I've seen the same... while touting themselves as an industry expert on social media. Overselling yourself on your resume, the interview, Twitter, industry conferences, etc., that's what an actual impostor is. I think another common case is simple privilege, connections brought you a little farther in life than skills would suggest.
Don't get me wrong, I'm sure it's an actual phenomenon and it's difficult for the people who are dealing with it. But they're not being helped by the normalization of the idea. For most of us, you should be feeling like you worked hard to get where you are and totally deserve it.
