Hi, I'm Shaina

I’m a Self-Discovery Coach, Pisces and interior design enthusiast living in sunny Los Angeles. I help women lost in their careers find their true purpose.

Have you ever chalked up your success to “luck,” when you actually worked really hard?

Do you find it difficult to receive praise?

Do you fear that people will “find out” and expose you for who you really are…a fraud?

I caught myself struggling with this a few weeks back at a friends house, which is why I’m thrilled that Sarah, a fellow viewer, reached out for advice on the topic.

Here’s the irony. I immediately thought, “I don’t think I’m qualified to answer this question. They’re going to see right through me.”

Yup, there it is again…the imposter syndrome (It’s more common than you think).

So, in today’s Q&A video, I break down the fear of being “exposed” and how to overcome it.

My guilty pleasure is Bravo!
Real Housewives, Southern Charm, Vanderpump, Million Dollar Listing...I watch it all.
I'm a sucker for anything nostalgic.
I still watch reruns of Dawson's Creek on the regular
I know the lyrics to almost every 90's song.
Nathan says it's my hidden talent
My happy place?
Summer days. I love the beach, being tan, cookouts and country music!
Monica Gellar is my alter ego.
Cleaning and organizing are my therapy
I always have a candle burning at home.
I have a cabinet full of them.
My favorite movie?
Father of the Bride.
If I weren't a life coach...
I'd probably be an interior designer or do something in TV/ film production. Any chance I get to visit sets, I'm all over it!
