Imposter Syndrome sounds way scarier than it is—trust us—but that's why it is SO important to talk about it! You aren't alone in this struggle.

Host Lauren Lapid and guest Katrina Waelchli get vulnerable, breaking down how their imposter syndrome evolved from college into their lives now as full-time rookies in the workplace. But what is imposter syndrome? In short: Despite your successes and qualifications, you feel like a “fraud” or undeserving of your success and achievements. Lauren and Katrina give real-life stories of when they've felt imposter syndrome and the steps they take to overcome it.
