Great discussion, very informative

This gave me more of an insight into imposter syndrome, particularly in the discussion of the double implications for ethnic minorities and other cultural factors. Totally agree with the guest speakers' conclusion that working with a growth mindset in a culture of learning and owning up to mistakes as a learning exercise would benefit everyone.
