Das Hochstapler-Syndrom und seine Herausforderungen

Ich kann nichts. Ich bin nichts wert. Wenn ich etwas schaffe, ist es nur Glück. Wann fliege ich auf? Wann merken die anderen, dass ich ein Hochstapler bin? Wie kann es sein, dass viele von uns trotz nachweisbarer Erfolge im Leben ständig befürchten, irgendwann aufzufliegen? Was das mit unserer Kindheit und struktureller Ungerechtigkeit zu tun hat, erfahrt ihr hier. Atze und Leon erklären in dieser Folge das Hochstapler-Syndrom, das eigentlich gar kein Syndrom ist.

Fühlt euch gut betreut
