Rethinking Masculinity with Heidi Heron: Overcoming Imposter Syndrome Through Authentic Self-Expression
Description
What if the version of “manhood” you’re chasing was never truly yours? In this episode of Mind Over Masculinity, hosted by Sayan, Heidi Heron unpacks how deeply rooted beliefs shape confidence, identity, and emotional expression.
This conversation is for men who feel like they’re constantly “not enough”—in work, relationships, or within themselves. You’ll walk away with a clearer understanding of where imposter syndrome begins, how fear of rejection quietly controls choices, and why authenticity isn’t weakness—it’s freedom.
