Episode Details

Your self-doubt isn't a defect. It's data.

In this solo episode, Dr. Leili Sadaghiani makes the case that the self-doubt and anxiety high-performing women carry in male-dominated industries isn't imposter syndrome to be fixed. It's a rational signal about the system you're operating in.

She walks through four patterns where executives blame themselves for internal doubt, and where the real issue is almost always structural: role clarity gaps, values-and-culture mismatch, scale-at-all-costs norms, and invisible labor. Then she gives you the five-step practice she uses with her coaching clients to read the signal, map it to the actual gap, and decide how to lead inside the reality you're actually in.

This episode is for directors, senior managers, and VPs who have the resume and the receipts and are still quietly wondering if they're missing something. You're not. You're picking up data your organization isn't honest enough to name yet.
