In this episode of Our Voices, Our Future, we talk about imposter syndrome, confidence, and the burnout epidemic among women in medicine. Dr. Shanika Esparaz—ophthalmologist, lifestyle medicine specialist, and certified wellbeing coach—joins us to share her journey from clinical practice to founding Envision Your Wellness, where she helps women physicians reclaim balance and confidence using her “Four Corners of Health” framework.

We explore the unique pressures women face in high-achieving medical careers, the red flags of burnout, and how imposter syndrome can quietly undermine even the most accomplished professionals. Dr. Esparaz offers actionable strategies—from daily mindset shifts to powerful coaching tools—for recognizing burnout early and building confidence that lasts.
