Can a secure attachment bond protect children against Imposter Syndrome? A conversation with Dr. Lisa Orbé-Austin

What if small shifts in the way you parent could help prevent Imposter Syndrome in your child before it even starts? Dr. Lisa Orbé-Austin is joining me this week to help parents learn how to raise a child who trusts in their own abilities, values, and worth.

In this episode we explore:

- What imposter syndrome actually is (and what it isn't!) from a scientific and psychological perspective.

- Why it's common to see self-sabotaging behaviors in people who are experiencing Imposter Syndrome - and what you can do to help you or your kids combat this.

- The impact of rigid versus growth mindset on children as they develop and grow.

- Are certain attachment patterns more prone to Imposter Syndrome?

- The types of conversations you can have with your child, and even with other adults in front of your child, that will lay the groundwork for resilience.

- Why receiving a neurodiversity diagnosis can be empowering for kids and can help combat many associated challenges, Imposter Syndrome being one of them!

- What does it mean to hyper-regulate and how does our environment reinforce this behavior? Is it more common in men or women? With certain siblings? - We're unpacking it all!

If you're someone who's ever doubted their own success, or is noticing perfectionistic tendencies in your child, this episode is packed with eye-opening takeaways you won't want to miss!
