This session explores imposter syndrome within the veterinary profession, a common experience characterized by persistent self-doubt and the feeling of not belonging despite clear achievement. From veterinary school through advanced clinical practice and leadership, these feelings often accompany growth and new challenges.
Participants will gain a deeper understanding of how imposter syndrome shows up in veterinary medicine, why it is so prevalent in high performing environments, and the impact it can have on confidence, career progression, and wellbeing.
The session will focus on normalizing these experiences across all career stages and equipping attendees with practical strategies to manage self-doubt. Emphasis will be placed on reframing mindset, strengthening professional identity, and building habits that support resilience, growth, and long-term success in the profession.
