Presented by Dr Shani Waidergoren
Clinical & Counselling Psychologist | Neuroscience PhD | Speaker
Throughout years working as a psychologist, one truth became clear: our self-worth and self-perception are at the heart of our mental well-being. This isn’t just theory—it’s something Dr Shani encountered both personally and through the journeys of hundreds of clients. Imposter syndrome isn’t just about doubting our abilities; it’s about how we measure our worth and internalize success.
This lecture, combines deep academic knowledge and extensive therapeutic experience to unravel the complexities of imposter syndrome and self-worth.
The talk explores what drives these feelings, how they shape our lives, and—most importantly—how we can work through them with practical, real-life strategies.

Zohar Segal Dansky, Senior Customer Success Manager
Shani, I attended your talk for a small audience and it was super interesting and thought-provoking. You managed to sharpen points that don’t always connect in day-to-day life—ideas we don’t usually pay attention to at work and in life in general. I highly recommend attending your upcoming lectures.
Neta Hornonag Braudo, Clinical Psychologist
A huge thank-you for the lecture for mental health practitioners. It was interesting, rich and varied—both theoretical and practical—and it really helped to conceptualise things and think about directions for treating people who come with issues around self-worth
