  • Turning Imposter Syndrome into Curiosity in Deep Tech

    Turning Imposter Syndrome into Curiosity in Deep Tech
    Mar 27 2025
    When you're working at the edge of what's possible, of course you won't have all the answers. But that's not a flaw — that's the frontier. In deep tech, it’s easy to feel like you don’t know enough — like everyone else has it figured out. This week, I’m sharing a quick mindset shift that’s helped me personally: reframing imposter syndrome as a cue to drop out of ego and into curiosity. Instead of spinning in “I’m not qualified,” I ask, What’s here to learn? What am I being invited to explore? Curiosity softens the edges. It moves us from needing to prove something to genuinely discovering something — which is exactly what deep tech is about. For anyone building in high-stakes, high-uncertainty spaces — this one’s for you.
