Imposter Syndrome is something that can affect anyone. I've been struggling with it the last couple years after losing our twins at 24 weeks and almost losing my wife to a deadly disease called HELLP Syndrome which can affect women during pregnancy. Since then I've been dealing with this growing feeling of imposter syndrome. So, I did what anyone would do when experiencing a life crisis. I started a podcast.
On the Imposter Syndrome Podcast, I talk to musicians, comedians, professors, and more about their internal struggles with imposter syndrome. As imposters, we tend to feel like we are the only ones experiencing it which can feel quite alienating. My goal is to surround myself with super talented and intelligent people to shine a light on this issue so that way anyone who is listening can know that they are not struggling with this alone. It can sometimes feel like we are trying to "fake it till you make it". However, the "faking it" process is usually part of the learning process. So, maybe we're not all faking it. Maybe we're just "Learning it till you make it".

Maddie Tarbox feels pissed about imposter syndrome.
In this episode I try to hold myself together while talking to a person who has been like a mentor to me, Maddie Tarbox. We discuss many topics from the deep seeded roots of imposter syndrome, how imposter syndrome applies to teachers, and bicycle face. That's right, bicycle face. The syndrome that doctors from the 1800's would diagnose women with to keep them from riding a bicycle. My only response to that is...men....why?
This episode was one where I felt an absolute ton of imposter syndrome. After experiencing a large amount of trauma I felt that all of my knowledge had disappeared from my head. I found Maddie while scrolling through TikTok and really connected to her material. So, to rebuild my knowledge base I took her Voice Function 101 course and felt a huge amount of relief after completing it. So, of course I had to have her on the podcast to talk all about it.
Did I hold it together enough to not sound like a complete dunce while talking to her? Who knows. I'm sure I'll find at least 1 or 2 things that I'll think about obsessively that I wish I had said differently. In the meantime, enjoy this episode with my guest Maddie Tarbox
