Imposter Syndrome

Dr Claire Ashley
About this episode

Join me for the 3rd episode of DYNH as I discuss what Imposter Syndrome is, some of the myths around Imposter syndrome, how we experience Imposter Syndrome as medics, and what you can do to tackle it both at work and as an individual.  

My challenge to you is to take one of the techniques for managing Imposter Syndrome at the end of the podcast, and to implement it this week.  Please let me know how you get on if you chose to do so.  There is an option for sending voice notes through my Anchor page which I will link here: https://anchor.fm/doyourselfnoharm

Or, please tag me on socials.  I'm mostly found on Instagram @drclaireashley 

My subscription box and membership for medics is now up and running, and you can find out more about it on my website Do Yourself No Harm
