The chance to discover where my true passions lie has just been granted. It’s the first time I have had no job in almost…20 years! 🤭 And 12 months after some too full on for words (on social media) family shit, I am ready for this opportunity to figure out where my life is going.

Imposter syndrome isn't real. Imposter phenomenon is very real.
Imposter phenomenon is the combination of two things:
1) the belief that I know less things than others around me.
2) the belief that if this is found out, that I will experience harm from it.
In short, it's about psychological safety. It's a rational response based on the lived experience of the person feeling it, and their observation of how others are treated, it's not a shortcoming of the person experiencing it.
@greg I appreciate the offer - unfortunately it’s a series of traumatic events that are ongoing and unlikely to be resolved and talking is all I do. I just need to be able to adapt to a new reality and carry on as we were. Not easy to do.
Just don’t know how much longer I can hold it together. My current existence is so close to dissolving.
