Imposter Syndrome = Comfort Zone 🤯



Yep! I said it. Your Imposter Syndrome is in fact your comfort zone. You are comfortable carrying that self-doubt around. We call it a comfort zone, but really it can eventually become your "discomfort zone" because you are left feeling dissatisfied.


There is no judgement. We all struggle with this from time to time. & I am here to help you push past that so that you can go from "survival mode" to thriving. This is ONE of my specialties.


Sometimes, we can convince ourselves that we are doing enough because we've reached these external markers of success. The reality is that, we could be accomplishing so much more, if we were to push past the imposter syndrome, that causes us to question who are we to be THAT great.





One of my favorite quotes of all time is;


Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small doesn’t serve the world. There’s nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won’t feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do.
-Marianne Williamson

& This alone is what I believe many people struggle with. Between a society that shoves it down people's throats (marginalized groups in particular) to be "humble" & whatever we've internalized on a personal level due to our life experiences, we don't even know how to radically accept and walk in our greatness. This internal talk track of doubt is constantly reinforced. Feeling inherently good about our talents and what we have to contribute to the world might seem unrealistic. & then consequence of us playing small, staying in those comfort zones, & being "realistic" is debilitating stagnation.


Debilitating stagnation leads to existential crises, feeling unfulfilled, hopelessness, feeling stuck & just wondering, "What is it all for?"


In therapy, we would assess where your particular imposter syndrome is rooted and dig it up. Because, what is "realistic" anyway?


Realistic is you living a fulfilling life in your glow, bro/sis! 💁🏾‍♀️ ✨
