Summary

This week we’re discussing a topic we always get requests to cover, imposter syndrome! To help break things down, we brought on Dr. Lisa Orbé-Austin, a licensed psychologist, executive coach, organizational consultant, and speaker. She recently gave a Ted X Talk about The Imposter Syndrome Parado, and is the co-author of Own Your Greatness: Overcome Impostor Syndrome, Beat Self-Doubt, and Succeed in Life and the upcoming book, Your Unstoppable Greatness: Break Free From Imposter Syndrome, Cultivate Your Agency, and Achieve Your Ultimate Career Goals (out October 4)!

We discuss how imposter syndrome became her area of focus, the imposter cycle, and how to deal with imposter syndrome throughout your career. Lisa also discusses why she’s staunchly anti-‘fake it til you make it.’

You can find Dr. Lisa Orbé-Austin on Linkedin at @drorbeaustin on Instagram and learn more about her course, masterclass, and more at dynamictransitionsllp.com.

Hi everyone, welcome to Bad on Paper podcast. I'm Olivia Mentor and I'm Becca Freeman.

0:23.3

And today we are talking all about Imposter Syndrome. This is probably one of the best

0:29.0

most impactful interviews I've ever experienced in my life. And I'm excited about it.

0:34.9

Same, I'm very excited. I feel like this isn't the topic we get so many questions on.

0:39.2

And I'm really excited to have an expert to talk through this. There was so much of

0:42.3

her advice that was so smart but ran counter to my own natural kind of like gut instincts

0:50.6

I guess. And so I'm really excited to share this.

0:54.5

Same, I think people are going to get a lot out of it. But first should we tackle some

highs and lows? Obviously. Tell me about your high.

Okay, I have a real high and a micro high. So my real high is that one of my best friends

1:34.5

So it's so fun. It was so fun. And then my micro high is on Monday. I've painted my toenails

1:41.2

bright red orange. The colors lava from Olive and June which is usually so not me. And

1:50.8

it has me feeling very powerful. I feel like that is the first sign that summer has hit

1:57.7

when you get that orangey red color. That's such a good choice. That's not usually me.

2:02.4

I'm usually like a neutral or pastel person. And so this feels very outside of my like

2:07.9

color wheel. And yeah, I do feel spicy every time I look down I'm like, oh, look at me.
