About this episode
In this episode, we chat with Julie Smith, a senior research physicist in the space vehicles directorate at the Air Force Research Laboratory.
Julie has over 15 years of experience working on satellite communication development as a physicist.
She tells us how when they offered her to speak at a conference, she realized she had Imposter syndrome and decided to talk publicly about it to educate and help people.
We discuss impostor syndrome, how it affects high achievers, and how it can be debilitating. We also talk about how praise can be challenging for people who suffer from it and how supervisors can help them.
We’ll delve deep into how Julie copes with impostor syndrome, such as mentoring, building a cute Wall-E Robot, and generally having a more relaxed approach.
Join us for this engaging and informative conversation with Julie Smith.

“Don’t overanalyze it, realize that you’re not alone.
No one is going to just continuously give you praise, give you more work to do if you’re doing a crappy job, right?
Just accept it and move on.”
