​Do you find yourself overworking in an attempt to mitigate feelings of unworthiness?

​Many high achievers experience imposter syndrome which is the notion that some individuals feel as if they ended up in esteemed roles and positions not because of their competencies, but because of some oversight or stroke of luck.

​That being said, in the article “Stop telling women they have imposter syndrome”, the authors write that imposter syndrome puts the blame on individuals, without accounting for the historical and cultural contexts that are foundational to how it manifests in both women of colour and white women. We will be exploring imposter syndrome with an intersectional lens.

​​Your host, Amber Shand, will be breaking down her LIFT framework, where we will:
