Do you sometimes feel like a fraud even though you know you have the necessary accomplishments, education, experience and acumen to be doing what you’re doing?
Do you feel underserving of the wins and successes you’ve gained?

Imposter Syndrome can be defined as a psychological pattern in which a person doubts their accomplishments and suffers a persistent internalized fear of being exposed as a “fraud”.
Many people feel this way at some time or other in their lives. There are certainly plenty of successful people at the height of their careers that feel this way now. Just where does this come from and why does it occur?
Feeling like an imposter means that you are remembering a past version yourself that didn’t have the necessary skills to embody who you are today. You are essentially “stuck” in the past. In order to break free from the past you need to become present to the you that you are today.
