Episode 365: DON DIABLO "The Visionary of Future House on Imposter Syndrome & Humanizing A.I." This week on @RoadPodcast, the crew sits down with future house pioneer @DonDiablo for a deep and personal conversation. At 01:55, Don talks about running on little sleep before his Pier 19 show and why NYC remains his biggest market. By 06:55, he explains why he avoids repeating sets, preferring Tomorrowland's smaller, darker stages over the main stage. At 12:20, Don reflects on his teenage years in the Dutch scene, from being taken advantage of as a young producer to being labeled a “weirdo” by peers. He admits that sometimes he hates being Don Diablo, finding true acceptance only through his fans. At 18:10, he recalls his production roots and the joy of creating purely for fun. By 24:55, the tone shifts as Don shares a powerful story about his father's illness, the lessons from their final conversations, and how this shaped his outlook on time, purpose, and music. He recalls writing songs like “The Artist Inside” as a tribute to his father, and performing it at his funeral, the most difficult moment of his career. At 37:55, Don speaks on the therapeutic nature of songwriting, before offering his perspective on AI at 44:01, viewing it not as a threat, but as a tool to make creativity even more human. Closing out at 1:01:44, Don dives into his Hexagon label, the video for “Anytime”, and the contracts he gave artists.

Here's what you'll hear in this episode: ✨ The difference between imposter syndrome and energetic misalignment
In this episode, we wrap up a short focus on the imposter syndrome. Listen in to learn two practical ways you can fight the battle against the imposter syndrome.
Key TakeawaysCoaching ≠ outperforming. Performance expertise and coaching expertise are different muscles.Discomfort is data. If growth feels easy, you're probably not growing.Trust follows vulnerability. Coaching conversations require safety, time, and honesty.Aim feedback at the work. Focus on the task/approach, not the person.Decide your mode. Coach, teach, or direct based on the question, urgency, and learning goal.Beat imposter syndrome with action. If the finish line is fuzzy, take the next step and practice.
Join us for another Episode of the Scrap, this time with Marshall Boyd, a 23-year veteran of two small fire departments south of Houston. We discuss imposter syndrome, sharing how he's worked to impact his corner of the fire service despite feeling like “no one from nowhere.” Marshall explores the shift in firefighting tactics over the years, and the process of making the change... from fiberglass poles to modern tools, and the importance of perspective in adapting to change. We discuss and compare career and volunteer firefighting, the mission remains the same regardless of pay. Marshall also covers leadership as influence, especially in volunteer settings where there's no leverage, and why making the job personal drives his work. Expect insights on through-the-lock forcible entry and the challenges of moving from the truck to the buggy. And as always... our best laid plans were beautifully derailed by the awesome questions from the live audience!!!!

What is imposter syndrome? Listen in and find out! In this episode, we continue the conversation about the imposter syndrome and what to do about it.
Whether you're consciously aware of it or not, one of the biggest obstacles creative entrepreneurs face is: How to overcome imposter syndrome to make more money?That sneaky little voice of doubt in your head can be driving SO many decisions if we don't deal with it directly and take the reins. The doubting if our offer will sell… doubting if there are people in our audience with the money to buy…It can become a self fulfilling prophecy. Because when we listen to the voice that says that YOU AREN'T GOOD ENOUGH, we don't make the bold moves, we don't trust our ideas enough to actually follow through, and of course the results don't materialize. I've been having these conversations a lot with clients, friends and peers over the past week, so I decided to make a powerful Public Service Announcement to remind you that the voice of doubt is NOT YOURS. It's a cultural disease that should be IGNORED AT ALL COSTS! In this week's Creative Magic Club podcast episode we unpack the roots of our doubt, the energy leak of comparison and the utter waste of time that is imposter syndrome. Overcoming this sneaky resistance-machine is one of the most powerful ways to make extra money online because you make more money when you listen to the voice that BELIEVES YOU CAN!

Unlock Your True Potential by Asking This One Question This episode of the Rich Mind Podcast poses a powerful question to kickstart your biggest goals: "If you knew you couldn't fail and wouldn't be judged, what's the one thing you would do today?" Randy and Greg use this thought experiment to dissect the self-doubt, limiting beliefs, and fear of judgment that paralyze us. The conversation evolves into a real-time coaching session where Greg shares his entrepreneurial dream of starting a coaching business and the internal resistance holding him back. Listeners will get a transparent look at how to identify limiting beliefs, the importance of taking small, initial steps to build momentum, and the power of aligning your actions with your authentic self to find true fulfillment. Key Takeaways: The question "What would you do if you couldn't fail?" is a powerful tool to bypass your inner critic and identify your true desires. Self-doubt and limiting beliefs (e.g., "Why would someone hire me?") are the primary obstacles preventing us from taking action, not a lack of resources or skill. You don't need to know every step of the journey to begin. The first step is to simply start and trust that the right people and resources will appear. To overcome the overwhelm of a big goal, break it down into the smallest possible action you can take today. The feeling of joy and fulfillment is a strong indicator that you are on the right path and aligned with your purpose. Leveraging your innate skills (like networking and listening) can provide a unique angle for a new venture you're passionate about. Sharing your goals with a trusted inner circle can provide clarity, encouragement, and the "kick in the butt" needed to get started. Questions Answered in This Episode: What is the most powerful question you can ask yourself to overcome fear and self-doubt? How do you identify the specific limiting beliefs that are holding you back? What is the first, smallest step you can take to start building a new business or pursuing a dream? How do you know if a new career path is truly aligned with your purpose? Why is it so important to have a support system or coach when chasing a big goal? How can you use free tools like AI to get started and build momentum? How do you overcome the fear of judgment from others when you start something new? What is the "ripple effect" and how can helping one person impact thousands?

We've all met somebody—and been there ourselves—where no matter how much success you've had, you still feel like you're about to get found out. Like it's not enough. Like eventually the mask slips. This episode gets to the core of that feeling, builds off our previous episode on imposter phenomenon, and most importantly gives you tools to get out of your own head so you can quit playing small. The goal: to stop letting that internal echo drive you toward self-sabotage, avoidance, or holding back when you know you've got more to give. Inside, you'll learn: •What's actually at the root of imposter syndrome (and why success doesn't cure it). •Practical ways to interrupt the self-doubt loop before it derails you. •How to reframe your achievements so they fuel you instead of haunt you. •Simple strategies to build confidence through action, not overthinking. If you've ever felt like you're capable of more but stuck in your own head, this one's for you.
