Ready to *pew pew pew* that little guy out of your brain. YOU ARE WORTHY. YOU ARE SPECIAL. But I totally get it and am with you through it ❤️ Thanks for being vulnerable.
Really like that you slice with drawings and words…very cool! I know how that imposter syndrome creeps in. Glad you are working on getting rid of that voice in your head.
Daily. Literally daily. So I feel this (as I am sure many do who are in roles/careers that lead to performance, if that makes sense).
I have also long wondered about the female experience of imposter syndrome; and where it potentially may collide with patriarchy, and this idea we aren’t supposed to feel like we can?
Considering that I was first introduced to its formal name by my friend, who is 1 of few women in science in her field, yes, I think that has a contributing factor. We work on it together, though. Good to find a gal gang that empowers each other! Thanks for your comment 🙂
A remarkably succinct capture of a very familiar and widespread phenomenon. It is a process to break the habit. Staying true to yourself, your values, ambitions and causes steadies us. It’s why I say, feed your integrity at every opportunity.
The placement of “But I’m working on it” is powerful….in the corner, hard to see at first, but in the spot where one’s eye would move to the next panel….hopefully a prediction of what’s to come. I think it’s something just about all of us are working on. Thanks for the reminder not to let that little red guy stay.

You are so very worthy. Why do we hold on to criticisms and have such a hard time accepting praise?

Thanks! Writing causes another instance of imposter syndrome, which is why I draw instead 😛
