Imposter syndrome isn't a character flaw — it's a very old brain wiring problem meeting a very new highlight-reel world. Your brain is built to scan for threats and compare you to your environment; social media has turned that comparison dial up to eleven by feeding it a diet of other people's edited best moments.

Join me in this short episode to unpack a few of the reasons that so many people feel the impact of this dynamic.  I hope that some of the high level approaches and insights I provide will help you "defang" your particular variant of Imposter Syndrome.
