BOOK NOW: The 7 Lies of Imposter Syndrome

Join us to explore the 7 lies we're told about Imposter Syndrome – and how they keep capable women stuck.

Step back into your afternoon feeling calmer, clearer, and more confident.

Join Nirelle Bennett, President of Gippsland Women in Business, Imposter Syndrome Specialist and Hypnotherapist, for a relaxed online Lunch & Learn. Together we’ll unpack the 7 lies about imposter syndrome that keep capable women stuck, plus a simple 60-second reset you can use anytime imposter thoughts show up.

  • A short, guided hypnotic grounding meditation to help you press pause on a busy workday

  • Insight into the 7 common “lies” that keep capable women second-guessing themselves

  • A practical 60-second reset you can use in the moment, at work or at home

  • A gentle sense of connection with other women in the GWIB community

What we’ll cover

  • Imposter syndrome vs self-doubt, what’s actually going on

  • The 7 most common myths about imposter syndrome, and why they’re so believable

  • How imposter thinking affects your confidence, decisions, and visibility

  • Simple reframes you can use to respond differently when it shows up

  • A guided grounding meditation, plus the 60-second reset technique

What to expect

About GWIB Lunch and Learn sessions

These monthly sessions are designed to grow with you. Each month, we’ll create space to pause, connect, and explore topics that matter to working women in Gippsland. We welcome your feedback on future topics so we can keep offering sessions that feel meaningful, engaging, and genuinely useful for real life and work.

Make it a monthly habit

This is the second session in a new monthly Lunch & Learn series. Each month, we’ll create space to pause, connect, and explore topics that matter, through stories, practical tips, and shared experiences rather than formal teaching.

If you’ve been craving support, relevant conversations, or a gentler way to take a break during your busy day, this is your invitation to start. Feel free to bring a colleague or friend who’d enjoy a relaxed, meaningful lunch break too.
