Have you ever felt like you're the only one struggling with self-doubt at work? Maybe you’ve wondered why office politics seem so complicated or how some people seem to influence so effortlessly?

The secret is that every day at work, we're surrounded by psychological dynamics - internal and external. There's the voice in our head second-guessing our decisions, the subtle power plays in meetings, the unspoken expectations that shape our behavior and others. Yet most of us are dropped into our careers with zero insight into these invisible forces.

That changes today. Welcome to Psychology at Work. I’m your host Melody Wilding, licensed social worker, human behavior professor, and author of two books: Trust Yourself: Stop Overthinking and Channel Your Emotions for Success at Work and Managing Up: How to Get What You Need From the People in Charge. With a background as an emotion researcher, therapist, and after over 13 years of coaching thousands of executives and leaders across the world, there’s nothing I love more than helping emotionally intelligent people like you use superpower to make work better for themselves and everyone around them.

Because here’s the thing, technical skills will only get you so far in your career. It's mastering your own psychology and understanding that of others that will truly make or break your success.

While your coding skills might land you a job, it's your ability to manage stress and stay focused under pressure that will help you meet tight deadlines and deliver high-quality work.

Your financial acumen might get you noticed, but it's your ability to navigate stakeholder relationships and office politics that will help you secure buy-in for your ideas.

Your strategic thinking might earn you a promotion, but it's your self-awareness and ability to regulate your emotions that will make you an effective leader people want to follow.

The title of this show is a playful nod to our double focus. First, we explore how psychology operates in professional settings. But second, in each episode you’re going to walk away with practical insights that you can put to work right away.

I know firsthand how challenging it can be to navigate the workplace when you're sensitive, empathetic, and prone to overthinking. That's why I created this podcast that brings you the tools and insights I wish I'd had earlier in my career.

Get ready, because you’re going to learn how to master the ‘silent rules’ of human behavior so you can achieve career success without sacrificing inner peace.

    Dec 23 2025

    You work hard, get promoted, receive praise—but there’s still a part of you that feels like it’s all temporary, that maybe it happened by chance. In this episode, Melody reveals how imposter syndrome goes beyond simple self-doubt. It's about how we process positive experiences, often attributing success to luck while internalizing every small misstep as proof of inadequacy. She shares four actionable steps to help you shift your thinking

    What You’ll Discover:

    • Why your successes often feel fleeting or undeserved—and what you can do to make them truly stick
    • How imposter syndrome tricks you into downplaying achievements and amplifying self-doubt
    • How to rewire your brain to see success as a reflection of your skills rather than pure luck
    • The neuroscience behind why praise feels uncomfortable for high achievers and how to overcome it.
    • Four proven techniques to reframe how you see your achievements and start owning your success.
