Overview

"Chronic self-doubt, performance anxiety, perfectionism, procrastination, discounting one's own value despite evidence to the contrary and fear of being ""found out,""-these are some of the many symptoms felt by those experiencing imposter syndrome. Yet, most people who grapple with it don't know about it and think there's something inherently wrong with them; and it can hold them back in business or career. Yet, many self-help books can inadvertently lead to an individual with imposter syndrome feel worse about themselves, because they tend to address the individual symptoms of imposter syndrome, instead of the root cause. In this ""workshop in a book,"" readers will understand why tackling the individual symptoms of imposter syndrome on their own, such as perfectionism, self-doubt, or lack of confidence, are short-lived and ineffective by themselves. They will also get to understand the underlying issue that must be addressed instead, without digging into the past or trying to find blame. The book provides a roadmap of practical strategies, with real-life anecdotes, and exercises. The reader is guided to personalize their solutions to tame overthinking, self-judgment and imposter anxiety, while letting go of automatic thinking and out-dated conditioning that no longer serves. Letting Go of Imposter Syndrome is an intensely personal guide to recognizing one's value, uncovering inner self-assuredness and embracing one's true authentic self."

One of the book's greatest strengths lies in its emphasis on addressing the root cause of imposter syndrome rather than merely treating the symptoms. Choo empowers readers to confront their insecurities head-on and embrace their true potential with practical advice and real-world experience rather than abstract theories. This is a phenomenal book. Having personally experienced Imposter Syndrome I was totally unaware of how detrimental it could be to my career. This book is excellent at raising awareness and provides many powerful strategies and tools to help you have a more empowering sense of your own value. If you're struggling with imposter syndrome or overthinking, pick this book up. This book features visual presentations of the conceptualized ideas described in the book. The author seamlessly weaves words of wisdom in a story format. This book also provides scripts to help you pivot your default inner dialogue. The author's compassionate approach feels like a warm hug, guiding me through the tangled web of self-doubt with practical strategies that actually work. Each chapter is like a beacon of light, illuminating the path towards self-acceptance and empowerment. I finally feel equipped to silence the relentless voice of doubt and embrace my worth. If you've ever felt like a fraud, this book is your lifeline to freedom. I have read a few books on Imposter Syndrome, and Letting Go of Imposter Syndrome by Serena Choo is the best I've read. The writer's approach is authentic in that you are not just provided with facts and surface-level solutions to overcome this condition but with tools for deeper understanding. This book provides opportunities for self-reflection and evaluation and offers new perspectives and examples to use in everyday life. A really well written self-help book with the author's attention to detail, expertise, and experience in being able to share her wisdom and articulate perfectly to provide a great self-help book. Clear talking, practical and useful (even for those without imposter syndrome). - Elizabeth J Floyd, London Culture Companion LinkedIn Brand Strategist Some self-help books have too much information packed in, or they use a lot of words without saying anything of real meaning or value to the reader. This book is different. A lot of useful information to include in daily life in order to overcome anxiety and self-doubt. This is a great book if you want to learn how to get out of your head.
