#76: Imposter Syndrome and Climbing Everest
Today I’m sharing my experiences of when Imposter Syndrome rears its ugly head – because it happens to me too. I share the times where it has been at it’s worst for me: when I launched the Business of Healthcare Scholarship, when I meet people who inspire me and sometimes just when I’m walking on my own. But there are many things that I do to keep those voices at bay that I share with you today.
I also share the very exciting news that in March 2021, I am planning on climbing Everest basecamp. It’s a challenge I’ve always wanted to do, and I absolutely love a challenge. And I’ll be doing it to raise money for the next cohort of the Business of Healthcare Scholarship.
“It's something we all live with. It’s something we all struggle with.” Tara Humphrey
