This episode is a chaotic little deep dive into imposter syndrome; from childhood “gifted kid” trauma to career spirals, comparison, and the constant fear that you’ve tricked everyone. If your brain loves convincing you you’re a fraud, you’re in the right place.

| 0:13.2 | Okay, guys, welcome, welcome, welcome, welcome. |
| 0:16.3 | To this week's episode, I don't think. |
| 0:17.7 | I really am at my width's end right now with, yeah, I don't know if |
