Imposter syndrome affects people at every stage of their career — from students to experienced professionals. In this episode of Class in Session, host Tru Powell is joined by Jenna, a forensics student, and psychology lecturer Josh Morton to explore why imposter syndrome happens and how to overcome it.
Drawing on their own experiences, Jenna reflects on feeling like an outsider during her time working as a travel agent, while Josh shares moments of self-doubt he faced during his PhD. Together, they discuss common triggers for imposter syndrome, including social media comparison, workplace pressure, and the influence of gender and ethnicity.
The conversation also explores how imposter syndrome can manifest differently for men and women, with avoidance behaviours often playing a role. Josh and Jenna share practical strategies for managing these feelings, including practising self-compassion, recognising and internalising achievements, accepting praise, and celebrating small wins.
Class in Session is a series from Arden University that brings together academics, students, and experts to discuss the real challenges shaping education, careers, and personal development.
