Episode 3.18: Fake it 'Til you Make it!, with Hani Anis of Anis Collections
Did you know that around 70% of ppl experience imposter syndrome at some point in their lives? And the numbers are even higher for people who experience stereotypes like women and people of color, or other disadvantaged folks! In this episode, Anu and Tanushree interview Hani, our creative lead, about her successful business in fashion. She talks about her journey, design process, and time management. But underneath it all, is a nagging, intrusive imposter syndrome that she must battle everyday. We discuss how she works against it to garner the confidence to pursue the ideas and goals she has for her company. Finally, the three of us talk about our shared experience in making massive career changes in our 20's: using passion at the propellant to stress and fear management, negotiating wit hopes and dreams, and defining the "fake it 'til you make it" mentality.
