367: Courage Leads to Confidence: Breaking through Imposter Syndrome

Most business owners, even the most successful ones, wrestle with imposter syndrome. It’s not a sign that you’re failing, but it’s proof that you’re growing. In this episode, Melissa Kay and Dr. Sabrina Starling are uncovering the reasons why courage, not confidence, is the real key to shutting down imposter syndrome and leading your business with conviction. You’ll discover how to take action even when self-doubt screams the loudest, how to reframe fear into a force for momentum, and how to build the kind of confidence that sticks—no matter what.
