The Superman Secret To Authentic Confidence
Welcome back! In today’s episode of TWC Talks, Mike Walker opens up about one of the most universal challenges entrepreneurs and leaders face: imposter syndrome. Mike breaks down what really goes on behind the scenes when you feel like a fraud, even when you’re achieving external success.
He dives deep into the critical truths most people miss, from understanding that self-doubt is part of the path to greatness, to developing the authentic confidence that separates thriving entrepreneurs from those paralyzed by fear. Plus, Mike shares a hilarious (and humbling) childhood story involving a Superman costume, illustrating how to step into your own “superpower” even when you don’t feel like a superhero.
Through relatable stories and hard-won insights, Mike delivers practical strategies that consultants, business owners, and high performers can use right away to navigate self-doubt, embrace their unique purpose, and turn imposter syndrome into fuel for action.
