Part 2 - Is Imposter Syndrome Impacting Your Wellbeing?

When Functioning Starts to Feel Like Faking

You keep it together on the outside.
Deadlines met. Praise received. Calendar full.
But inside, the weight is building—quietly.

Impostor syndrome doesn’t just live in your mind.
It lives in your body. Your habits. Your decisions.
And often, your disconnection from your own needs.

It can sound like:

“I just need to try harder.”
“This isn’t that bad.”
“I should be grateful.”

But behind those words?
Exhaustion. Resentment. Perfectionism.
And the fear that if you slow down, it will all fall apart.

Subtle Signs It’s Affecting You More Than You Think

You might not call it imposter syndrome.
You might just call it “normal.”

But the patterns reveal something deeper:

✅ You stay in relationships that drain you—believing no one else would choose you
✅ You say yes to tasks that bury you, then beat yourself up for not doing more
✅ You work late, wake tired, and still question if you’re doing enough
✅ You hesitate to speak up, fearing your ideas will be dismissed
✅ You feel guilty resting—but exhausted trying to keep up
✅ You’ve forgotten what self-care, joy, or even fun used to feel like

And most of all?
You fear being found out as “less than” what others believe you to be.

The Hidden Cost of Carrying It All

Impostor syndrome doesn’t just impact your confidence.
It reshapes your relationships.
It determines what jobs you apply for—or don’t.
It makes you a magnet for overwork and under-recognition.
It’s often a quiet root of burnout.

And yet, so many people wear it like a second skin.
Functional. Capable. Secretly unraveling.

Take a Moment to Reflect

🌀 Where in your life are you giving more than you’re receiving?
🌀 What have you normalized that might actually be costing you your wellbeing?
🌀 What do you fear might happen if you slowed down—or said no?
