73 | How to Break Self-Doubt, Take Your Power Back & Lead With Real Confidence featuring Stacy Brookman
If you’ve ever been promoted, praised, or handed a big opportunity… and instantly felt like you were about to be “found out,” this episode is going to speak straight to your soul.
Today I’m joined by Stacey Brookman, founder of Real Life Resilience, corporate veteran, life coach, and a woman who has spent over 35 years helping leaders rewrite the inner narratives that hold them back.
And in this conversation? She dismantles imposter syndrome in the most refreshing, practical, human way.
We talk about the real reasons smart, capable women feel like frauds — even after climbing the ladder, earning the title, or checking every box. Stacey also breaks down the four biggest signs you’re stuck in imposter syndrome (you may not even recognize them)… and how to finally shift your thoughts so you can show up with the confidence your resume already proves you deserve.
If you’ve been people-pleasing, overworking, perfectioning, or doubting yourself into exhaustion… this episode is a deep breath.
In This Episode, We Explore:
✅ Why imposter syndrome follows even the most successful women
✅ The four hidden behaviors that quietly sabotage your confidence
✅ Why your brain lies to you (and how to catch it in real time)
✅ The difference between confidence and “performing confidence”
✅ How to stop people-pleasing without feeling guilty
✅ What leaders can do when they see imposter behavior on their team
✅ A simple daily practice to rewire your thoughts and build steady, resilient self-belief
✅ Why you don’t need to “fix” yourself — just understand your thoughts
