#697: Stop Trying to Fix Impostor Syndrome (Try This Instead)

Author: Trish Blackwell March 31, 2026 Duration: 21:16

What if the goal isn't to eliminate impostor syndrome…

but to become so confident that it doesn't control you anymore?

 

Most people don't tell you this:

The people doing the biggest things in the world…

the people stepping into leadership…

the people trying new things…

they all feel like impostors sometimes.

The difference isn't that confident people don't feel it.

The difference is that they don't obey it.

Today we're going to talk about:

• Why impostor syndrome never actually goes away

• Why that's good news

• And how to build the kind of confidence where you keep moving forward anyway.
