> Governance, risk, compliance.

What experience does the person have in that field? For instance, have they worked at an audit practice (doesn't have to be one of the Big Four)?

If after decades in a domain could it be that what they're feeling is something closer to relevance / being on the cutting edge (young vs old) rather than having imposter syndrome? If it is truly the latter, then I don't think they will ever get out of it - if after decades you are still not confident in your skills...
