S2E12 with Dr. Josh Mirmelli, PSY.D - Flipping the Script On Imposter Syndrome

Meet Dr. Josh Mirmelli, PSY.D

Dr. Mirmelli is a Licensed Psychologist based in Los Angeles, committed to helping individuals navigate deep emotional challenges such as trauma, discrimination, and self-abandonment through a powerful yet holistic approach.

On today’s episode, we’re diving into a feeling so many of us wrestle with, but rarely talk about out loud—imposter syndrome. That nagging voice in your head that says you don’t belong, that you’ve fooled everyone, and that it’s only a matter of time before you’re “found out.” Whether you’re a student, a creative, a leader, or just trying to keep it all together, that inner doubt can creep in and cloud even your brightest moments.

During our conversation, we’ll unpack where imposter syndrome comes from, why it shows up, and how it impacts our confidence, performance, and mental health. More importantly, we’ll explore what it actually means to feel like an imposter—and how, often, it’s the people doing the most meaningful work who feel it the deepest. Spoiler alert: you’re not alone, and you’re definitely not a fraud.

Dr. Mirmelli shares his own personal journey along with a few practical strategies and mindset shifts to help you take back your power and own your success—without apology. Because the truth is, at the end of the day, you are meant to be exactly where you are!
