SWING AWAY : CONQUERING IMPOSTOR SYNDROME
By: Billy Boatright a.k.a. fuzzy_l0gic

It is estimated that nearly 70% of people will experience signs or symptoms of Impostor Syndrome.” Too many people get stuck in a self-doubt loop. This is when feelings of being an impostor creep in. Billy Boatright is part of the nearly 30% that have not. Billy will share with you how an early failure and a “pep talk” from an all-time great has allowed him to avoid persistent feelings of self-doubt. Billy will share ways that can help us all avoid the self-sabotage of Impostor Syndrome.

Billy Boatright BIO

He was a bartender on the Las Vegas Strip for the better part of a decade. He won numerous awards from all over the world as a Top-ranked Flair Bartender. After a crippling illness, that led to hundreds of surgeries, and cut that promising career short, Billy began looking for his next adventure. He found Social Engineering.
