Have you ever caught yourself holding back on an opportunity because you feared what others might think? In this episode of The Quiet And Strong Podcast, host David Hall is joined by Carlos Garcia—attorney, Army Reserve JAG officer, and co-founder of True Progress Lab—to explore how imposter syndrome and the fear of judgment can stand in the way of our goals, and more importantly, how to move past them with courage and intentional growth.

You’ll discover practical strategies for building both competence and confidence, the real reason behind those nagging thoughts of not being “enough,” and why embracing discomfort can be your path to personal and professional breakthroughs. Carlos shares powerful lessons from his own story and the work he does helping driven individuals overcome invisible barriers, from learning emotion regulation tools to approaching networking and leadership through an authentic, introverted lens.

If you’re ready to let go of fear, stop missing out on opportunities, and tap into your unique strengths, this episode is for you. Listen in, get inspired, and be strong.
