Ever feel like you're just faking it — even when you're clearly crushing it? In this episode, we unpack imposter syndrome: what it feels like, why it shows up (thanks, hustle culture 🙄), and how we’re learning to fight back. From chaotic inbox drama to real talk on feeling undeserving at work, we’re getting honest, swapping stories, and sharing tips that help us reclaim our confidence. Plus, a little reality TV wisdom and our signature Work Wife takeaways.

Because you don’t need permission to be good at what you do.

Welcome to the podcast you didn’t know you needed — but definitely deserve.
In our very first episode, we’re sharing how we became work wives, why we started this podcast, and what you can expect in this unfiltered space for ambitious women, real-life friendships, and everything in between.

Think: career highs, Slack meltdowns, bestie pep talks, and side-hustle chaos — all with a mic on.

If you’ve ever answered a work email with tears in your eyes and dry shampoo in your hair… this one’s for you.
