MooreStories: Still Moore to Tell

Who Do You Think You Are-Imposter Syndrome

Nikki Moore Season 3 Episode 2

Imposter syndrome doesn’t always show up loudly.
Sometimes it whispers.

In this episode of MooreStories, host Nikki Moore explores imposter syndrome—not as a buzzword, but as a lived experience many of us carry, especially as we grow, stretch, and step into visibility.

Nikki unpacks what imposter syndrome really is (and what it isn’t), why it so often affects capable, accomplished people, and how environment, culture, and representation—particularly for Black women—can shape feelings of self-doubt. This conversation offers a grounded reframe: imposter syndrome isn’t a personal flaw, but often a learned response to spaces that have questioned our belonging.

This episode is an invitation to pause, reflect, and release the need to constantly prove yourself.

Because sometimes the most powerful reminder is this:
You belong because you’re here.
