Black Girl Blueprint
Black Girl Blueprint was founded on the belief that Black girls have long been the ones to set the trends and transform the culture in a way that only we can. To put it simply: our podcast is devoted to showcasing raw, unfiltered, and unapologetic Gen Z Black girl perspectives. Our bi-weekly episodes will center the voices and celebrate the accomplishments of young Black women who have made their own impact on and within the culture. | Follow us on Instagram: @blackgirlblueprint | Lauren: @laurenaritchie @ecojusticeproject | Makeen: @makeenz @blkgirlculture | Email us at blackgirlblueprint@gmail.com

You're That Girl: Saying No To Impostor Syndrome
•
Season 4

Episode 6
Season 4, Episode 6: As we prepare to enter the workforce and reflect on our high school and college years, we're thinking a lot this week about impostor syndrome and those creeping feelings of self-doubt which have held us back from recognizing our merit and entering new spaces and opportunities. In this episode, we debunk impostor syndrome by tracing it back to its root causes: the lack of representation and systemic barriers in spaces we've occupied, comparison and competitive environments, and reconciling the pressure to associate our value with our productivity and arbitrary markers of success.
