6. Identity Priming, Made Practical
   Identity priming is the finding that briefly activating a self-concept (e.g., "I am someone who values health") before a decision increases the chance of behavior consistent with that identity. Effects are real but modest and context-dependent; they are most reliable when the identity is already part of how you genuinely see yourself.
7. Externalizing the Problem
   Separate the person from the problem by talking about it as if it exists outside them.

8. Say it out loud to someone safe
   Disclose the imposter feeling to a trusted peer or mentor to break its secrecy.

9. Narrative Identity, Made Practical
   Dan McAdams’ narrative identity theory holds that identity itself is a personal myth — an internalized, evolving story that integrates your past, present, and imagined future into a coherent sense of self. The structure and tone of that story (whether it moves toward redemption or contamination, agency or communion) predicts psychological well-being, and the story can be deliberately revised. Evidence is primarily observational but robustly consistent.
10. Plan repair for the harms the behavior caused
    After understanding the chain, make a concrete plan to address the damage it caused.
