In this episode of Her Unshakeable Confidence, hosts Simone and Olivia Knego have a raw and honest conversation about dealing with pressure, imposter syndrome, and the importance of self-care. Olivia opens up about the challenges of law school, the overwhelming workload, and the struggle of comparing herself to others. Together, they unpack how stress can build up when we neglect ourselves and why prioritizing even small moments of self-care can make all the difference.
Simone offers wisdom on shifting focus to what we can control, rather than being consumed by external pressures. They also reflect on the unrealistic expectations placed on high-achievers and the necessity of redefining success on our own terms. The episode ends with key realizations about the power of self-awareness, resilience, and making time for self-care—even in the busiest seasons of life.
Actionable Takeaways
Imposter syndrome is normal. Feeling like you don’t belong doesn’t mean you aren’t capable or worthy.
Focus on what you can control. You can’t change everything, but you can take the next step in front of you.
Redefine success. It’s not about being perfect—it’s about learning, growing, and doing your best.
Make self-care a daily habit. Even 10 minutes a day can help reset your mindset and prevent burnout.
Comparison steals joy. Your journey is yours alone. Stop measuring yourself against others and trust your own path.
