Synopsis

Did you know that 70% of people have experienced imposter syndrome at some point in their lives? Unfortunately, despite its prevalence, imposter syndrome is not well understood, and many people live their lives without realizing that they are victims of this all-too-common condition.In You Are Not an Imposter, Coline Monsarrat offers a powerful and personal exploration of this all-too-common condition. Through her raw and honest storytelling, Monsarrat shares her own journey of overcoming imposter syndrome, a condition that almost took her life in 2020.Part memoir and part guide, Monsarrat's book reveals how imposter syndrome can infiltrate all areas of our lives, from our careers to our health, without us even realizing it. She delves into the science behind the condition, discussing how it can bring self-doubt, perfectionism, low self-esteem and confidence, and people-pleasing, to name a few, and how it can ultimately hold us back from achieving our full potential.Using her own experience as a starting point, Monsarrat provides practical strategies for change, making this a must-read for anyone seeking to understand the impact of beliefs on behaviors and to reclaim control of their lives. You Are Not an Imposter is a transformative guide for anyone looking to unlock their full potential and live life on their own terms.From the author:"When I discovered my health condition had led me to develop imposter syndrome, it was a wake-up call. I realized I was doing myself a disservice by not acknowledging my own struggles and risking my life in the process. Feeling like a fraud in my own disease took a toll on my physical and mental health, but with newfound understanding, I turned my life around. I made it my mission to overcome imposter syndrome for myself and others facing similar challenges."

It is funny, I am a registered nurse and have post-graduate qualifications as well, but I have never felt like I am good enough. Even when I walked on the stage......more

Summarizing my review in one sentence: I felt so seen. Sometimes I just sat there wondering how the author was able to capture exactly what’s going on in my head. Other times she said all the right things I needed to hear without being annoyingly motivating. And other than some of my fellow reviewer......more
