Sophia Imposter Syndrome Protocol

Imposter syndrome is the persistent belief that you don't deserve your position or achievements — that you'll be exposed as a fraud. Writing out the specific fear, and then the actual evidence, creates a reality-check that internal rumination cannot. Fully private and offline.
