Figuring Out How to Fight Imposter Syndrome Before It Hinders Your Success
The term “imposter syndrome” was coined by psychologists Clance and Imes in 1978 to describe the persistent feeling that one’s achievements have come about through some sort of accident, luck, or deception and that at any minute other people might find out you're an “imposter.” People of Color are particularly vulnerable to this phenomenon due to experiences with racial discrimination, racial-gender stereotypes of intellectual inferiority, and underrepresentation in professional spaces. In this episode of Figure Out Your Life podcast, I discuss imposter syndrome and share five tips on how to fight it before it hinders your success.

Figuring Out the Negative Effects of Being a "Strong Black Woman"
zhlédnutí 47Před 3 lety
Many black women in America feel pressured to act like or be seen as “strong,” projecting themselves as self-sacrificing, emotionless, and unbreakable in their daily lives. However, the “strong black woman” identity can actually be harmful to black women.

    @msve3730 Před 3 lety

    I've done research on this topic and I found out that It stems from being unemotional, Non feminine and masculine.... Its true. When you attract a married man your pheromone of " I don't need to be saved or your the low maintenance woman.. Your too independent and your only looking for a release which could mainly be just sex...you are a hard worker and a married man knows that you don't need him financially versus his wife and children. He knows he can have fun with you and you'll enjoy it because all work and no play isn't fun. It's a sad 😥 reality but its the truth. Your like one of the GUYS but only prettier..... I been through this phase plus I work with men all damn day. They will literally walk out the room or get far away from me when the wife calls........ After some years of unwanted company I then started to Meditate and avoid unavailable men , rejecting there half ass compliments and acting clueless to their conversations about shit they can talk about with their own wife...You not about to talk to me all damn day and go home and say nothing to your wife.. "TALK TO YOUR WIFE" . NOT MEEE . Married men will block you from meeting your own damn husband . No Thanx keep it moving

She has not made up with his brother and he sees how she is handling the situation with Issa! Not good. I agree they have outgrown each other, but no reason to be nasty! The season finale is going to come down to choosing Lawrence or Nathan! Gurl, I think Lawrence will be in San Fran with his new job so we will see!!

      Hey Gurl! I was wondering where you were. I missed your comments from the season 2 wine downs. The finale looks like it is going to be good. Issa will be in a good place at the end, with love life options, secure housing, and a developing business. Molly will end the season in tears. Andrew needs to break up with her for his wellbeing. A relationship with Molly does not serve him. And Lawrence is definitely moving to San Francisco and I think he will ask Issa to move with him.

It is easy to buy souvenirs on a journey where we take a number of different flights. Norwegian was allowing 10 kg. While Air Asia where allowing 7 kg. Yes, at Cebu Airport we got charged for extra hand luggage. Norwegian have now changed their hand luggage rules for people that get their lowest cost flights. We already booked to go on Norwegian and so the old rules will apply. To begin our trip we must go on Ryan Air. They don't allow much hand luggage. We have two flights on Norwegian I am glad to tell you. It is just the one Ryan Air flight we must be careful for.

      If you can easily able to get to the airport, then it’s a great way to save. In Boston, there are free shuttles to the airport. Plus if you go in between flights, which you can google, you aren’t likely to wait in a line. Again that’s if your local airport is easily accessible. If not, pay the convenience fee.
