beyond imposter syndrome
2020
This series is an exploration of the ways I can move beyond imposter syndrome: The wall I’m stuck behind has a crack. A new sprout will grow from the crack. I will shatter the barrier I feel holding me back with a burst of powerful light. The power of my accomplishments will crack the wall and bring it down.

Discomfort brews inside my body: terror and excitement. Face hot. Heart racing. Stomach tingling. At once I’m eager to walk into this new space before me — a room I’ve longed to enter. If I could just saunter through the doorway with confidence and surety. Yet, I’m terrified I’m unprepared and will stumble and fall into an abyss. What if someone realizes I’m a fraud? That I don’t belong in this room?

I lost my way with this piece and searched for a new way to unite the layers. Sometimes that is the way during the journey too. I have to find another way, but the way is always there.
