Conquering Imposter Syndrome: How I Combated Thinking I Wasn’t Enough

About this session

Back in 2017, I found myself depressed. Fresh out of a toxic relationship, with a failed vintage boutique, a mountain of debt and an impounded car. I am a product of extreme generational poverty and I somehow became what I swore I'd never become. A single mom in the food-stamp line. I got a job at Starbucks because it was in walking-distance & may as well done so with a bag over my head, I was so ashamed. I so desperately wanted to leave my reality behind and create something bigger. I felt a tugging at my heart that there was something bigger meant for me. This couldn't be it. So I jumped in and fought for the life I wanted.

Just six months after I'd gotten myself into this pickle of a reality, I was raking in 7k months with my branding and wedding photography business. I pushed myself, I accepted my shortcomings and nurtured my superpowers.

In this chat I want you to walk away with:

  • A clear plan of what your why is and how to use that to fuel your success
  • A newfound friendship with fear and imposter syndrome. You can work together!
  • Tips to turn your Instagram followers into paying customers. No matter your following, no matter your business!
