>> Leila Ainge: Welcome to Psychologically speaking with
2
::
00:05
me, Leila Ainge.
3
::
00:07
This is a podcast all about human
4
::
00:10
behaviour, weaving together fascinating
5
::
00:13
research, opinions and real life
6
::
00:15
experiences. I'm going to give you a
7
::
00:17
psychologist's insight into how we behave in the
8
::
00:20
spaces we live and work in, and how they
9
::
00:23
in turn shape up us.
10
::
00:27
I'm a psychologist and coach with an interest
11
::
00:29
in human connection. My current
12
::
00:32
research looks at networking, engagement
13
::
00:35
styles, and the mindsets of entrepreneurs,
14
::
00:38
especially in online spaces.
15
::
00:40
Psychologically speaking, I've got a deep
16
::
00:43
curiosity around the way in which we use our
17
::
00:46
personal and professional resources to get ahead
18
::
00:49
and get things done.
19
::
00:52
This very first series of psychologically
20
::
00:55
speaking dives straight into my research
21
::
00:58
on impostor phenomenon. Why do we
22
::
01:01
feel like an impostor sometimes? What's the
23
::
01:03
experience like for different people? And we'll
24
::
01:06
discover the facts, fiction, and situational
25
::
01:09
nuances of feeling like a fraud. You'll
26
::
01:12
hear from me and special guests on
27
::
01:15
experiences that invite the impostor feeling into
28
::
01:18
our businesses, from social media
29
::
01:20
comparison to fashion, menopause, and
30
::
01:23
psychological safety I want to change
31
::
01:26
the way you think about impostor phenomenon.
32
::
01:29
Perhaps this is the first time you've heard the term,
33
::
01:32
impostor phenomenon as opposed to Impostor
34
::
01:35
syndrome, and there's a really key
35
::
01:37
distinction. I'm on a mission to get us moving
36
::
01:40
away from a term syndrome that suggests there's
37
::
01:43
something wrong with us, and we'll get straight
38
::
01:46
into that. During the first episode,
39
::
01:50
my impostor research went deep on the
40
::
01:53
experiences of entrepreneurs. But this
41
::
01:56
podcast really is for anyone who's ever
42
::
01:59
wanted the ground to swallow them up whole or
43
::
02:02
felt like they've lagged their way into a piece of
44
::
02:05
work. If you want to understand why those
45
::
02:07
experiences are happening and how we can use them to
46
::
02:10
our advantage in our work, then this podcast is
47
::
02:13
definitely for you.
48
::
02:16
I can't wait to share my research with you,
49
::
02:19
especially the ways in which people take impostor and
50
::
02:22
run with it, and also some of the really
51
::
02:24
surprising positives of the impostor experience.
52
::
02:28
Perhaps the talent of getting ahead and getting things
53
::
02:31
done we so often admire in people have more
54
::
02:34
to do with impostor than we think.
55
::
02:37

56
::
02:39
then the first thing to do is subscribe to this
57
::
