Overcome Imposter Syndrome and Burnout w/ Gladian Rivera - Ep. 165
This week, Ken sits down with Gladian Rivera, founder and CEO of Obsidian Rising, LLC. Gladian’s organization is dedicated to helping women entrepreneurs overcome burnout and lead with renewed purpose, clarity, and confidence. Drawing on her wealth of experience in leadership and trauma-informed program design, Gladian shares deep insights on the roots of imposter syndrome—especially among women and minorities—and offers practical advice for reframing negative self-talk, building confidence, and detaching self-worth from titles and roles.
Together, they dive into the realities of burnout, the importance of aligning your identity with your core values rather than external validation, and the powerful impact of resilience through failure. This conversation isn’t just for women or entrepreneurs—it’s a universal message about claiming your worth, harnessing self-trust, and finding fulfillment beyond your professional achievements. Whether you’re struggling with feeling like an imposter, searching for greater alignment, or seeking inspiration to embrace your own journey, this episode is packed with empowering stories and actionable tools to help you get ‘unstuck’ and move forward with authenticity and self-assurance.
