Imposter Syndrome, Perfectionism & The Exit Plan: Why Staying Isn't Safe
Description
You’ve got the job, the title, the degrees… so why do you still feel like you’re faking it?
In this episode of Revenue Without Borders, I sit down with Dr. Nikia Smith—an anesthesiologist, coach, and bold advocate for designing a life that works for you. We unpack the real cost of imposter syndrome, the invisible weight of perfectionism (especially for Black women), and why staying in a “good job” might be the most dangerous move of all.
If you’re stuck between entrepreneurship and your current career, and secretly wondering if you’re just “not ready,” this episode is the mindset reset you didn’t know you needed.
We talk:
- Why imposter syndrome hits hardest when you’re leveling up
- What corporate life really extracts from high-achieving women
- How to collect your “receipts” and reclaim your narrative
- The power of choosing part-time, pivoting—and still thriving
It’s time to stop asking for permission. The border between your current life and your future? It’s in your mind. Let’s move it.
