Mindset, Confidence & Entrepreneurship | How to Overcome Imposter Syndrome and Burnout | Fully Stoked Podcast with Lou Tandazo

In this episode of the Fully Stoked Podcast, host Sarah Stokes sits down with mindset coach and entrepreneur Lu Tandazo, founder of Dream Into Success, to talk about the powerful role mindset plays in entrepreneurship, leadership, confidence, and personal growth. Lu shares her inspiring journey, from teaching French after moving to the United States from France, to transitioning into HR leadership, and ultimately launching her own mindset coaching business after working with legendary personal development mentor Bob Proctor. Together, Sarah and Lu dive deep into topics that affect nearly every entrepreneur and professional today, including imposter syndrome, burnout, self-doubt, confidence, identity, and the pressure of hustle culture. Lu explains why mindset is far more than “thinking positively.” It’s about embodying a new identity, shifting the internal narrative we tell ourselves, and learning to make decisions from the perspective of the person we want to become. This episode also explores: • Why even highly successful people experience imposter syndrome • How identity shapes productivity and success • Why burnout often comes from mental overwhelm—not workload • The myth of hustle culture and why doing less can produce better results • How to sell your services without feeling pushy or salesy • How failure can become the most powerful growth tool in business • Practical mindset exercises for overcoming self-judgment and moving forward Lu also shares how entrepreneurs can choose the right coach and why intuition plays a major role in that decision. If you're an entrepreneur, business owner, or professional looking to grow your confidence, increase productivity, and build a more fulfilling life and business, this conversation will leave you with practical insights you can start applying today.
