Ever feel like you're just winging it and waiting to get found out? Like you're not really qualified, no matter how much you've achieved?
 
You're not alone.
 
In this episode of Mind Matters, we unpack the all-too-familiar feeling of Imposter Syndrome, why it shows up, who it affects, and how we can learn to quiet that inner critic. Expect real talk, lived experience, and a few lightbulb moments along the way.
 
Tune in, take a breath, and remind yourself: you do belong here.

This week on Mind Matters, the gang take on a tough one – Suicide.
 
It’s not an easy convo, but it’s one that needs to be had. Jen, Em, John and Lee share real thoughts, honest chats, and yes… even manage a laugh or two in between the serious stuff.
 
Because talking saves lives – and sometimes, it starts with 8 minutes, a mate, a brew, and a little less awkward.
