Unmasking Success Discussion Series - Perfectionism
2026-05-15 12:30 - 13:30 | Fariborz Maseeh Hall, Fariborz Maseeh Hall, 1855 SW Broadway, Portland, 97201, United States
Imposter Syndrome, Procrastination, and Perfectionism Discussion Series
Striving for success can come with baggage, including feelings of self-doubt, fear of failure, and worries about inadequacy. These patterns can interfere with your ability to be confident, stay motivated, and acknowledge your accomplishments despite overwhelming evidence that you are driven, knowledgeable, and skilled.
This workshop series is designed to help students deconstruct the patterns and processes that impact academic success and personal well-being. We will discuss the stigma associated with common phenomena like imposter syndrome, procrastination, and perfectionism as well as shift our thinking to recognize the impact of cultural, societal, and institutional factors.
Through engaging dialogues with fellow peers, SASS academic coaches, and SHAC counselors, you will leave with tools to challenge unhelpful patterns, build healthy habits, and identify strategies to highlight your strengths and success.
Location: FMH 101

We will also practice somatic tools that you can use before, during, and after stressful career experiences, so you can feel more grounded and authentic.
