Thanks for posting this Adam.
I think the term imposter is so damaging, especially for jnr dev's & something I realised I shouldn't buy into. I hear the term used more & more and I wish more people would actually just call it what it is... doubt.

Its refreshing to hear this from a senior dev & I agree with Jordan's comment below, this is a natural response to doing something new, unknown, hard etc. The term is unhelpful & causes more anxiety when its not needed.
