About this listen

Hosts Bonnie and Miranda welcome Dr. Pamela D. Williams for an updated discussion on imposter syndrome, this time specifically on academic writing. The transition from student to independent scholar often leaves writers feeling unqualified, even in the midst of earning credentials. Dr. Williams and your hosts provide some tips for how academic writers can build confidence in their own voices, with a particular look at the anxiety that can mount while trying to follow a strict style guide. Whether you're a new student or seasoned scholar navigating imposter syndrome, this episode offers valuable insights and encouragement to trust your innate expertise and embrace the writing process.
