Confidence Builders for Women

This was termed as the impostor syndrome by Pauline Clance and Suzanne Imes in a paper titled ‘The Impostor Phenomenon Among High Achieving Women.”

These women somehow feel that they don’t deserve their success and would be ‘found out’ soon. They feel phoney and anxious and are filled by self doubt.
