Episode Synopsis

Is the harshest critic you'll ever face actually living rent-free in your head? In this eye-opening episode, we dive deep into the psychology of that nagging inner voice that's secretly sabotaging your success as a founder. Non-violent communication expert Scott Grace (who once opened for Robin Williams!) reveals how 70% of successful professionals secretly believe they're frauds despite evidence of their competence—and why this psychological pattern affects founders most of all.Discover practical strategies to transform your relationship with your inner critic, from "interviewing" that negative voice to building a success consciousness through small wins. You'll learn why shame thrives in darkness, how to prevent your inner critic from poisoning your team culture, and why even the most confident-looking founders aren't immune to self-doubt. This isn't just feel-good advice—it's the neuroscience-backed mental skillset that helps the best founders persist when others quit.Keywords: impostor syndrome, inner critic, founder mindset, shame, entrepreneurial psychology, self-doubt, leadership psychology, Scott Grace, resilience, mental health
