Workshop: Self-Confidence And The Neuroscience Of Imposter Syndrome
Benefit from practical tools to shift your relationship with self-doubt.
Imposter syndrome is not a flaw in your character. It is your nervous system doing exactly what it was designed to do. When we grow, step up or move into unfamiliar territory, the brain registers the change as a threat. The self-doubt, the fear of being found out, the urge to shrink back, these are survival responses, not signals that you are not capable enough. In this Workshop, Shaun Burke unpacks the neuroscience behind why confidence wobbles under pressure and shares a practical framework for shifting your relationship with these feelings so they stop holding you back.
