of us
4. Why VetMed provides abundant opportunities for Imposter Syndrome to grow 
5. The UPSIDE of Imposter Syndrome that occurs once you understand what’s really happening

I also share my thoughts on Self Confidence, Negative Self Talk & Self Belief, describe how emotions are created, explain the concept of Emotional Normalcy, and describe emotion’s physiologic impact.
