301: Why We Get Imposter Syndrome and What to Do About It with Melody Wilding

You’ve most likely heard of “imposter syndrome” and perhaps you’ve experienced it yourself. If so, you’re not alone!

I hear from women we work with that they sometimes suffer from imposter syndrome, especially as they think about putting themselves out there in a bigger way.

You’re going to learn a lot in my conversation with Melody Wilding, who has an impressive background as a best-selling author, a contributor to places like Harvard Business Review, and a LinkedIn Learning instructor.

Melody and I talk about:

  • What imposter syndrome is
  • The various ways it can show up (one of these surprised me)
  • How imposter syndrome has shown up for both of us
  • Specific techniques we can use to lessen it
  • How Melody was selected to be a LinkedIn Learning instructor and her tips for creating engaging video content
