In this thought-provoking episode of The Schmidt List, host Kurt Schmidt engages in a compelling conversation with Teresa Sande, CEO of Mirror Mirror Strategies, to unpack the complexities of imposter syndrome and the limitations of personality assessments.

Together, they explore how these tools can inadvertently "box" individuals into rigid categories, ignoring the fluid and unpredictable nature of human behavior. Teresa introduces her robust AIM framework—Awareness, Interruption, and Momentum—a practical approach to recognizing and overcoming imposter syndrome.

Drawing on the connection between thoughts, actions, and outcomes, the discussion touches on the Dunning-Kruger effect and how inflated self-perceptions can distort reality. Throughout the episode, Teresa emphasizes the importance of self-awareness, self-care, and cultivating strong, supportive relationships between employees and leaders to foster healthier, more inclusive work environments.

Teresa also shares her journey from corporate America to entrepreneurship, detailing the inspiration behind founding Mirror Mirror Strategies. Her book, Find Your Fierce, features 40 actionable exercises designed to help high achievers identify and combat imposter syndrome, paving the way for authentic leadership and personal growth.

Listeners will gain valuable insights into overcoming self-doubt, fostering workplace resilience, and unlocking their full potential. Teresa offers actionable strategies for managing imposter syndrome, empowering individuals to take charge of their narratives and embrace a more confident version of themselves.
