| Episode 4: Help! I Have Imposter Syndrome! | 16 Jun 2026 | 00:38:30 | |
Have a question for the experts? Click here to submit it and we may feature it on a future episode! Think imposter syndrome doesn't apply to you? Think again. In this episode of Firing and Wiring, host Jena Mahne talks with Dr. Bethany Ranes and Dr. Norah Kennedy to unpack one of the most misunderstood psychological phenomena in the workplace (and why the people who feel it most acutely are often the highest performers in the room). How do you start to notice imposter syndrome when it doesn't look like the textbook definition? What does it mean to "collect evidence" against a false belief? Why does asking "What am I doing here?" at the wrong moment literally kill your flow? And what does a Pac-Man ghost have to do with any of this?? Whether you're managing a team, finishing a degree, or just trying to take a compliment without deflecting, this episode will help you name the patterns of imposter syndrome so you can start recalibrating.
