ADHD Crash Course
This is a podcast for those of us who feel we have a lot to learn about ADHD!
My name is Donae Cannon- I'm an occupational therapist, a certified coach, a parent of more than one child with ADHD, and I have ADHD. I've been learning about ADHD for a while now, and I'm still learning new things. Welcome to the Crash Course- let's dive in...
ADHD Crash Course
81. Imposter Syndrome and Neurodivergence
Imposter syndrome can make us feel like our wins are more luck than due to our skills or abilities. Even if we've spent a good deal of effort to get our outcomes, our achievements makes us feel more like a fraud than a success.
With Imposter Syndrome, our wins don't feel like wins at all; our brain tells us that they're just luck, outliers, or flukes.
On today's episode of ADHD Crash Course, we'll discuss Imposter Syndrome and learn:
- 3 reasons why people with ADHD are more likely to experience Imposter Syndrome
- Why over-confidence and capability are often inversely related
- The Dunning Kruger Effect and why people who have more knowledge/ skill/ experience are often the very people who doubt themselves the most
- Why Donae thought she could easily reupholster a couch despite having no previous experience
If you are dealing with imposter syndrome, you are not alone! Listen to today's episode to learn how to manage it.
