When did you first experience imposter syndrome? So many people resonate with feeling like frauds who sweet-talked their way into their positions and could be found out, socially ostracized, and fired at any moment. 

Imposter syndrome or impostorism is often seen as a women’s issue, and I am always quick to stress this isn’t the case—it’s a human issue. A recent report provides some new numbers that raise a different question: is impostorism a men’s issue? In this episode, I break down what these findings really reveal.

It’s time to refocus the imposter syndrome conversation:

  • Why this is so often considered a women’s issue;
  • What the research says about who really experiences impostorism;
  • Which traits actually lead to feelings of ineptitude.
