About this listen

You work hard, get promoted, receive praise—but there’s still a part of you that feels like it’s all temporary, that maybe it happened by chance. In this episode, Melody reveals how imposter syndrome goes beyond simple self-doubt. It's about how we process positive experiences, often attributing success to luck while internalizing every small misstep as proof of inadequacy. She shares four actionable steps to help you shift your thinking

What You’ll Discover:

  • Why your successes often feel fleeting or undeserved—and what you can do to make them truly stick
  • How imposter syndrome tricks you into downplaying achievements and amplifying self-doubt
  • How to rewire your brain to see success as a reflection of your skills rather than pure luck
  • The neuroscience behind why praise feels uncomfortable for high achievers and how to overcome it.
  • Four proven techniques to reframe how you see your achievements and start owning your success.
