UX Almusal

By ALXC x CSJ

Almusal (breakfast) is better when shared together

You better get your sinangag ready and join your hosts Alexis Collado and Christian San Jose. Listen in on conversations about UX, product design, and life from two hungry designers cooking their way to make sense of a messy design world.

Conversations over breakfast may include โ€” product design breakdowns, building design organizations, self-improvement as a designer, and stuff you probably should listen in on if you want to level up as a designer.

Impostor Syndrome & the Dunning-Kruger Effect for Product Designers ๐Ÿง

In the third episode of UX Almusal, we share our personal stories dealing with Impostor Syndrome and the Dunning-Kruger Effect ๐Ÿ™ƒ๐Ÿคฏ๐Ÿคก. Alexis talks about his experiences at Stanford and design coaching, while CSJ talks about his early experience as an illustrator and web designer for athletes like Kobe Bryant, and being a workshop facilitator. We also describe the ways to combat both of them, especially in the world of UX and product design โ€” plus why the two arenโ€™t necessarily bad or uncommon. These things are totally normal!
