"Imposter syndrome isn’t always loud. Sometimes, it’s the quiet pressure to prove yourself, the subtle doubts that whisper, ‘Am I really enough?’" ~ Rochelle Marie
In this episode of Her Leadership Coach, Rochelle dives into the lesser-known side of imposter syndrome—the hidden imposter. This isn’t the bold, in-your-face doubt that screams you’re a fraud. It’s the quieter, more insidious version that shows up in over-preparation, hesitating to take opportunities, or feeling like you constantly need to do more to prove your worth.
We’ll explore:
What hidden imposter syndrome looks like and how it differs from the more recognisable form.Why high-achieving women are particularly vulnerable to this quiet self-doubt.Practical strategies to shift from self-doubt to self-trust, including how to reconnect with your inner champion and take aligned action.How to lead with confidence and inspire others by embracing your authentic worth.Plus, Rochelle shares why recognising these patterns isn’t about fixing yourself—it’s about rewriting the story imposter syndrome has been telling you.

"Because even just saying those words, you know, women, power, women influence, can create a visceral response in people because they're not normally words that are associated together." ~ Emma Mason
In this powerful episode, I sat down with Emma Mason, a success coach who specialises in helping women navigate career crossroads. Emma's journey from burning out in public service to becoming a champion for women's leadership is both inspiring and relatable. We discuss why traditional corporate leadership models often don't serve women, and how we can tap into our unique power sources instead of trying to fit into a system designed for men.
The 4 key things you'll learn from this episode:
Why women's natural cycles and rhythms are actually leadership superpowers, not limitationsHow to recognize when you're at a career crossroads and what to do about itThe importance of rest as a leadership strategyHow reconnecting with your body's wisdom can transform your leadership styleOur conversation explores the fascinating connection between our bodies, leadership, and career success. Emma shares groundbreaking insights about how women can work with their natural 28-day cycles instead of against them, and why understanding our own rhythms is crucial for sustainable leadership. We also discuss how women often feel pressured to "squeeze" themselves into traditional leadership roles, and why it's time to rewrite these rules.
If this resonates with you, especially if you're feeling stuck at a career crossroads or sensing there must be a better way to lead, you're not alone. More and more women are discovering that authentic leadership starts with honouring our own wisdom and creating success on our terms.

"When we try and make everybody into this cookie cutter, this is what a leader should look like, we lose the effectiveness and the potency of what is actually their skills." - Ana Brooks
In this week's episode of Her Leadership Coach, I had the pleasure of chatting with Ana Brooks, a "sole purpose activator" who's all about helping women in leadership roles crush it without burning out. We dove deep into the world of morning routines and how they can set you up for success in your career and beyond.
Here's what you'll learn from this episode:
Why a personalised morning routine is crucial for women in leadershipHow to break free from outdated, masculine-focused approaches to leadershipSteps to create a morning routine that aligns with your unique needs and goalsThe importance of embracing your individual leadership styleAna and I had a blast debunking the myth that there's a one-size-fits-all approach to morning routines. We talked about how many of the traditional routines we see are actually designed with men in mind, and why it's so important for us ladies to shake things up and find what works for us. Ana shared some fantastic insights on how to build a routine that sets you up for the day you want, not just responding to whatever comes your way.
One of the things that really stuck with me was Ana's emphasis on flexibility. She encouraged us to give ourselves permission to let go of rigid routines and instead focus on creating a morning that moves with us, not against us. This is especially crucial for women in leadership roles who often juggle multiple responsibilities and need to adapt to ever-changing circumstances.
If you're ready to level up your leadership game and create a morning routine that truly empowers you, this episode is a must-listen.

"Leadership isn’t something you become by learning a few skills. It’s about embodying who you truly are and leading from that place of authenticity." ~ Rochelle Marie
Welcome to this episode of Her Leadership Coach, where I dive deep into the journey from knowledge to knowing, and ultimately, to being an embodied leader. Too often, we think that gathering more skills and credentials will make us ready for leadership. But the truth is, leadership is about much more than what you know—it’s about how you align with who you are at your core.
In this episode, I’ll take you through The Embodied Leader’s Journey—a framework that will help you understand the stages of leadership growth, from those first steps of self-doubt to fully embracing your inner champion and leading with ease.
If you’ve ever felt like something is missing in your leadership journey, or you’re wondering why more knowledge doesn’t seem to translate into confidence, this episode is for you.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
The difference between gathering knowledge and truly embodying leadership.Why focusing on quick-fix leadership courses might leave you feeling stuck.The five stages of The Embodied Leader’s Journey and what to expect at each phase.How self-compassion and vulnerability are key to real leadership growth.I also share part of my own leadership journey—how I spent years thinking more knowledge would make me a better leader, and what I discovered was actually holding me back.
Tune in to reflect on where you are in your own leadership journey and start stepping into your true power as a leader.

For aspiring leaders and women in corporate careers, the ability to speak confidently in public is a crucial skill that can propel your professional growth. The "Her Leadership Coach" podcast featuring Silke Herald, a clinical hypnotherapist, offers invaluable insights into conquering this common fear that often holds women back from reaching their full potential in leadership roles.
With over 15 years of experience in helping women overcome anxiety, fears, phobias and self-limiting beliefs, Silke blends science, practicality and warmth in equal measure and treats every person as a unique individual. It is such a relief to clients that with Silke they finally feel really seen and heard.
Silke's personal journey from social anxiety to becoming a hypnotherapy practitioner is a testament to the power of addressing our subconscious beliefs. As she explains, the fear of public speaking is a learned behaviour, often rooted in childhood experiences or significant emotional events. For women in leadership positions, understanding and overcoming these underlying thought patterns can be transformative, allowing you to communicate your ideas with confidence and authority in corporate settings.
One of the most powerful takeaways from Silke's interview is the importance of authenticity in public speaking. As she wisely notes, "It is far more important to be you and to actually have something like set an intention for. What do you want the audience to get out of this?" This advice is particularly relevant for women in leadership who may feel pressure to emulate male colleagues. By embracing your unique voice and perspective, you can connect more genuinely with your audience and make a lasting impact.
The techniques Silke shares, such as pacing thoughts and leaning into physical sensations of anxiety, offer practical tools for aspiring leaders to manage their public speaking fears. These strategies, combined with the understanding that most people are too preoccupied with their own nervousness to notice yours, can help you approach speaking opportunities with greater confidence and poise.

"Being the sidekick in your own story isn’t just about staying in the background—it’s about letting your doubts and fears dictate your actions. And that’s why it’s so important to recognise when those fears are holding you back, and to challenge them."
Episode Overview:
In this episode of Her Leadership Coach, we’re diving into the concept of the hero’s journey and how it applies to leadership. While many of us are familiar with the idea of the hero in movies and books, what happens when we bring that concept into our own lives? For many women, stepping into the hero role can feel daunting, and we often find ourselves playing the sidekick instead. Rochelle shares her thoughts on why this happens, personal stories from her leadership journey, and how to find the balance between stepping up and stepping back.Takeaways:
Why so many women feel more comfortable in the sidekick role and the cultural and personal reasons behind it.Leadership is not about always being in the spotlight—it’s about recognising when it’s your time to step up and when it’s time to let others shine.Your inner saboteur can keep you from being the hero of your own journey, but recognising and challenging that voice can lead to growth and empowerment.Sometimes being a great leader means stepping back and allowing others to take the lead, creating a more powerful and effective team dynamic.Call to Action: Reflect on where you’ve been playing the sidekick in your own life or career. What would it look like if you stepped into the hero role? How would that change your approach to leadership?

"Everything that we do, we have put out there internally first. So everything starts inside."
Linda Yates' insightful conversation with Rochelle on this weeks episode informs us that effective communication is an inside out, and outside in, job. One of the key highlights from the discussion is Linda's emphasis on the "embodied condition" – the powerful influence our chosen attire can have on our mindset, behavior, and how others perceive us. Linda also talks about how effective communication also includes a strong sense of self-awareness and self-acceptance.This reinforces the notion that communication truly is an "inside and outside job," requiring alignment between our internal thoughts, emotions, and the image we project externally.
Linda shared a personal anecdote about catching herself in a moment of self-criticism and reframing it with a gentle, understanding response as a poignant example of how we can diffuse negative self-talk and cultivate greater self-love. As Linda wisely notes, "If you talk to yourself like your best friend, then you're going to give yourself empowering messages." Techniques like mirror work, journaling about accomplishments, and consciously celebrating one's strengths can be invaluable tools for women seeking to build their confidence and authenticity as leaders.
