Do you sometimes feel your achievements are not the result of your hard work and skill but are just luck? And do you fear that one day, someone will reveal you as an imposter or fraud? You might have imposter syndrome!

Your belief that you are socially awkward is so strong that you always feel like an imposter and are at risk of being found out.

This will boost your self-confidence and set you on the right path to deal with future challenges.
