Turning Imposter Syndrome Into Your Next Big Win with Lisa Simone Richards | EP 477
Manage episode 472512278 series 2921247
How do you know when it’s time to pivot—really pivot? And more importantly, how do you navigate the fear and uncertainty that comes with it?
In this episode, I sit down with Lisa Simone Richards, co-founder and CEO of Pearl Spark Pages, a luxury stationery brand designed to help female founders push past imposter syndrome and build self-trust through mindful self-reflection.
Lisa spent two decades as a top publicist helping women-led startups gain visibility—until she found herself facing the same imposter syndrome her clients battled.
Instead of letting it hold her back, she built something completely new: A journaling framework designed for high-achieving women entrepreneurs who are constantly pushing for more, yet rarely pause to recognize their own brilliance.
We get real about:
✨ The moment Lisa realized she couldn’t keep pushing the same boulder uphill
✨ Why even the most seasoned entrepreneurs feel like frauds (and how to break the cycle)
✨ The small daily habit that shifts you from self-doubt to self-leadership
If you’ve ever felt resistance around what’s next in your business, this episode will challenge you to trust yourself in bigger ways.
