This week Genie and Celina discuss what the term imposter syndrome means and how they've experienced it in their life. They go over what it felt like to apply to their first jobs, feeling unqualified while having enough qualifications. 

Genie talks about dealing with imposter syndrome in her field of work, Marketing. She didn't attend university or have any formal training in Marketing or Sales. She initially pursued a career in medicine and went into university as a pre-med student. During her years at UCLA she realized she was not on the right path. 

Celina shares her experiences with imposter syndrome in relation to her career as a fitness coach. She opens up not only about expectations in the field concerning degrees and certifications but also expectations concerning body image and superficial measurements.
