Ever feel like you don't deserve the job, title, paycheck, or platform you've worked your ass off for? It's that nagging voice that whispers “you're a fraud” — aka, imposter syndrome. And spoiler: it's not proof you don't belong, it's proof you've levelled up.In this episode, I take you on a walk with me (literally) to unpack the psychology behind imposter syndrome — why your brain freaks out when your achievements outpace your self-image, how comparison traps and perfectionism fuel the fraud feeling, and what I've personally done to shut it down. From being the youngest in the room in my career, to stepping into leadership roles I didn't think I deserved, to battling the inner critic around content creation, I share the exact mindset shifts and “reps” that helped me build real confidence.If you've ever felt like you're faking it, this one's for you.By the end, you'll know:Why imposter syndrome hits ambitious people the hardestHow to reframe it as a sign of growth, not weaknessThe simple practice of “reps” that rewires your confidenceWhy faking it isn't fraud—it's fuelImposter syndrome doesn't mean you don't belong. It means you're in the right arena, and you deserve to be there!!---⊹ LINKS ⊹

Many years ago, I introduced a new format that alongside our regular episodes called “Lessons for Hannah.” Hannah is my daughter and one of the main inspirations for the Misfit Entrepreneur. I wanted to have a place where she could go and learn from her daddy and his Misfit friends throughout her life….even after I am gone. If you haven't listened to the first episode of "Lessons for Hannah," I urge you to as it gives some more background and tells the amazing story of how Hannah came to be in our lives. Lessons for Hannah are short, very useful, and sometimes comical lessons, that I want to share with you and give to Hannah to help in your lives. Because I want Hannah to have these for her life, I'm going to speak as though I am talking directly to her. These episodes are a lot of fun and if you think there is a lesson that we should include in these episodes, please don't hesitate to send it over to us at support@misfitentrepreneur.com.

Have you ever wondered why goal setting feels off or why chasing success leaves you more drained than fulfilled? This episode unpacks the role of the ego center in Human Design—also known as the will or heart center—and how it impacts your relationship with goals, achievement, and prosperity. Through the lens of a client's powerful question, you'll discover what it means to have an open or undefined ego and why traditional approaches to motivation and money don't always work for everyone. Nicole explains how the ego center is connected to willpower and material success, and why trying to prove yourself or force results often backfires. If you've struggled with consistency, felt pressured by “shoulds,” or wondered whether you can be successful without chasing external validation, this conversation will offer clarity and a new perspective. You'll walk away with insight into how alignment—not ego—leads to sustainable success. By the end, you'll understand why honoring your unique design is the key to reaching your goals with more ease, freedom, and fulfillment. Tune in now!

This week's Misfit Entrepreneur is Charles Byrd. If you've ever wanted to scale your business without spending a fortune on ads—and do it while building powerful, lasting relationships—Charles is the guy you want to learn from. Charles started his career in Silicon Valley as a director at a billion-dollar software company, where he earned the nickname “The Chaos Killer” for his ability to simplify and streamline complex projects. But despite his success, he felt the pull to do something more impactful—and live life on his own terms. So he walked away and launched his own productivity course. The twist? He didn't just build a course—he built a system for marketing and scaling it through joint ventures. In fact, Charles became so effective at booking JV promotions—2 to 6 per week consistently—that entrepreneurs and companies began hiring him to teach them his signature approach. Today, Charles is one of the most sought-after experts on joint venture partnerships and referral marketing, helping business owners grow faster, create leveraged income, and build rock-solid systems to scale. charlesbyrd.com/ Show Sponsors: Entrepreneurs, what if there was a way to know you were hiring the best salespeople to drive your business?

You'll learn her “parachute at the summit” analogy, a simple Power Five routine, and why working only on skills/behavior rarely fixes an identity-level problem. (And stay til the end for a special opportunity!!!)
What really makes today a good day? It's rarely the new car, new job, or shiny achievement. More often, real joy and peace come from making progress—the quiet confidence that your actions match the life you say you want. In this episode, I talk about aligning what you do with what you desire. Because if your habits don't reflect your goals, one of two things needs to change: your behavior, or what you claim to want.

Not only is Trump succeeding, he is exceeding expectations as well. But the Left is not going down without a fight. Victor Davis Hanson explains the challenges being poised against Trump's counterrevolution, and what he believes are the next steps on today's episode of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.” “ The symptoms of the progressive project are not just the Democrats exercising power in Congress or holding the White House, it's how they get that power. And they get that power through PBS and NPR, now defunded; cable news and slanted network news, now under assault when they lie and defame and face court ramifications. “ The majority of the American people oppose [Democrats'] agenda. And they do this through the bureaucracies, through the media, through the universities, through the popular culture. And these are the very sources that Donald Trump is asking them to reform. And the government is going to shrink. The government's gonna get out of the media business. The government's gonna take a hard look at universities, who want and obtain federal funds.”
