Actress and author Stéphanie Szostak / @stephshortstak has graced the silver screen alongside Hollywood heavyweights like Meryl Streep and Robert Downey Jr. in blockbusters like The Devil Wears Prada and Iron Man 3. But even with her impressive resume, Szostak has battled her fair share of self-doubt and impostor syndrome.

In this episode, we'll dive into how Szostak overcame her own mental hurdles to achieve success in the cutthroat world of acting. As the author of Selfish: Step Into a Journey of Self-Discovery to Revive Confidence, Joy, and Meaning, Szostak shares the insights she's gained on mental fitness from her personal journey.
