Dealing with Imposter Syndrome

Share the goodness!

Welcome to Episode 27 of the Marketing Distilled Podcast, entitled, Re-Entry.

In this episode, let me reintroduce myself, review a piece of tech I recently bought, and then help you deal with imposter syndrome in your career.

Reintroduction:

Hi, I’m Jonathan Gaby, the master distiller of Marketing Distilled. I have a masters in marketing from the University of Cincinnati, and I am the communications and marketing manager at Haile College of Business at Northern Kentucky University. I am also an adjunct professor of marketing at Kentucky State University. My hobbies include playing music, walking our dog daily, and lately going to the gym.

I’m driven by impacting the world and people for the better, either by sharing a new product or service, or seeing something in themselves they didn’t see and encourage them towards greatness.

Review: The reMarkable Paper Pro

I recently bought a remarkable paper pro and love it. It’s a digital notebook that I can write notes and keep notebooks organized by topic. My top features and benefits include:

A closed system (no social media, other apps, or notifications) mean I can focus on the work at hand and not be distracted. I can devote my entire focus to reading, writing, or thinking about my project

Ease of organization through notebooks, folders, and tag

No more clutter with loose papers and documents strewn about.

I can write in different types of writing utensils and it can be in color.

Dealing with Imposter Syndrome

Imposter Syndrome is not a new phenomenon. It has it’s roots in an older study (perhaps around the 70s) that focused on women in the workplace.

Here are the five ways I’ve learned how to deal with Imposter Syndrome:

Know that Imposter Syndrome is Normal

Create or join a community of other professionals to vent and discuss

Don’t let perfection paralyze you

Re-frame the discussion to adoption of a learning and growth mindset

Record Your Wins

Using these techniques will help you deal with Imposter Syndrome.
