Listen "Imposter Syndrome"
Episode Synopsis
Imposter Syndrome is when a person feels inadequate despite their accomplishments. Not unique to the field of cybersecurity or even software development, imposter syndrome can affect any professional as they advance and grow in their area of expertise.Matt and Izar, both seasoned security professionals, openly discuss the dichotomy between their intellectual achievements and the emotional weight of feeling like they don't belong. They touch upon the challenges of presenting at conferences, where the internal dialogue of self-doubt might be at its loudest, yet they've learned to project confidence. The conversation also highlights the importance of understanding one's worth, emphasizing that it doesn't stem from external validation or the opinions of others. The hosts each share personal anecdotes, such as moments when they felt most vulnerable on stage, and how they've learned to navigate these feelings over time. This podcast serves as a candid exploration of the imposter syndrome, offering insights and encouragement to professionals from any field who might feel the same way.FOLLOW OUR SOCIAL MEDIA: ➜Twitter: @SecTablePodcast➜LinkedIn: The Security Table Podcast➜YouTube: The Security Table YouTube Channel Thanks for Listening!
