On this episode, Black Lady Adulting explores the concept of impostor syndrome. She breaks down the development of the concept (2:00), defines it (3:00) and describes various impostor attitudes (4:45). Examining the concept through a racial lens, Joakina explores why minoritized groups may suffer from impostor syndrome more than others (7:05), the potential effects it can have on folks (11:20), and tips to overcome it (14:20). She digresses and gives a nod to Bomani Jones (18:32) and gets back on track by examining the Dunning Kruger Effect (21:19), who most likely suffers from that (23:55) and reminds us to do the work to let go of things that do not serve us (26:10). The episode concludes with a shout out to Black women in the My Girlfriendsss segment (30:28) and a salute to one amazing Black woman in particular.
