No matter how much I achieved, I struggled with feeling like a fraud—waiting for someone to “expose” me as not good enough. This showed up in work, parenting, and even my personal healing journey. I constantly downplayed my wins and focused on my mistakes, which fueled anxiety and self-doubt. It took real work—therapy, reframing my thinking, and surrounding myself with supportive people—to shift that mindset. I learned that imposter syndrome is a sign of growth, not failure, and that my worth isn’t tied to perfection. Now, I help others recognize their value and quiet that inner critic.
