このエピソードについて
Confidence isn't certainty — it's the belief that you can handle whatever comes next. In this episode, Lillian Liang-Emlet and clinician-turned-executive-coach Vicki Landers explore how imposter syndrome takes hold in healthcare, why failure builds skill rather than undermining it, and how surrounding yourself with the right influences creates lasting self-trust for clinicians navigating leadership and career transitions.
