Welcome, family, friends and complete strangers.

The deceased led a full life.

She rubbed shoulders with royalty and socialized with socialites.

She was dead rich and was dead fabulous, and now she's just, well, dead.

But while some will mourn her loss, others will be busy trying to get their grubby little mitts on her glorious assets.

The Inheritance, on Channel 4, Odevious New Game.

Hey, welcome to Radio Headspace. It's Dora, and I'm so grateful that you're here.

Recently, while mentoring a group of new mindfulness teachers, I noticed a theme coming up again and again, imposter syndrome. Many of my students expressed feeling uneasy, like they didn't quite fit

the mold of what a meditation teacher is supposed to look like, or act like. They weren't

calm enough, peaceful enough, or even serious enough to guide others. It reminded me of my own early days teaching

mindfulness. I remember preparing for my first meditation class, anxiously standing in front of the

mirror wondering, do I look mindful enough? Will people even believe I know what I'm talking about?

Beneath those questions was an unspoken fear, that being myself wouldn't

be enough. We all have ideas about who we're supposed to be, often shaped by expectations

from society, our teachers, or even ourselves. When reality doesn't match those expectations,

we might feel like impostors. Mindfulness can help us notice these feelings without believing the stories they tell.

It can gently remind us that our authenticity, not our perfection, is what truly connects us to

others.

One evening, during a mentoring session, a student confessed.

I laughed too much, Dora.
