The best solution I've found to imposter syndrome is working with other people. You quickly find out that the imposters aren't actually worried about being discovered. They'll confidently tell you you're wrong and that the grass is purple.
I used to think that I somehow tricked my boss into hiring me because there was so much to know about the job and I knew so little. I worried every day I'd be discovered and fired. Then I met several of those loud, confident impostors, and I reevaluated my job security. Turns out, I'm fine.
