‘I like who I am’: Mira Kapoor opens up about imposter syndrome and self-doubt

Mira Kapoor, a 30-year-old entrepreneur and mother of two, has launched her own beauty business, Akind Beauty, distancing herself from her marriage to Bollywood actor Shahid Kapoor's wife. In a podcast interview, she discussed her struggles with imposter syndrome, stating, "At this next phase of my life, I like who I am and the things that I stand for.

I'm very well aware of why other people do not like me - that's very clear to me. So, that makes it a little easier." Clinical psychologists Aishwarya Raj and Drisha Dey explained that imposter syndrome often involves self-doubt, restlessness, and negative self-talk, leading to feelings of inadequacy despite accomplishments. They suggest acknowledging achievements, recognizing that perfection is a myth, understanding that luck plays a role in success, and creating an action plan for worst-case scenarios as ways to overcome imposter syndrome.
