My guest today Jill Stoddard, PhD. Jill is a psychologist, writer, TEDx speaker, award-winning teacher, peer-reviewed ACT trainer, and co-host of the popular Psychologists Off the Clock podcast. She is the author of three books: The Big Book of ACT Metaphors, Be Mighty, and Imposter No More: Overcome Self-doubt and Imposterism to Cultivate a Successful Career.

- How and why she opens up about her own struggles in the book
- Learning that can come from our fears coming true 
- The history of “Imposter Syndrome” and why it makes sense
