Listen Later

Ever feel like you're wearing a mask at work, in relationships, or just... life? Welcome to the wild world of imposter syndrome, folks! In this episode, we're diving headfirst into that pesky feeling that has us all wondering, "How did I end up here, and when will they figure out I don't belong?"


Here's what we're unpacking:

  • The "Oh crap, they're onto me" moment: We've all had it, and it's about time we talk about it!
  • Why your brain is basically a drama queen (thanks, evolution!)
  • The shocking truth about success and self-doubt (spoiler: they're often BFFs)
  • How to build your very own "I'm Actually Awesome" evidence locker
  • The day I almost chickened out of a major opportunity (and why I'm glad I didn't)

  • Plus, we'll explore some mind-bending facts that'll make you go "Whoa!" Did you know that some of the world's most successful people feel like frauds too? It's like a secret club, but with less cool jackets and more anxiety.


    By the end of this episode, you'll have practical tools to quiet that annoying inner critic, boost your confidence, and strut your stuff like the badass you are. Because let's face it, the only thing you're an imposter at is being an imposter!


    So pop in those earbuds and get ready to laugh and learn. Your future confident self will thank you!

    About the host:

    Hi, friend! My name is Pamela Hughes and I’m a former talk show host turned life coach. After 20 years in the news business, I walked away from what people thought I should do and I did what I wanted to do … coach people who are stuck like I was and help them find relief, awareness and control within themselves.


    This was no easy task and I’m not here telling you it was. I had to take full responsibility for where my life was and then decide where I wanted it to go. It was time to stop complaining about my situation and do something about it. I had to stop looking for others to validate me and start having my own back. This required looking inside myself for the answers instead of looking outside myself.


    I told you it wasn’t easy … but I wouldn’t change one thing about my journey because it led me right here to you reading about it, maybe identifying with aspects of it and hopefully being inspired to get UNSTUCK.
