Anuka Pokharel - Product Manager - Imposter Syndrome and making the leap

This week I am joined by Anuka Pokharel (she/her) - Product Manager at HubSpot and I'm SUPER excited about this conversation!

Anuka started her career in Politics and Economics and quickly realised she isn't creating the impact that she wants to.

After landing her first job in tech within the Talent Acquisition space, she soon knew that TA wasn't going to be her forever career and she found a passion for product.

We deep dive into how you need to take a chance on yourself and make your own luck.

She explores how imposter syndrome played a massive role of feeling "incompetent" when she was thinking of transitioning to a tech role.

This episode is for ANYONE (especially women thinking about the tech sector) who thinks you need a technical background to have an impact and work with technical teams - you don't.

You need to:

- Be determined

- Trust yourself

- Dream big

- And take the leap

We explore:

- Talent Acquisition and aligning together with hiring managers

- Imposter syndrome and how to navigate your way to thinking positively

- Why representation matters

- How working within a supportive team can transform your career trajectory

- And SO much more!
