Resumen del Editor

Imposter syndrome—the irrational self-doubt we feel despite obvious success—can strike at any time, at work or at home. Such crippling anxiety and worry, common to so many people, can even undermine your ability to lead a confident and authentic life. But when you understand the psychological roots of imposter syndrome, you can equip yourself with the right strategies and mindset to avoid the rabbit hole of fraudulent thinking.

In Overcoming Imposter Syndrome, licensed clinical psychologist Kelly Vincent teaches you how to navigate these complicated feelings and how to guide yourself toward lasting change. Through six compassionate and insightful lessons, Kelly unpacks the various types of imposter syndrome (yes, there’s more than one), then reveals proven strategies for rewiring your brain so you can challenge unhelpful thoughts and approach every task with confidence. Along the way, you’ll explore and practice both long-term strategies, such as regulating your nervous system, and short-term strategies, such as in-the-moment coping methods.

Is that ugly imposter voice in your head getting too loud? Now, with this Audible Original, you can tell it to keep quiet.

Better than what I've read before

This really did enlighten me and give me some tools to get out of this rut I've been in. Knowing why, how, and roots of this negative thought cycle is a great tool. Sure, I started therapy and got tools to organize, etc. Now, those tools are helpful because I can use them correctly. This has also given me questions to help my therapy be more effective.

Be prepared

Requires more than 1 listening, most likely. I learned my types, not too much of the why. You should have a notebook ready.

supportive and helpful

this is a self-respect book that helps you to know more about you and change things that you don't like or want to change. I could listen to this book more often to help me get through some of the things I used to think we're flaws about me.

I liked the exercises. I found them useful

I never knew that there were 5 types of imposter syndrome. Very insightful. I found the exercises very helpful.

Changed my life in one mental exercise

This book is for anyone who has ever doubted themselves. Anyone who is scared to try new things, try this book.
The reframing exercises are top tier. I genuinely can’t wait to share these tips with my Preteen kids, just as a better way to process their experiences and feelings about them.
The performance was elegant and well balanced between serious, and lighthearted tones.

Good read

The book started out really slow but the strategies shared at the last chapter are good and worth pursuing. I wish the content structured a bit differently by sharing the “actionable items” earlier in the book.

Great explanations and exercises

This book has many great points. Explanations are clear, and the exercises are put together very carefully to help anyone at any level.

Great course

This was not only a great course but also a great reminder to be a little more gentle with ourselves.

Great Book

Helpful tool to use to break free or to at least know where to start in the process of breaking free from your imposter syndrome.

We all need these tools!

I’ve read much about imposter syndrome and it’s mentioned at conferences and workshops. This book offers practical and easy to apply strategies for navigating the imposter syndrome when it comes knocking at your door! Must read!
