Notas del episodio
In this episode of Mpowered Living, Ann Sheu sits down with executive coach, leadership expert, and Find Your Fierce author Teresa Sande to unpack one of the most common—but least talked about—challenges facing high achievers: imposter syndrome.
Together, they explore why self-doubt often appears after our greatest accomplishments, how perfectionism and overworking can quietly reinforce it, and what practical steps we can take to challenge the stories we tell ourselves.
In this episode, they discuss:
- Why imposter syndrome often shows up after success
- The difference between healthy growth discomfort and imposter syndrome
- How perfectionism and external validation keep self-doubt alive
- Teresa's simple but powerful question: "What if that's not true?"
- Practical ways to interrupt negative thought patterns
- How leaders can create environments where people feel safe to grow
- Why confidence is built through awareness, reflection, and consistent practice
Whether you're leading a team, growing your career, or simply trying to quiet your inner critic, this episode offers practical tools to help you build greater self-trust.
