Common Questions
Questions People Ask
Understanding imposter syndrome and how this masterclass helps
Is imposter syndrome the same as low self-esteem?
Not quite. Low self-esteem is a general feeling that you’re not good enough. Imposter syndrome is more specific — it’s when you believe you don’t deserve your success, even though there’s evidence you’re capable. You might have high self-esteem in some areas but still experience imposter syndrome at work or in a new role. They can exist together, but they’re different patterns.
Does everyone experience imposter syndrome?
Most people experience it at some point, especially when trying something new or moving into unfamiliar territory. But some people are more prone to it than others. It’s not a sign of weakness or incompetence — it’s actually common among high-achievers and people who take their work seriously.
How long does it take to get over imposter syndrome?
It’s not something you “get over” once and forget about. Instead, you develop skills to recognize it when it shows up and manage it differently. Most people see real shifts in 4-8 weeks of consistent practice. The goal isn’t to never feel doubt — it’s to not let doubt drive your decisions.
Is this masterclass only for people in Limerick?
The resources are available to everyone, regardless of location. While we’re rooted in Limerick’s professional community and understand the local context, the principles and practices work for anyone dealing with imposter syndrome. Whether you’re here or elsewhere, the framework applies.
Can imposter syndrome actually affect your career decisions?
Absolutely. People with imposter syndrome often avoid promotions, don’t speak up in meetings, or stay in roles that feel safe even when they’re ready for more. They might also take on extra work to “prove” themselves. These patterns can seriously limit your career growth. Learning to recognize and work with these patterns helps you make decisions based on your actual qualifications, not your doubts.
What makes this different from other resources about imposter syndrome?
We don’t rely on affirmations or motivational language that feels hollow. Instead, we focus on understanding the actual patterns in your thinking, where they come from, and how to build genuine confidence through practice. It’s practical, honest, and designed around real experiences from people in Limerick and beyond.
