In this episode, I talk with the burnout MD for entrepreneurs, Dr. Crystal Agyei, about why defaulting to the label of imposter syndrome can actually hold you back from doing the deeper work of understanding your thoughts and emotions. Crystal shares a powerful reframe for imposter syndrome that she calls the "personality gap" - the space between the version of yourself you desire to be and the one that is currently showing up.

 

Crystal dives into the problematic history of how imposter syndrome was originally conceived, the importance of applying an intersectional lens to this work, and how to start investigating your own "imposter" thoughts with curiosity. She also shares a practical tool you can use to identify and question the thoughts behind your feelings of imposter syndrome in the moment they arise.
