About this listen

In this episode of the 9-to-5 Imposter, hosts Andy and James welcome Brandon Bischoff, a seasoned IT professional whose career journey from a help desk in to a senior cybersecurity leader offers a refreshing look at professional evolution. Brandon shares his personal history as a "latchkey kid" of the '90s, exploring how early independence fostered a habit of "consolidating boxes", fitting into various religious, professional, and social personas to find belonging. He introduces a powerful perspective on high-stakes roles like IT, law, and medicine, noting that while professionals are often expected to have all the answers, true mastery lies in knowing how to problem-solve and "fake it" effectively through recognition. Tune in to hear Brandon’s take on the ultimate opportunity to shed the masks, embrace authenticity, and realize that, in the end, everyone is just figuring it out as they go.
