If you’ve ever second-guessed your own success, downplayed your abilities, or had that creeping feeling that you're about to be "found out", this session’s for you.

We’ll take a practical look at the neuroscience and evolutionary wiring behind impostor syndrome (through a bit of brain geekery), and why your brain is awkwardly just trying to protect you from embarrassment, failure, and… lions?

I’ll share a few tried and tested tools that help when your brain isn’t helping. Some from personal experience, others borrowed from thinkers, doers, and celebrated professionals who have been there too.

This talk won't help you get rid of that back seat driver completely, but it will give you a few tools to keep it from taking the wheel.
