Imposter Syndrome is a common yet often overlooked challenge in academia, affecting scholars at every stage—from graduate students to senior faculty. Despite your accomplishments, do you often feel like you don't belong or fear being "exposed" as a fraud? In this seminar, we will examine what imposter syndrome is, when and why it manifests, and reflect on the deeper psychological and social factors that contribute to it. We will also provide practical strategies and tools to help you cope with these feelings of self-doubt, overcome perfectionism, and reclaim your confidence.
