Cynde Denson, amazing Mindfulness Teacher, Leadership Facilitator and Coach joins Yo today to talk about the book Ditching Imposter Syndrome by Clare Josa. We have probably all experienced it at some point and Cynde offers a mindfulness perspective and practice to help us in the moment when we’re filled with the belief “what if they figure out I really don’t know”.

Here are the questions we explored:

· What is Imposter Syndrome?

· How do you spot Imposter Syndrome?·

· Is it possible to wave goodbye to Imposter Syndrome?

· What is mindfulness?

· How can mindfulness help address Imposter Syndrome?

· How can we be better leaders using mindfulness and lead with intention?
