summary
Claims that nearly 95% communication issue drives impostor feelings and lists concrete tactics: recording difficult interview calls to replay, using MVP abstracts to get accepted before writing talks, running lunch-and-learn rehearsals and staged run‑throughs, and keeping a folder of screenshots of praise to counter negative self-talk. Notes concrete triggers — moving countries, long probation, being on the bench — and ties anxiety, perfectionism and overwork to procrastination, isolation and missed opportunities.
