Getting into college is a remarkable accomplishment. Staying there can be the hard part. Nearly 1/3 of students drop out at the end of their freshman year. How can we make sure we don’t become a part of that statistic? In this workshop, we will discuss the pitfalls some students fall into and how to avoid them. We will also work on strategies to help us refocus and be prepared so we can crush the sophomore slump!

Workshop 3
Friday, April 8, 20222:35 pm - 3:25 pm
“Challenging the Imposter Syndrome”
Facilitator: Lilyan Prado-Carrillo
The imposter syndrome is real. We’ve all heard the little voice inside our head, and we weren’t quite sure what it was or whose voice it was. Guess what?? It’s our own!! We’ve been conditioned so well; we’ve learned to negative self-talk and allow our thoughts to be distorted. So, let’s call it what it is and challenge the voice from within. The imposter syndrome tells you “You aren’t good enough, you aren’t smart enough, you aren’t worthy enough to set the goals you set for yourself, to work towards the life you want, or to enjoy the good that comes to you without guilt.” By naming this voice, we take its power, and we learn to challenge what it says by speaking truth to power over ourselves! Come learn how to not think like an imposter! We deserve what we work for.
