Imposter syndrome is something particularly women, People of Color, immigrants, and other folks with one or more marginalized identities experience when we navigate spaces where we feel or have been told we don’t belong. Power imbalances and hierarchies exist across the field of public health, which can contribute to feeling like you don’t belong, but the good news is it doesn’t have to stay this way.

 

Hear what imposter syndrome is and isn’t, and how to navigate the world with self-trust and internal belonging, even when there are external challenges or barriers you’re facing. Learn what’s creating your experience of self-doubt and insecurity, and how to build the emotional capacity to shift from a feeling of inadequacy to confidence.
