Using Experimentation to Embrace Your Strengths

The Impostor Syndrome Files

In this episode of the Impostor Syndrome Files, we talk about breaking free from adopting others’ personas and embracing our own. Many of us have found ourselves impersonating those around us, either because we lacked the confidence to be our true selves, or we were told, implicitly or explicitly, that we had to behave in certain ways to fit into the culture around us. My guest this week, Danielle Droitsch, an executive coach and former non-profit leader, shares how she went from mimicking her mentor’s style to integrating her own strengths and embracing her own style. We also talk about using the approach of experimentation to test out new behaviors, including speaking up and sharing your ideas.
