In this thought-provoking episode of BizBlend, host Sana sits down with transformational guide Markus Neukom to reframe the narrative around imposter syndrome. This isn’t your typical “confidence hack” talk—instead, Markus dismantles the illusion of imposter syndrome as a flaw and reveals how it signals a deeper misalignment with our true selves.
Whether you’re a founder, high achiever, or quietly doubting your success behind the scenes, this conversation will help you shift perspectives and recognize the cost of masking your true self. Learn how pseudo-imposter syndrome creeps into leadership, hiring, branding, and culture—and why the real work begins with reclaiming your original design.
If you've ever asked yourself, “Is this all there is?”—this episode is your invitation to go deeper, strip the illusions, and lead from alignment, not approval.

Key Takeaways :
Imposter syndrome is not a flaw; it’s a signal of misalignment from your true self, often fueled by societal illusions and false beliefs.
Markus introduces the idea of the “gremlin at the belief mixing desk”—a metaphor for how self-doubt perpetuates itself through internal programming.
True healing from imposter syndrome starts with recognizing that most people don’t really know themselves, and that’s where the work begins.
Misalignment in leadership directly impacts hiring, team culture, retention, and even brand strategy—leaders often hire mediocrity because they fear the competence of others.
Stillness, not action, is where real answers lie. Markus explains how coherence between thought and heart unlocks the soul’s voice and opens the path back to authenticity.
Healing imposter syndrome requires letting go of identity formed through suffering or perfectionism—a journey many resist because it requires releasing long-held illusions.
