#49: UpSkill — A Conversation on Imposter Syndrome (4 of 5)

In this episode we bring up three key things that can help you to reduce your imposter syndrome: Mentoring others, career clarity, running your own race.

Mentoring others helps to reinforce your own knowledge and demonstrate to yourself that you have expertise and value.  Mentoring does not need to be done in a formal role, where you have a job title or expectations to lead others. You can mentor no matter the environment or your position. Cadeem shares his experiences mentoring others as a freelancer and a teaching assistant.

Sometimes when we feel like we are not successful, it is because we are still trying to figure out a career that suits us. We can spend years bouncing around from one job, or one industry to another. Each move can kill our confidence. Once we pinpoint what we want to be doing, we have a more straightforward pathway to success. 

Lastly, run your own race. Don't compare yourself to others. Comparison is the thief of joy. Work on yourself consistently.

At UpSkill, we are building a community of UpSkillers, learning and growing together.
