Imposter Syndrome & Perfectionism: Owning Your Growth in Competitive Fields

Send us a text

In this candid and thoughtful conversation, Kim and Carla dive deep into the complex world of imposter syndrome, exploring its many forms—from the perfectionist and soloist to the natural genius. Sharing personal stories from their careers in dog training and behavior, they unpack how self-doubt, high expectations, and the fear of failure can shape everything from daily habits to major career decisions. Along the way, they touch on the Dunning-Kruger effect, perfectionism in work and sports, struggles with deadlines, and learning to ask for help. It’s a vulnerable, insightful, and empowering chat about confidence, growth, and giving yourself permission to not be perfect.
