Y'all, I'm dealing with some serious imposter syndrome. After 20+ years in mortgage lending, I recently transitioned to another sector in the real estate industry. My anxiety is through the roof, and I'm afraid that I will sabotage myself.

How do y'all deal with imposter syndrome? I was a "go to" person for years. Starting over is so hard.

same....20+ years of experience yet imposter syndrome creeps up here and there regardless of career pivot. i would recommend coaching others or taking courses you are interested in. You will realize how quickly you can grasp things compared to others...

What is the best way to begin a transition from a help desk job to an actual career path in IT? I’m getting close to being at my current job for a year, however I have a lot of experience in the tech field, which is what landed me this job without any actual IT background. I definitely feel over qualified and under paid in the position I am in now, and looking for the next step towards an IT career. Any advice would not fall on deaf ears. TIA

Hey everyone! I am currently working as a BA 3 on market expansion and I want to pivot to financial services. I’d love to do strategy, internal consulting, or BA. Downside is that I don’t have a business degree, I studied healthcare admin. Is that a big deal, especially considering my experience?

Would love any advice on how to break into a new industry!
