Episode Description

In this episode, Brett breaks down the real experience of imposter syndrome and why it shows up in moments when your voice matters most. Instead of treating it like a flaw, he explains how to recognize the internal “break” that stops you from speaking up and how to work with it in a mindful, practical way.

You’ll hear how context, culture, past experiences, and even old protective habits shape the moments when you hesitate to contribute. Brett shares a simple question that can anchor you back into your value, along with a mindful process for noticing the voice of doubt without letting it run the show.

Whether you’re in a meeting, stepping into a new role, navigating power dynamics, or simply trying to trust your own perspective, this episode gives you a clearer sense of what’s yours, what’s not, and how to bring your voice into the room with more confidence and ease.

Perfect for anyone who wants to speak up more naturally, stay grounded under pressure, and show up with presence in high-stakes conversations.
