Description

How do you know if you have Imposter Syndrome? It’s vitally important to find out because:  it validates your thoughts and feelings, and  it helps you to identify the right solution. In this episode of Legal Imposters, I explain the classic signs of Imposter Syndrome as identified by Pauline Clance and Suzanne Imes in their 1978 paper on high achieving women. It was here that  they coined the term the ‘imposter phenomenon’. For some of you, these ‘symptoms’ will resonate immediately. But if they don’t, stay tuned! There are other signs, especially for lawyers, which I call the ‘secret’ signs of Imposter Syndrome. We’ll be covering those in the next episode. SUBSCRIBE to Legal Imposters now so that you don’t miss them! Understanding that you have Imposter Syndrome is just the beginning. Fear, anxiety, stress and overwhelm are holding you back so understandably you want to get rid of it.  But there’s a way to make it your strength and use it to your advantage in your career. This is where Imposter Syndrome Coaching for Lawyers comes in. In Imposter Syndrome Coaching, we follow a simple, practical process for progressing your career when you have Imposter Syndrome.
