Great TED Talks have been made about Imposter Syndrome. Some of the world\u2019s most successful, high-performing people admit they\u2019re still impacted by it. There are so many great and varying resources on how to overcome it. But can go a layer deeper?  

\n

What if Imposter Syndrome is a simpler phenomenon that we thought? What if it is useful, not as a sign of where we need to push harder, but where we\u2019ve actually gone away from a place of living and achieving more naturally?  What if it\u2019s like a time-out in basketball \u2014 a sign to get us regrouping so we can get back to playing our way?  In this short episode of With Joe Wehbe, we try to dig a little deeper into Imposter Syndrome, cross-referencing very learned and achieved people\u2019s wisdom with our own personal, everyday experiences.   

\n

We reflect on the times where Imposter Syndrome has shown up, and where it hasn\u2019t, and reflect on what that might mean for us. Hopefully this triggers your own thoughts and helps you explore ways of more permanently relieving this feeling, or dealing with it more effectively.
