“I don’t belong here.”
“Everyone else knows what to do.”
“When will people figure out I’m an imposter?”

This is the third episode in our shame series, and it helps answer one of the questions we get asked most.
“Am I the only one who feels like an imposter at college?”
Well, we brought out a real heavy hitter when we interviewed Dr. Jill Stoddard, veteran psychologist, podcaster and author of Imposter No More. I mean, did we nail it or what? Tune in if you:

Have ever wondered “Do I belong here?”
Work hard to make sure people don’t find out you’re an “imposter” on campus
Want to know what kind of imposter you are (pssst, Sarah is a Super-Human Imposter)
Are interested in hearing ways to beat this mindset and live a “full-sized” life

Make sure to take Jill's quiz to get started on your "beat imposterism" journey!
