Imposter Syndrome

Am I an imposter or is it truth?

Do you question your ability?

Your ability to coach, your ability to pursue or know your passion. Your ability to do your job, to be in a career.

Yet when doing anything else, you’re not happy and want to change what someone else has already created.

That was me. I was happiest when I was creating something that I felt truly passionate about. It drove me forward every day. I lived it, I breathed it and thought about it.

I knew what I was doing was the best for everyone. I jumped, metaphorically speaking, off that cliff each day. Knowing that I would land safely on the bottom of the next mountain top. It was fun and rejuvenating.

I believed in me, I had a vision.

So why now do I believe that I can’t do that again?

Why do I feel like an imposter?

As I reflect back on the time that I created CORD, I saw no barriers, I only saw opportunities. I just went with the flow. Planned, prepared, made phone calls and moved my vision forward.

CORD was a different kind of belief. I was looking to change a system or bring something into a system that didn’t exist. It was unique.

I now believe things aren’t happening fast enough.

Where do I find that unshakable belief within myself once again?

Am I making a difference this time? I have been told by several people that my words are amazing, and they love to hear what I have to say.

Creating gratitude statements for all my accomplishments gives me a feel-good- feeling.

How do I differentiate myself from others who do similar work that I do? Or am I doing it and just not seeing it? Am I creating something that is unique once again?

I know I have wisdom and messages to share.

Enough with getting validation from others. This is my time and I’m owning it!

Believe in yourself, believe in what you’re doing right now.

This is my true life’s path, so how can I be an imposter?

As I look back at all the blogs, poems and inspirational messages I wrote. I realize I am not an imposter. These are all the raindrops I have created. The wisdom I have put out to the universe comes from my heart and listening to Devine messages.

Connecting once again to the energies that I have created with and for Head to Heart, I now see it is helpful, beautiful and wisdom-based. My desire is to share and serve my knowledge, to help others create their best lives.

It is most important to look back at what you have achieved. It gives you the momentum to carry forward once again.

I have been told to create a vision board, thinking what’s the point, it’s a waste of time. Maybe my vision board is different than what others create. I found out today that I need to read what I have created. As I read, it blows me away and I am in awe of my own words of wisdom. They are so healing, so cathartic and uplifting. How can I believe this not be working? When everything I see and read tells me it is working.

I’m not an imposter, I’m the real thing!

I have created my own technique of unshakable belief.

I have come into my own and want others to hear what I have learned. As I was growing up, I was taught that just speaking of success or accomplishment, was bragging. I’m still getting comfortable with accepting it as a celebration and it’s ok to speak about my success. If others are triggered, it’s their issue, not mine. I need to own it! I am owing it!

My goal is to remember my why –

We all need to be brave enough to open our hearts and speak our truth.

 And, that my dear friends is what I am doing.


I ask you today to take the time to remember your WHY. Remember who you are. To know you are following your true life’s path. That right here right now is your moment your time to have your heart’s desire, your success, and your all.
