Dismantling imposter syndrome.
In this episode of the Power Of Women Podcast, we are revealing the silent self-doubt that holds so many brilliant women back: imposter syndrome.
Whether it shows up as over-preparing, holding back in meetings, or downplaying success, imposter feelings can quietly sabotage confidence and performance — especially in the workplace.
Together with imposter syndrome expert and author of Conquer Your Imposter, Alison Shamir, we unpack where this internal narrative comes from, how it disproportionately affects women, and — most importantly — what to do about it.
In his episode, we explore:
- The real definition of imposter syndrome (and why it’s not just “self-doubt”)
- Perfectionism, identity sabotage, and internalised narratives
- Why fear is not a great motivator — and why imposter syndrome is not a hidden strength
- Why women are more prone to it — and how to change that
- How to uncover your “origin story” and start healing.
