This week on Rebel Mindset—formerly The Upshot—we’re exploring what it takes to break free from limiting beliefs with Vania Cao, a program manager at a major Bay Area philanthropy, startup consultant, career coach, and founder of Free the PhD. In this episode, we tackle the mental blocks that keep people stuck—imposter syndrome, analysis paralysis, and the fear of taking action before feeling “ready.” She breaks down why “fake it till you make it” is more than just a catchphrase—it’s a strategic mindset shift that builds confidence and momentum. Plus, she introduces identity flexing, a game-changing approach to embracing new opportunities with clarity and conviction. If you’re ready to stop second-guessing and start moving forward, this episode is for you. Tune in now!
