What is that anyway? We hear it said so much, but what does it really mean? Imposter Syndrome is a psychological phenomenon in which an individual doubts their accomplishments or abilities, despite evidence of their competence. It is often associated with feelings of inadequacy and self-doubt, and can cause an individual to remain silent or self-critical in order to prevent being exposed as a fraud.
