    Steph Curry struggles with impostor syndrome

    The 37-year-old basketball player is a four-time NBA champion, a two-time NBA Most Valuable Player (MVP), an NBA Finals MVP, and a two-time NBA All-Star Game MVP but insisted that he is still "human like everybody" so sometimes has moments of self-doubt


    He told CNBC: "I'm human like everybody.

    "You have doubts about yourself, or you have impostor syndrome at times."

    Asked if he has impostor syndrome, he added: "At times, yeah."

    However, Steph - who is married to TV chef Ayesha Curry and has Riley 12, Ryan, nine, Canon, six, and 12-mont-old Caius with her - explained that his idea of "impostor syndrome" is more of a worry that he is doing enough for his loved ones, and if he is maximising his full potential.

    He said: "It's an idea of, 'Are you doing everything you can to take care of people that are relying on you?'

    "Are you fulfilling your full potential in all different areas that I've set out to do?"

    Ayesha previously revealed that she has the same struggles when it comes to her own career, which has seen her launch 'Ayesha's Home Kitchen' on FoodNetwork, but has also worked as an actress and recently starred alongside Lindsay Lohan in 'Irish Wish'.

    She told People: "I have terrible imposter syndrome, and [Steph] is always there to encourage me, remind me, uplift me, me, and be like, 'Hey, what do you need today?' So from that perspective, he's always there and kind of my sounding board.

    At the time , Steph was promoting her skincare venture and noted that it all took inspiration from "beautiful ingredients" found in her family's native Jamaica.

    She said: "I felt like what you put in your body you can put on your body, and there has to be some sort of efficacy from all of these beautiful ingredients that come from where my family's from in Jamaica, and so we started to do a deep dive and quickly realized there are a lot of ingredients that aren't mass market right now that are really effective for the skin."
