As a professional woman who suffers from imposter syndrome, this book had an incredible impact on me. The book dug deep into the reasons imposter syndrome happens, and dispelled some myths about the causes of it as well. The author bases her advice on well researched sound evidence. She gives the reader a variety of easily accessible tools to make real change in their thoughts and attitudes. If you purchase the e-book there are direct links to the tools, making it easy for busy people to really use them. I highly recommend it.

The bigger the storm, the brighter the rainbow. Dr. Jennifer H. Hunt’s novel ‘Unlocking Your Authentic Self,’’ is a self-empowering book geared towards professional women that suffer from ‘imposter syndrome.’ Imposter syndrome, aka self-under-appreciation syndrome, is defined as when “people under-value and under-appreciate their skills, talents, and value.” Have you ever sat in a meeting and looked around the table and wondered if people wonder why you are even there? If you answered yes, by definition, you suffer from imposter syndrome.
I liked all 438 pages of the book. I loved the layout and the techniques/exercises that the author provided. You do not need to suffer from imposter syndrome to find value in the mindfulness practice, distraction techniques, empowering poses (loved it- I’m posing now), and learning to speak with integrity. These are exercises that are good for professionals and recent graduates.

My therapist recommended this book because of my issues with self confidence and inferiority complex. This book has given me the tools to set my inner critic and imposter syndrome aside and live a healthy, happy life. My advice, take what you need and leave the rest. You're not likely to use 100% of the tools in this book, but you'll find what works for you and work the process.

It fell in the middle for me. There were some pieces that were really helpful and others not so much. I felt at times she tried to include too much.
