  • You earned your seat at the table - Overcoming the imposter syndrome as a minority

    You earned your seat at the table - Overcoming the imposter syndrome as a minority
    Jun 10 2024
    To be a part of this conversation and share your story, please shoot me an email: psambridhi@gmail.com. I was in Washington D.C. for a work conference in media relations. I felt several things while I was at the conference full of professionals that came from years and years of experience working in the media, television, the government administrations, and I felt like I didn’t belong there. I haven’t felt the imposter syndrome in a while now so when I was a part of a less diverse world; I found myself in the same spot where I was a couple of years ago. I’m a south Asian immigrant whose first language isn’t English, doesn’t have a journalism background, yet works in the field I am in now. I really had to take a moment to remind myself why I deserved to be there. Why I was a part of this world. Why I deserved that seat at the table among all the others. So hear me out as I share this personal experience as I am aware it’s not so much personal — rather universal. In the ways, a lot of us, that come from minority groups feel this way. As Michelle Obama famously quoted, “You’re important in your own right. People need to value you because of who you are, because of your story. Because of your challenges. That’s what makes you unique.”
