Last week, we talked about what imposter syndrome is and how it can show up in your professional life. Today, I'm going to talk about the five types of imposter syndrome and how to recognize their unique symptoms.
The five imposter syndrome archetypes I'm going to be discussing today are:
- The Perfectionist
- The Superwoman
- The Natural Genius
- The Soloist
- The Expert
You don't always experience just one of these—many times, I've found myself struggling with symptoms from all five—but there is often one overarching type that we struggle with depending on our skills and our backgrounds, and knowing which it is can help us identify it, combat it, and ultimately defeat it.
