Mental Health Meetup - Impostor syndrome

Unmasking Impostor Syndrome: Understanding and Reconnecting with Your True Worth

Meeting details
With hopefully summer weather, the location of the meetup will be in a park (https://maps.app.goo.gl/SDZL1zYXb6GPBBzWA?g_st=com.google.maps.preview.copy) closeby Utrecht centraal. I will bring the seating blankets and oatscake. Please have some water or hydrating beverage with you.

Have you ever doubted your accomplishments or felt like you’re just “winging it”—even when others see you as capable or successful?

On this occasion we’ll explore the experience of impostor syndrome, a common but often silent struggle that can leave us feeling like frauds in our own lives (professional as well as personal).

We’ll look at the underlying beliefs, patterns, and emotional roots of impostor syndrome—especially in relation to perfectionism, belonging, and self-worth. Through introspective questions, reflective sharing, and open discussion, we’ll create space to identify where this inner critic may be showing up in your life.

Together, we’ll also focus on ways to reconnect with your inner confidence, values, and authentic voice, moving toward a more compassionate view of yourself and your path.

This is a supportive space where sharing is welcome, but never required.

🗓 When: Thursday, 31.07.2025 | 19:30 – 21:30

General purpose of the Meetup:
Without a doubt, our mental health directly impacts our lives - from our work performance to our relationships with loved ones and our sense of well-being. So let’s meet up and have the vulnerable conversations. Let’s normalise sharing how we actually feel and what we’re going through, in order to make room for better experiences. Remember, each of us holds a unique story, and every voice is invaluable!

What to expect at this event:

• A warm atmosphere and a safe environment to discuss about issues
• People sharing personal stories of struggles related to mental health
• To make new connections and friends

Notes:

• You are encouraged to share your story, but not obliged to do so
• Bring a journal or your favourite device to take notes/write on.

Looking forward to seeing you,
Irina
